#18: Forty faces posting like mad

November 14, 2005 By

Forty faces is a site that shows when a bunch of bloggers like me published something. But not in a usual blogrolly way. By posting a picture. Cool, but doesn’t scale. Would be neat to have for a small workgroup, or a family blog, though.

    As for scaling — as soon as the site grows to proportions the current one can handle (which is indeed what could happen), I might introduce sub-categories in the form of fortyface.com/microsoft/ , fortyfaces.com/writing/, fortyfaces.com/sports/ and so on. This could then be expanded to work with sub-categories to the sub-categories (sports/basketball/) and so on.

    Just a PS: The categories would almost certainly need to be based on a good idea themselves, e.g. something very visual, so that the navigation flow could be maintained.

    Quick question. I’ve got plenty of blogs, but looking to build some forums. phpBB, IPB or vB. Looking for a template like mystery forum. Any idea?

    Cheers

    Digsby is a free program which combines IM, Email, and Social Networking into one. I’ve been using it for a few weeks now, and it’s really good. I’m running 3 IM accounts, facebook, myspace, and 2 gmail accounts on it and everything works. I’m honestly impressed so far.

    Check it out and download it here: http://www.lan5.net/digsby.html

    I do have a one problem with it though. I can’t figure out how to put links into my profile. It’s not that big of a deal though.

    What do you think, is Digsby better than Trillian and those other communication programs?
