MyBlogLog adds tagging
Yes, MyBlogLog has implemented tagging. Get all the details here, along with some thoughts from Mike at Techcrunch.
Nice job, Eric, Todd, John, Steve, Chris, Robyn, and Ian! (yep, that list is getting longer)
For now, I seem to own the tag “optimist.” I’ll take it!
Oh yeah, the team is hiring.
Widgets are the ringtones for the MySpace generation
Today, I was thinking about widgets and marketplaces like the Wallop Modder Network that allow for the buying and selling of widgets. The over-30 curmudgeon in me wondered, “why would anyone ever buy and sell silly little widgets for their blogs?” Then I remembered the always-surprising (at least to me) ringtone market, and [...]
Subscribe to my blog via email
I love FeedBurner. Every now and then, I check out features I’m not using and try a new one out. Tonight, I added the ability to subscribe to my blog via email using FeedBurner email. The form is permanently in my blog template now, but here’s what it looks like for all [...]
WordPress upgrade
I decided to upgrade my 1.x install of WordPress to 2.04 tonight, so those of you reading this on my site and not in RSS, you’ll notice that I changed my theme to Fluid Solution. I had gotten sloppy with my other template, so it was time to clean house. All in all, [...]

Beating the commute with EVDO
My blogging output has been miserable as of late and it’s been bugging me because I really like sitting down to write and there are lots of big blogarific thoughts rolling around in my head these days. That being said, getting down to Yahoo! a few times a week (when I’m not working in [...]
Amr, blogging star
Amr Awadallah is Yahoo’s new blogging star — he really hit the mark with his Google earnings predictions (which got picked up on CNN/Money and other places, I’m sure. See his “i told you so” post from yesterday).
There is some serious blogging mojo in my vicinity at work these days — [...]
Corporate blogging panel at Syndicate
(Update: links added as the wi-fi improved)
I’m sitting in on the corporate blogging panel at Syndicate moderated by Charlene Li from Forrester, featuring Jeremy Zawodny (fellow Yahoo! and my cubemate), David Geller (WhatCounts), Greg Renaicker (Newsgator), and Jodi Baumann (Network Appliance — where Dave Hitz has a blog). A few random thoughts on the [...]
Syndicate Conference next week
The Syndicate conference is next week in San Francisco, and I think it’s well worth checking out. Last year, the conference was an interesting mix of traditional media types who wanted to know what all the RSS/blogs/syndication fuss was about along with the folks who were creating the new world. This year, Doc [...]
