Hmmm. I am just quiclly trying out the edgeio system.
I have to say their instructions on how to make a post ‘with the tag “listing” ‘ is not clear at all. I also felt this in the early technorati days (and I probably still dont get all the things you can do there either!)
Please please – make it CLEAR!! Show an EXAMPLE – The ‘getting started’ page simply is not enough instruction. maybe I’m being dumb. Who knows? (No, don’t answer that )
So, I’m guessing here but I will try and add a link to the www2.edgeio.com/tag/listing page? Or shall I add a link to the technorati.com/tags/listing ??? Both?? Aieee…
UPDATE: I found the info buried in the FAQ – this should be more prominent – as the whole system relies on this.
It’s a lovely looking site you have there, Mike and Keith, but more info will be needed for this to fly, I think.

I was thinking that I’d ike to see Yahoo! Groups provide a url to an OPML file listing the (public) groups I am subscribed to, along with pointers to the RSS feeds.
Hmm.. maybe there’s an API somewhere that I can build that request, then generate the OPML?
Off to the dev net then….
UPDATE: I see they have a nice BIG List of RSS feeds here too. Now, if they could just have that as an OPML file (which they could update whenever new feeds appear) then we could all keep up to date with new feeds. That would be nice wouldn’t it?
God, it’s been a while since I had good listen to Peter Gabriel. From shocking the monkey, through the ‘games’ and far beyond the ‘frontier’, he remains ‘true’.
Good on him. If there’s anything we can do…. y’know it….
Peter Gabriel was one of the best Sunday night at Glastonbury Festival night headliners I have ever, ever experienced. Even through thirteen years of attending the festval on both sides of the backstage fence, it still stands as one of the The Best.
Unfortunately, a friend of mine who was with me then is now dead. But I know that would be pleased to have been brought up in this ‘conversation’. He was a ‘complete star’. A ‘disruptor’ for sure. If he had known blogging, boy, would we have been in the shit. He liked to speak his mind. I miss that.
He really was my best friend for a long time.
I have good times with good people in my life with people who I respect for more than ‘just’ their friendliness. It has more about with how they ‘act’ with you. Are they comfortable? Are they ‘with’ you? Many are.
I’d love to share what I can with you, gentle readers….
All this will be revealed and discussed in the forthcoming Kozcast.
Times are a-changing fast. I’ve really gotta document this somehow, without getting into trouble!
like… who cares? Well. Me. Obviously. But sometimes, in life, you KNOW it’s time to stick yer neck out.
I dont know who made this image (was it James Corbett? The Eirepreneur?), but someone has put togther a table to lay out the various phases of the Web.
Auntie can be weird sometimes. Recently the BBC started a ‘proper’ blog on the News website. It’s great and very ‘bloggy’ – they did it well – and it looks nice too.
But recently I saw this odd job ad: (which closes today)
The weird thing about this is that they’re seeking an ‘Editor’ for the ‘Editor’s Blog’ – and the ‘SM2′ bit means that it pays VERY WELL. SM = Senior Management.
Now, call me cynical, but currently there are ALOT of people losing their jobs at the BBC, either by choice or by force in order to create alot of cost savings that are needed due to a rather large debt left by the previous DG.
So, advertising a highly paid (and if you ask me) totally unnecessary role (don’t they get it??) seems to leave a strange taste here.
