2007 Events

 Thursday, March 9, 2006 Permanent link to archive for 3/9/06.

A developer/user co-digging project 
 Rajesh Jain would like us to check out MyToday. Details:
 MyToday.com (created by us at Netcore) is a public RSS aggregator providing the latest news, views and content on a topic-based collection of feeds, called Dailies. It is simultaneously available on the web through an Ajax client and on the mobile phone in WML. Check it out and let me know what you think of it, and of enhancements you'd like to see.
 
Why peers win 
 Dinosaur-ware vs. social software is a provocative post by Don Marti that finds an inverse relationship between slideware use and actual production in software development environments. The piece is filled with one quotable line after another. Here's just one: there's a rough inverse correlation between presentation software use and whether or not I saw the company's products in actual use later.
 
Found 
 According to the new search engine Similicio.us, people who like this blog also like Steve Rubel's, followed by Om Malik's, followed by Mike Arrington's.
 Thanks to Davis at Thomas Hawk for the pointage.
 
Talk about generosity 
 I just visited Virginia Postrel's blog after too long a hiatus, and ... well, read this and this.
 [Later...] Wow: Dave Rogers too. His bottom line: If you know of someone who needs a kidney, consider becoming a donor. If I'm not mistaken, the kidney is the only major organ you can donate without giving up your life.
 
Attention to Intention 
 Phil Windley: Following the path from intention to attention. I'd blush to quote what Phil wrote there about what I wrote here, about . As usual, Phil understands stuff deeply, and takes it to new places as well.
 Just noticed that Clickety Clack wrote about The Intention Economy last August. Related (to what Clickety Clack said, not to what I wrote): The Database of Intentions.
 [Later...] Jon Udell runs with The Intention Economy too.
 
Tip of the hat 
 Britt Blaser points to the Best First Blog Post Ever, by Panama Soweto, at podslam.org. The money quote: life should seem a little easier with narration, shouldn't it?
 
Don't ask 
 Until this, I didn't know Jeeves was out of a job.
 So, naturally, we have A Job For Jeeves.
 
Full coverage 
 Jay Rosen and his students at NYU have launched , a new journalism site that works like a special section in a newspaper.
 The first 'Special is Newspaper Blogging: State of the Art, which features (among many other posts) The Best Blogging Newspapers in the U.S. (among the top 100 in circulation). They name six, led by the Houston Chronicle, the Washington Post and USA Today.
 About its top choice, the Special reports,
 The Chronicle was a runaway choice for top blogging newspaper. “The wizards of blogging in my opinion,” Andre Henry says. Points-wise, it wasn’t close. (128 to 69 for the second site.) The Chronicle is not the most adventurous in what it blogs about (exception: Bar Tab) but the site does everything well, starting with its Blogs main page, which features—before you get to any staff blogging— a section called Chron.commons, “Blogs from our Readers.” (They weren’t the only ones to do this.)
