Anjo has an interesting thought on weblog mapping: “It gets more interesting, as any textbook on networks does, to draw the analogy of graphs with a system of pipes that carry liquid. Is this analogy useful in the context of weblog communities? Perhaps it is. Imagine that weblogs are connected by a system of pipes …

Feed2JS Downunder
Ta da! Over the Easter break Alan was kind enough to set up a mirror of Feed2JS at IncSub, so now you can merrily aggregate, spit out and customise feeds of joy downunder :o)
Start witrh short posts about anything
Chaos Abraham quotes Doc Searls on blogging: “just think of blogging as emailing in public. Start with short posts about anything. Like most of mine today.

Mediums, messages, dialogue & reflections…

It’s a cluetrain-esque post which, if I get it basically outlines D’s understanding that: “it is the breaktime conversation, the secondhand explanation from a colleague that situates the new concept, validates its importance and sanctions its legitimacy.” and that this is not going …
