Doc Searls - Friday, February 4, 2005

Dis content

My latest Suitwatch is up. The title is Beyond "Content": Digging the New Intermediation Business. It responds to the locked-up-content issue addressed last week by Dan Gillmor, Cory Doctorow and Jay Rosen. Among other things.

Its bottom line:

...if you're in the business of intermediating the sale of the artistic goods we still call 'content', your job is facilitating relationships between artists and customers.

Thanks to Dennis Kennedy for his kind words about that one. David Jacobson too.

Bonus: two Dans

The latest Gillmor Gang is up. Special guest: Dan Bricklin, who writes about the experience here. Dan Farber is a new regular on the show too.

Also, in response, Dave's latest Morning Coffee Notes.

At last

Kaliya has a blog. Dig.

Where you at?

A friend writes to ask, Is there a tool to map bloggers?

Not knowing a better answer than Google provides, I'm passing it along to the rest of ya'll. If you know, click here, or answer on your own blog.

These go close to, but perhaps not exactly, answering the query:

1) <http://a2b.cc> will let you search for websites based on geographical position (and can list things like the nearest sites to yourself).

2) For a map of where people come from when visiting a site, see <http://kmi.open.ac.uk/projects/hitmaps/>

For example, the bottom right hand side of my own blog: <http://las.new-england.net.au/>

3) And for users of WordPress blogging software: <http://www.tamba2.org.uk/wordpress/worldpress/>

http://www.brainoff.com/geoblog/other.html describes how to set up your blog for GeoURL http://geourl.org/ (which happens to be down at the moment). http://www.geourl.info/ seems to be up and working, but it doesn't query the information automatically.

There was another tool using the same information as GeoURL, but I'm not finding it in my notes this morning.

In addition to the DC, NY and Chicago ones listed in the Google results, here's one for San Deigo: http://sandiegobloggers.com/map/

Joe Crawford wrote this as a proof of concept of using the geocode meta tags that Dave referred to.

Multimap allows you to search for blogs based on location, using metadata like (but not exactly) geourl.
