Couple more quick links I found recently. Picasa is an image management software tool written by Google, of all people. I don’t remember where I saw a reference to it recently, but I just tried it out, and it’s absolutely wonderful. Instantaneous response to typical image manipulations, an “I’m feeling lucky!” button ala Google when […]

I’ve been using del.icio.us more, so you can always go there to check out what I’ve been finding interesting in my trawls through the web, but I wanted to call out a couple specifically. I thought Paul Graham’s latest essay was really interesting and either inspiring or depressing depending on my mood. Inspiring because he […]

You know the drill. I find some pages that amuse me. I yammer on about them. Many-to-Many had a couple interesting responses from Clay Shirky and danah boyd to this post about Wikipedia. I particularly liked this point by danah: My concern – and that of many of my colleagues – is that students are […]

A batch o’ links from the last several weeks that I’ve been too lame to upload until now. If you want a more consistently updated feed of web pages I find interesting, I’m starting to use del.icio.us more regularly, and you can check out my saved links there. John Perry Barlow has been involved with […]

Since it’s been a while since I’ve written, I have a lot of links to put up and comment on. So here we go. danah boyd has made some really great posts to OMST recently. This one asks the interesting question: why are people interested in publicly articulating their social relationships? And this one examines […]

Okay, so I’m utterly failing on writing more. Eit. Friday, I went and hung out at Christy and UBoat’s, Saturday I went for a bike ride up to Skyline Blvd and then went over to the Lantzes to play with Max, and this morning I played ultimate for the first time in a month, which […]

As usual, a couple links that I want to share. I really liked this San Francisco chronicle article describing Laura Cunningham, the manager of the French Laundry. In the account of my visit, I raved about the experience, and how everything was tuned so well for customer enjoyment. It turns out that Cunningham has trained […]

A few quick links that I thought were interesting. After thinking about it, I did sign up to go to the Accelerating Change conference. If you’re interested, the Early Bird rate has apparently been extended to this Sunday, with a $50 discount thrown in if you read this post. At some point, I’m planning on […]

Links links links. Yes, I know I try to keep this blog to original content (or at least original to me) (I’ve got several longer pieces I’ve been mulling over that haven’t quite come together yet), but occasionally a set of links comes in that I want to share. Extreme Democracy Future Salon I’ll probably […]
