Update: A very helpful bloglines engineer got in touch with me and they’ve applied a special script to set up a combined rate limit for 10 requests per second for the edublogs domain. Seems to be working nicely so far so you’re back in the good books Bloglines ;) A year on Bloglines continues to …

WordCamp Melbourne almost ‘sold out’
Better hurry over to Upcoming to register for WordCamp Melbourne as there are technically only 6 places left! If the great list of speakers and topics and beer doesn’t tempt you (how could it not!) then there are also lots of lovely goodies to be had… purely for turning up.
C’mon those niches
Just posted this on The Edublog Awards site. There have been over 300 nominations so far but I reckon people need to think outside the box a bit :) “Also, let’s get imaginative people!

WordCamp Melbourne has a program and a supporter!
WordCamp Melbourne is coming along nicely, with a program (of sorts) and a supporter just announced (thanks Simon :) While speakers are largely going to play second fiddle to roundtables and discussions (6 x 20 minute presentations & 15 x 60 minute roundtables!) we’ve got some top class speakers including code wrangler par excellence from …
