john robert boynton: RadioRadiolicentious radio(Untitled)- February 28, 2003 Dave Winer userland.com: "Here's what Google can do for weblogs that would be a service to the weblog community -- classify and group them. Give me an accurate list of all the librarian weblogs, and all the lawyer weblogs, and all the weblogs of people who have implemented an XML-RPC stack. You get the idea. They have been able to do this with news stories, it seems they should also be able to do it with weblogs. This is the biggest unsolved problem I see in this world, and I don't know how to..http://radio.weblogs.com/0102813/categories/radioradio/2003/02/27.html#a1354 (Untitled)- February 13, 2003 The case for Google for Big Brother of the Year award. We just mention this Google stuff, we're not necessarily complaining about Google ourselves.http://radio.weblogs.com/0102813/categories/radioradio/2003/02/13.html#a1272 (Untitled)- February 13, 2003 Googlicide: linking to a Google-censored page, thereby black-holing your blog at Google until the link scrolls off the main pagehttp://radio.weblogs.com/0102813/categories/radioradio/2003/02/12.html#a1252 (Untitled)- February 11, 2003 Weird Google-glitch yesterday. If you searched for various combinations of: "George W. Bush State of the Union address, 2003", licentious radio's (not very funny) satirical transcript was the second hit. Presumably because the title of the licentious page includes "2003". The page got forty or fifty hits yesterday, versus approximately none in the previous week. Today, it's gone from Google, altogether. The most interesting thing is the question of why it suddenly got a high ranking. But...http://radio.weblogs.com/0102813/categories/radioradio/2003/02/11.html#a1229 (Untitled)- February 11, 2003 From the SF Chronicle today: "About 108 venture funds raised $6.9 billion during 2002, compared with 331 funds that raised $40.7 billion in 2001.... Because 26 firms gave $5 billion in uninvested money back to their limited partners, the net amount of new capital was just $1.9 billion last year -- a 95 percent drop from 2001.... In 2000, nearly $107 billion was raised by 653 funds."http://radio.weblogs.com/0102813/categories/radioradio/2003/02/11.html#a1224 (Untitled)- February 9, 2003 testhttp://radio.weblogs.com/0102813/categories/radioradio/2003/02/09.html#a1208 (Untitled)- February 9, 2003 Rating links technorati.com to Shirky's article on weblogs. Top links right now: Scripting News 1490, Boing Boing Blog 1085, Instapundit.com 609. Megnut is 6 with 267. licentious radio is 21 with 16. (That's the number of "inbound blogs".) We presume licentious radio's rank will fall as more websites link to the article. It's interesting how easy it is to find evidence of Shirky's point.http://radio.weblogs.com/0102813/categories/radioradio/2003/02/09.html#a1207 (Untitled)- February 9, 2003 DaveNet Dave points to Shirkey on weblogs. I don't quite get Dave's point. Shirky says weblog readership is a "power law" deal, where very few weblogs get huge readership, and almost all weblogs get very little readership, with many weblogs in between. I guess Dave is saying that weblogs are more niche-oriented. But I thought that's what Shirky was saying, too.http://radio.weblogs.com/0102813/categories/radioradio/2003/02/09.html#a1199 (Untitled)- February 9, 2003 Interesting claim on the OperaMSN story.... They suggest MSN tweaked a stylesheet to work better with Opera 6. When Opera 7 came out, the tweaked stylesheet broke the layout, because of changes in the browser. I haven't tested this, but it sounds plausible (slashdot comment). First, make your browser follow the standards. Second, when browser-sniffing, be aware that new versions will come out eventually, and the new versions will be specifically different than the current version. So limit...http://radio.weblogs.com/0102813/categories/radioradio/2003/02/09.html#a1198 (Untitled)- February 9, 2003 I guess that makes it official, then. I am the Anti-zeldman google.com.
