Protoblogging

Ed introduce us (at least ME) to protoblogging: protoblogging — when you blog pre-written stuff that you would have blogged if you had had a blog back then.

Why blogs are no Tamagochis

Tamagochis are isolated. Weblogs are connected. Tamagochis die. Weblogs mature. Tamagochis get boring over time. Weblogs get more interesting over time. Tamagochis don’t make friends. Weblogs create networks. [picture taken at BlogWalk, Vienna, via Heiko Hebig]

Help keep bloggers alive!

i had a funny *and weird* idea reading Nika’s post about her scooter accident this morning. See and tell me how weird this is. The idea is to do a little fundraising event, or even promotion stuff like tshirts with written on: “Help keep bloggers alive! Donate!” And of course, we would use the money… Continue reading Help keep bloggers alive!

Turn any website into an RSS feed for $2. Bootleg RSS, a service for scraping websites and turning them into RSS, is taking requests. If there’s a site you’d like RSS-ified, ping Carlo and he’ll make it into a feed for $2. Now, I’ve thought about the how. Hosting feeds costs money, scraping feeds is… Continue reading what u get for $2

Encore plus gênant, Maxime qui se présente et… Continue reading rencontre yulblog de ce soir et sprint nocturnes

J’ai fait le saut

Hé oui, j’ai fait le saut moi aussi. Ma première rencontre yulblog est déjà chose du passé, et je sens que pleins de bonne choses sont à venir. Hé oui, c’est gênant de se rendre quelque part pour discuter avec des inconnus.. ou presque. N’empêche, faut se rendre à l’évidence, l’esprit de famille y était.… Continue reading J’ai fait le saut
