Top Ten Sources has a great idea, an idea that the world of blogs and feeds and edge content needs. From their website:
Top 10 Sources is a directory of sites that bring you the freshest, most relevant content on the Web. We know it’s impossible for anyone to keep track of the 20 million+ online […]

BlogHer’s getting ready for the Monday launch of a new surfing guide. As one of two contributing editors in the Technology & Web domain, I’ll be covering women blogging about tech.
misbehaving.net has one of the best blogrolls around listing women tech bloggers. I figure it’s a great place to start in finding the targets of […]

Steve Rubel on Yahoo’s search capitulation: if you don’t want to be King of the Mountain like me, I’m not bothering with you. I don’t get that. If Yahoo search offers something that Steve needs right now, why not use it? Why does it matter if they scale back their goals for the service? It’s […]

I printed out some articles and downloaded a podcast. I’m scattered from skimming too many feeds, so tonight and tomorrow I’m going to focus with full attention on one thing at a time. Here’s what I’ve got lined up so far:
Clay Shirky’s article Ontology is Overrated: Categories, Links, and Tags. This is from last year. […]

Shelley at Burningbird has finally noticed my blog! I’m sad to say it was to slap me down for girlish behavior. I didn’t call out Adam Green on his use of the word chick. Worse, I seemed to celebrate it. I hate the word chick. Yeah! But I loved the idea of talking about BlogHer […]

One of my fondest memories of starting out as a computer programmer was the smelly, long-haired Berkeley dweller working as a contractor at my first job. He helped me figure out how to build real software when all I’d made before were toys. He used to routinely name files “UCantSeeMe” when he didn’t want them […]

Adam Green discovers that if you link to a blogher, she’s likely to link you back. Yeah! Shelley said guys don’t link, but I haven’t found that… I’m getting way more linking action here than I ever have in momblogland.
Adam asks, “When is the next Blogher?” It’s Friday July 28th and Saturday July 29th at […]

I’d like to take a given blog and generate an OPML feed subscription list from it. The idea is to look at their blogroll, their posts, and possibly even their commenters to get a list of who they’re reading and who pays attention to them–their neighborhood, I guess. I’d eventually like to turn it into […]

It was a pretty easy decision to drop the ASP.NET/C# class I was taking when I realized that open-source was the way to go. It’s been more difficult to think about dropping out of the web design certificate I’ve been pursuing at Sessions.edu. I began it over the summer once I realized that I wanted […]

Steve Gillmor on Marc Benioff, founder and CEO of salesforce.com:
Marc even appears to understand the fundamental value, if not yet the disruptive quality, of RSS and “social production,” where creating and provisioning apps should be “as easy as creating blogs.”
I love that idea: that anyone—programmer or not, monied or not—can think up and build a […]
