My link blog has now moved to Blogger. This is so I can use BlogJet to dump stuff to it quickly and easily – something I couldn’t do with the BlogLines blog.

Blogzine Launches
This might be useful and worth checking out, from Renee Blodgett
Blogzine launches, which is New Communications Forum’s new bi-monthly online publication dedicated to exploring new communications tools, technologies and emerging modes of communication, (including blogs, wikis, RSS, podcasts, search marketing, etc.).
It aims to discuss the growing phenomena of participatory communications and their effect on traditional media, professional communications, business and society at large.
Their first issue explores the evolution of new models for journalism, PR, brand marketing, and advertising, and a contribution from blogger Jeremy Wright.
Rubel Roundup
Quite a few interesting posts by Steve Rubel on Micro Persuasion recently, which I am still catching up on.
Folksonomies Turn Chaos Into Information
eWeek: The new term “Folksonomy” has emerged to describe the potential for user-defined tags to organically develop structure out of what might appear to be chaotic collections of information. One of the uncertainties about tags is how they can fit together among various services and what meaning can be gleaned from the tags of a large mass of users.
I haven’t really had much involvement with tagging, on Flickr I rarely bother. But more and more sites seem to be emerging using this technology and maybe it’s time I gave it some consideration.
Want to get paid for thinking about blogging? There are plenty of blogging related jobs available via indeed.com. And there’s even a feed to keep track of them.
However unrealistic, I am going to have to do this. Having a job where I could just do this all the time? Great!
Forest Staying Up!
Great result for Forest today.Link below from the Guardian. More to follow when I get back online.
Championship: Sunderland went top with a win over Coventry, as Wigan could only draw against Nottingham Forest.
I really can see us staying up now. In Megson we have the best manager in the division, and now things are tightened up a the back, when we get some of the injured players back, we should be in a strong position come the run-in.
OneNote
I have been playing with Microsoft’s OneNote (guessed at URL) software. It’s huge for what is for me just a Notepad replacement! At the moment I am just using one of the many possible screens to record notes and URLs I might want to visit in the future. It certainly offers a bit more flexibility than good old Notepad and makes a very useful scratchpad. Will post further should I actually do anything more with it…
