Shred ready
Our ski season doesn’t start until late next month, but I am going snowboarding tonight, yeehaa.
Never been to an indoor slope before, but this should be good to try out the new board and make sure it is all set up right. I had a lesson when we were in Whistler last year and the [...]
Cringe moments
PCWorld recently did an interview with Biz Stone of Blogger, who apparently acknowledged that yes Blogger were considering doing an Enterprise version(?!). Brilliant! Now I don’t feel so stupid…
See, back in early 2004 I went to SXSWi. One of the coolest things about it was the Blogger Booze up at Club DeVille. I had a [...]
Who knew?
David Galbraith points out that Evan Williams is an investor in EVDB…even more impressive though, Chuck Norris is the CTO…don’t mess with EVDB.
And while we’re mentioning David Galbraith, founder of Wists.com, here’s a prediction. Given the connection between him and Nick Denton, what’s the bet that Fleshbot rolls out an “Adult” social booking marking service [...]

Upcoming & Google Maps
Someone should do something with the Upcoming API and Google Maps…that would be cool. Pick a date on the calendar and search by metro to see what’s going on in town tonight. It’s all there.

I have been digesting this one for a few days now, and there’s a lot to grasp, but the potential is tantalizing. A couple of thoughts spring to mind…
- Where does FOAF fit in?
- I’ve said before that [...]
Flickr in the real world
I’ll be in Amsterdam next month so will try to catch the Flickr Peep Show if I can get some time to myself.
I have been spending a bit of time thinking about Flickr recently…which will be apparent when I launch the new site later this week…wink wink ;)
Sites I’ve launched
I was pondering all the half baked web site ideas I have had over the past few years and realized that I have launched a bunch of websites, some which worked and some which didn’t…here’s a quick list (as much for my own reference), roughly in order of their appearance…
Dogster wins webby
Great news, Dogster Wins A Webby!. Go Ted!
Score one for Web2.0
Whoa! Ben Hammersley just posted this news about the BBC opening itself up via API. Check it out at backstage.bbc.co.uk
I can’t wait to see what coolness comes out of this.
