The first rule of FlickrTagFightClub is we do not talk about FlickrTagFightClub… nah, talk about it. Blog about it. See FlickrTagFight, a site that lets you compare two tags, side by side, head to head, in a knock down, winner take all tag fight– see how “Man vs Machine”: And it’s not even close! Machines […]
Good News: Google News and custom searches are available as RSS/Atom Feeds. Bad News: Has anyone at Google actually googled the RSS 2.0 formats? They have taken a weird approach to the format, double listing the title and publication date items inside the description! Okay, technically it meets RSS 2.0 rules, but functionally, it is […]
I rarely listen to the radio anymore, about as much as I can endure is some public radio during the morning commute, and I have not listened to a music station in eons. So since I have been enjoying my iPod Shuffle, I’ve been curious about options to use it as a player in my […]

flickr foto SAC 2005 at Snowmasavailable on my flickr Not convinced of the “expertise” around Snowmass Village? This is the way to start a conference morning at the Seminars in Academic Computing (SAC) conference.

Day two of the Seminars on Academic Community conference in lovely Snowmass…. I am reflecting that conferencing blogging is tiring work for me… Yesterday, in the morning keynote session, I was sharing note writing with Cyprien Lomas in a shared space of SubEthaEdit.
