If a blog doesn't link (or syndicate) in the forest, is it still a blog?
| | Joi is busy observing the huge differences between blogging in Korea and elsewhere in the world. |
| | Is latest post (last link) raises some interesting questions for me, which I posted over here. |
Quote du jour
| | Jamie Zawinsky: the problem with mash-ups is that once you get past "oh, that's unexpected" and "that must have been difficult", what you're left with is a dj with really fucking terrible taste in music. |
Ties
I'm almost afraid to ask
| | Have you ever heard of most sites in the right column here? Me either. What are they? |

| | To Dave Rogers (whose clever absence of a comments section or an email address requires public responses like this one): That's the way Dave Winer set up the blog at the beginning, and nobody has ever changed it. But a late edit is better than none. Thanks. |
Perspective
| | People tell me the number counts here have to be low. (One blogger tells me, "My blog gets five thousand visits a day. How could yours only get half of that or less?) Maybe because it's not as popular as some people like to think. |
| | There are two main audience measures in radio ratings: Average Quarter Hour (AQH) and Cume. One measures current listening, the other measures cumulative listening. |
| | Since this blog has been in one place for a long time (5.5 years), and it's been pointed at a lot by sources that mostly haven't moved, it has accumulated a lot of inbound links. That's what puts it at #18 in the Technorati Top 100. That's a very nice Cume. |
| | But the daily count has run from a few hundred to a few thousand ever since I started looking, about five years ago. That's a lot more than most, but a lot less than quite a few. In other words, the AQH is respectable, but not A-list, by a long shot. That's confirmed by Bloglines' current Top 200. |
| | Which is fine with me. In fact, I like it that way. I'd rather the blog be a respectable resource than popular "desination." |
Juneday
| | We have Mayday. Why not Juneday? Just wondering. |
| | I hate that time moves faster as I get older. May was a 31-day month, but I feel like it went by in a week. |
