BloggerCon Essay: The Rule of Links

David Giacalone: Jargon Builds Walls Not Bridges

Pheed.Com: Syndicated Photography Feeds

Reuters: "Google said it bought Kaltix Corp, a start-up that builds the personalized and context-sensitive search tools the industry sees as part of its next wave of product offerings." 

Zawodny: "Politicians and Weblogs: I couldn't care less..." 

You can read the last 20 lines of the #bloggerCon IRC channel, in XML, here. In HTML, here. Comments on the XML format, and how it can be improved. 

Want to see the power of links? Check out this post by Rogers Cadenhead commenting on a post by Eugene Volokh and decide for yourself if something new is happening. 

Weather for BloggerCon. "Bring a sweater and an umbrella, because if you don't it'll be cold and rainy." 

Amy Wohl: "This is some new kind of event and we may need a new vocabulary to describe it." 

The Clark weblog reports that Joshua Marshall of Talking Points Memo will interview Clark later today. He's on the opening panel, with Glenn Reynolds, Scott Rosenberg, moderated by Ed Cone, this Saturday. 

Added The Daily Kos interview to the special Lydon RSS Feed with enclosures. It's especially current given all the motion in the Democratic Party sub-blogosphere yesterday. 

WorldKit is an "easy to use and highly flexible mapping application for the Web." 

Andrew Grumet wants to do an MP3 recording of the Day 2 Infrastructure session. I want MP3 recordings of all sessions both days.  

Politics Online names Berkmanite Jim Moore one of the 25 most influential in the political Internet. That's so cool. Jim is a total inspiration. And from this event, I think I can explain another rule of the Web, right up there with the rule of links, it's called The Rule of Win-Win. I'll write that up later. 

Marlboro LightsI had a smoking dream last night, first in many months. I had an almost-full carton of Marlboro Lights and I bought another. I was sneaking cigarettes in a house I had rented from a Harvard professor. An old girlfriend was hanging out. And I was smoking and feeling guilty. People were seeing me smoke but weren't saying anything. The funny thing is that during the dream I see myself as a non-smoker, and how unrealistic that is, since I'm actually smoking. I wake up. Still not smoking. 473 days. I want one this morning. I can almost taste it. Maybe some day I'll get a terminal disease and the doctor will say it's okay to start smoking again. The perverse thing is that in a way I look forward to that! Geez Louise.
