The Internet is for Porn

Ha! Did that get your attention? Check out this great video which I found on Google Video, while testing out their Video RSS feeds. Heheh. It’s quite funny. The video that is. ;)

I thought it was also quite cool that Google announced their use of Yahoo’s Media RSS extension in a Yahoo! RSS group ‘rss-media’. And thanks to this I’d noticed the media:group addition and added support for that in my ‘stuff’.

I’ve been seeing a few movies people have been making via World Of Warcraft. It’s great! In fact I still need to get up the video captures of our New Years Eve in Second Life. Partying on down in cyberspace. ;)

I think we’re going to see ALOT more of this kind of stuff. ie:people using gaming worlds in totally creative ways. (Not that SL is that kind of game, but you know what I mean)

I really want to get my hands on that Spores game… oh boy…wow!

FeedBlitz OPML

This caught my eye (on a branch on treedia. heh). Something called FeedBlitz has added OPML support. Now, I’m sure this has plenty of uses for those odd people who decide to fill up their email inboxes with link emails and subscriptions, but to me, these kinds of services are (to me) what this whole thing is all about. It’s about keeping STUFF OUT of your inbox!!

Aggregators, grazers, whatever you want to call them, help you do that. (Don’t get me wrong, I’m sure that there are some good reasons for subbing to a mailing list these days – but it’s very ’0.5 – 1.0′ activity if you ask me) OPML can play a great part in helping the organization and taxnomy that we all find so comforting. ;)
