Tags on Speed: 43 Things (January 5, 2005 10:10 PM)
Thanks to a tip from Alex I tuned into the now released version of 43 Things, which is addictive, intensive connected, and tagged inside out. I had peeked at the beta a few weeks back, but the released version is wild, social, and amazing. It is tags, tags, and tags... «more»

Flickr: The Land of 10,000 Memes (December 30, 2004 01:01 AM)
Pontification on the meteoric popularity of Flickr is a common past time-- and it makes all the sense in the world of network hubs, preferential attachment, link fitness, etc (see Thinking About Links...). Flickr was hardly the first photoblog site (I danced a bit with fotolog and buzznet before flickr... «more»

The Costco Audio Index (December 27, 2004 07:14 PM)
Looking for trends? You do not need pundits or experts, just keep your eyes open. I liked a saying I heard at the last EDUCAUSE meeting on the point where a technology reaches a wide range of acceptance- it appears as a consumer item, the "BestBuyification" of technology. I was... «more»

Nuts About ecto (December 27, 2004 04:49 PM)
Readers know how affectionate and enamored I am of flickr but the feelings are just as gooey for ecto, the desktop blog editing tool for Mac OSX and Windows. In fact, it is one of the very few software titles out there that I shelled out some shareware $ for.... «more»

Thinking About Links (December 27, 2004 04:36 PM)
It has actually been several months since I read "Linked: How Everything Is Connected to Everything Else and What It Means" (Albert-Laszlo Barabasi) but I keep coming back to it, scribbling in the margins, and finding it so insightful to thinking about links between people, places, and things on... «more»

Do not callto://me (December 21, 2004 05:44 PM)
Disregard my recent suggestion for making Skype links written has callto:/myskypename-- My new Finnish colleague Teemu just noted that it conflicts with the ugh-ly Netmeeting. There is supposed to be a way from the Skype Site to create a "Shype Me Button" ( could not find it there and had... «more»

I Skyped, We Skyped ... and then Shazam! from Finland (December 21, 2004 10:25 AM)
My call for some skypers paid off this time, the phone has been ringing off the hook... Just as I was checking email this monrning, I got the notice of Will's comment that he had just downloaded Skype, and just as I was adding him to my Skype contact list,... «more»

Skype Me (December 20, 2004 04:51 PM)
Maybe I barked and whined about podcasting, that does not mean I'm not interested in audio! I am trying to give Skype another round of tests, but cannot find anyone I know with a skype account. Is anyone up to some internet telephone tag? I'll try to keep the application... «more»

Yawncasting (December 19, 2004 10:42 PM)
I feel pretty much late to the dance with podcasting. It is a technology phenomnma that seems like it happened more or less while I was out of the country 3 weeks in November. My colleagues D'Arcy and Brian are all over it, and I have give high credence to... «more»
