Peter Wood’s Tag Glue Plugin for Movable Type and Technorati Tags
I mentioned to Peter Wood that I was trying to figure out how to get plus signs to show up when I combined the Movable Type category tag to automatically create a query and link to the Technorati tag for each category on the footer of my entries here and at Exploit Boston!. He ......
My New Camera Phone: Sharp TM150
I switched from SprintPCS to T-Mobile this week and bought a cameraphone. It's a Sharp TM150. It takes decent pictures since it's got a megapixel camera. I decided to not get any extra features other than the $2.99 picture messaging add-on because I probably don't need to be attached to the internet ...
Sharing Another Birthday With A Bush Inauguration
As I've mentioned before, on Thursday I share my 32nd birthday with another Bush inauguration. Hopefully, this will be the last time I share it with a member of that family. If you're in the area, friends and conspirators will be getting together for food and drinks at ZuZu at 9:30 PM that ...
Curious problem adding the auto-tagging nugget to entries
I combined Movable Type code with the new Technorati tag functionality so that each category on an entry had it's own link to that category's tag at Technorati. It works great on single words; but when it's a combination of two or more words, it's not working. Technorati's tag needs a ("+") plus ...
Technorati + Flickr + Del.icio.us + Weblogs = !
I dabbled with Technorati's new "tags" functionality that combines the latest weblog entries with photos from flickr and links on Del.icio.us. It seemed like a nifty thing to use along with categories on Exploit Boston!'s event listings and announcements. Each entry's category has a little "t" next to it which opens up a ...
It’s a Good Thing
Update June 27, 2005: December 2004 through February 2005 I was part of Marqui's "Pay to Blog" program. I wrote about them and linked to them once a week. During the three-month program I had this icon displayed on my site in the right sidebar area. [I get paid to mention Marqui and ...
Thanks, Alan
The Head Lemur (Alan Herrell), someone from the pre-blog web community, called yesterday from his world headquarters in Arizona about me attending Harvard's Blogging, Journalism and Credibility event that is coming up next weekend. It's very nice of him to put in a good word for me. We should have recorded our conversation. ...
Doris “Granny D” Haddock’s Latest Dispatch : Our Velvet Revolution
Doris "Granny D" Haddock will be celebrating her 95th birthday at the counter-inaugural events in Washington, D.C. on Jan. 20th. She wrote an essay for the Democracy Week website that is incredible. It'd be nice to see her essay linked up around the web as much as all the blathering about the Dean campaign ......
The Not-So-Mysterious Z
About a day after I found Zephyr Teachout's new Zonkette weblog other websites started to link to her. I was checking in on my refer stats earlier and noticed my website has been visited by the State Department, NBC, the FDA and others searching for Zonkette. Zephyr's "Financially Interested Blogging" blog entry has been ......
WiFi and Belly Dancing
Last night a reporter and photographer from The Boston Globe sat in on the Boston WiFi Meetup that I help organize. I was impressed that they stayed for most of the event. Amusingly enough, they had to leave so they could get to the belly dance meetup at the Middle East in Central ...
Today’s Productivity Distraction: New Apple Products
The new Mac Mini is much sexier than the old cube. And I'm pleased to see that Apple has released a smaller capacity music player called the iPod Shuffle. I bought an external hard drive a year ago when my old Dell notebook was about to die and as a place to store ...
