- Stephan Spencer writes on 10 things to consider before getting started with RSS (linking himself to Amanda Watlington on the same topic).
- Technology Evangelist writes Google News and AdSense’s Role in Blog Spam.
- Jeffry Zeldman talks about Web 3.0.
- Roland Piquepaille over at ZDNet wrote a column yesterday trying to put some figures around the overall blogging industry in The economic weight of the blogs.
The Web 3.0 article by Jeffry Zeldman is an excellent read. Just like to point out one part i found hillarious. Being a web developer that uses standards and AJAX it appealed to my sense of humour.
“If Steven created the site with CGI and Perl and used tables for layout, this is the story of a boy who made a website for his own amusement, perhaps gaining social points in the process. He might even contribute to a SXSW Interactive panel.
But if Steven used AJAX and Ruby on Rails, Yahoo will pay millions and Tim O’Reilly will beg him to keynote.”
I’m not sure if Darren read the Zeldman article because he infact doesn’t talk about Web 3.0 at all but rather only mentions it as a joke at the end.
The article is actually about Zeldman’s thoughts on Web 2.0. Good read all around.
I read it Chris – sorry, was trying to enter into the humor of it all linking that way but upon reflection I was only amusing myself :-)
it is a good article though.
