I just found this list of 56 services you can ping with your new blog posts - I’m not going to ping them all, but I did find a few I didn’t know about.
I’m wondering what everyone searches for and watches in their ego search feed. My search (blended by FeedBlendr) reads:
Blogdigger search for nicole engard, Technorati Search for: http://web2learning.net, Yahoo! Search: “nicole engard” or “nicole c. engard” or “nicole c engard”, Technorati Search for: “what i learned today” AND (nicole OR engard), Technorati Search for: nicole [...]
Martin Cleaver makes an interesting connection based on David Weinberger’s keynote at KMWorld & Intranets last week.
Dave Weinberger's analog of a pile of fallen leaves for folksonomy stirred my thought that the nature of the world is for old things to fade and disintergrate, and for new things to stem from the old.
Well, blogs certainly [...]
LISZEN is here - and it lets you search over 500 library blogs - give it a whirl!
That’s right, What I Learned Today… was started right after Internet Librarian 2005 - so my first birthday has come and went (not sure the exact date - cause I remember fudging the date on my first post )
Some first year stats:
628 posts
468 comments
51 categories
445 subscribers (if feedburner can be trusted)
an average of 50 [...]
I missed this announcement because I’ve been so busy just trying to write up my summaries - I’ll be upgrading when I get back home - but I wanted to make sure everyone else knew about the new update.
What's new? We have about 50 or so bugfixes, which you can review on our dev tracker [...]
I just want to post a quick sorry to everyone who tried to get to my blog the last couple of days. I got a few emails and IMs asking what the deal was - turns out a spammer was hitting the server through my site and so they suspended my account. I [...]

I have decided I have way too much school work to keep up with my 150+ blogs - I’m going to be parring down my list. I logged into Bloglines to find that I had over 1500 posts to read today - that’s just too much with hundreds of pages of reading per week for [...]
I have finally gotten around to reading the latest Library Technology Report by Michael Stephens - Web 2.0 & Libraries: Best Practices for Social Software. I’m in the chapter on blogging and Michael is talking about blogging internally for communication within libraries. I’m thinking - “Boy its shame that I didn’t get to [...]
I missed it! I was going to post something special for my 500th post - but as it turns out I missed it - this is my 503rd in less than a year! That’s right I haven’t even been writing for a year yet - at least I won’t miss that milestone.
A lot of people ask me where I got the Gmail button on my sidebar.
I don’t remember which resource I used, but this one generates buttons for a bunch of different email accounts (MSN, AOL, Gmail, etc)
You may remember my post about my Spam Karma Woes - well I finally sat down and emailed support for some pointers. I hadn’t seen anything in the FAQ that fit my problem - so I was getting frustrated. Turns out my theme was not compatible!! This tip about adding a Comment [...]
Now - these aren’t for me - I like reading my feeds in an aggregator - but you might be interested. Original Signal offers two pages one for Transmitting Web 2.0 and one for Transmitting Gadgets. They’re each a page full of feeds from popular Web 2.0 and Gadget blogs - pretty handy [...]
Today is BlogDay 2006.
BlogDay was created with the belief that bloggers should have one day dedicated to getting to know other bloggers from other countries and areas of interest. On this day every blogger will post a recommendation of 5 new blogs. In this way, all Blog web surfers will find [...]
I finally finished reading A Blog’s Life an article by Mary Whisner in the Law Library Journal (AALL). What a great article!
Mary walks us through the process of setting up her first blog and it’s successes (and failures) along the way. I like stories like this because it shows people that while a [...]
You’ve heard of webcasting, podcasting - and a few others - but have you heard of Shopcasting? I just learn about a new site called ThisNext from the Business 2.0 Blog.
ThisNext is a shopcasting network where you can recommend, share and discover great products.
But what is Shopcasting?
It's a product playlist — a [...]
That’s right - it went backwards - from Blogger to Blogger Beta. Okay, enough silliness - Google released a new version of Blogger yesterday (hence the beta). I was going to go play with my puppy blog to see how the new features work out - but it turns out you can’t use [...]
As you know I have finally signed up for FeedBurner - but why the change? Well I was getting a little annoyed with depending on Bloglines to tell me how many subscribers I have. Bloglines was telling me that I had something like 28 subscribers - After 2 days FeedBurner says I have 79 [...]
Okay I give - how the heck do you get a little icon to appear next to your feed in a reader like Bloglines? I looked at a bunch of people’s RSS feeds today and could not see anything there that I didn’t have in my feed. I have a favicon set up for [...]
I know you’ve all been subscribed for a while - but I’ve finally signed up for FeedBurner and I’d love it if you all used my FeedBurner link to subscribe. Thanks in advance!
I have been having problems with Bloglines since they did their maintenance the other day. My feeds keep saying there are new posts, but when I click to read I get no results. Sometime changing the “Display items within the last” to a longer timeframe will make posts show up - when that [...]
I gave 2 presentations today at the Pennsylvania Bar Institute, and a presenter there said that Bloglines won’t be free much longer. I don’t know where he got his information - I wanted to see if any of you had heard this?? Can you point me to an article or some documentation about what’s [...]
I just logged into Amazon to find that there is a link to my plog on the right side column. What is a Plog? I’m still not sure - here’s what the page says:
Your Amazon.com Plog is a personalized web log that appears on your customer home page. Every person’s Plog is different (hence [...]
