Gotta run, late for sushi!
Then off to Petaluma, then onto the plane to go back to Seattle. Talk to you tomorrow.

#73: Sucker for baby photos
I’m a sucker for new baby photos. Developer Ryan Whitaker’s got some good ones on his blog of his new kid, Owen.
I remember when Patrick was that small. We called him “the human burritto.” Congrats Ryan!
#72: BroadbandSports adds tags
Alex Barnett is one of my favorite bloggers lately. Today he says 2006 will be a tagtastic year and links to BroadbandSports as an example.
#71: RSS Bandit author considers OPML reading lists
Dare Obasanjo is one of the authors of RSS Bandit (a really nice free Windows-based RSS Aggregator) and he’s considering OPML reading lists and wants your feedback.
Why does this matter? Well, it’d let you create your own Memeorandum style newspage for instance.
Dare, what I’d like to do is import my 1,400 feeds and then assign a weight to each of them. Some of those bloggers, for instance, write about politics. Some tech. Some family life. So, what I want is to tag them and then give them a weight in each category. Dave Winer, for instance, outweighs Rick Segal in tech, but Rick outweighs Dave in VC.
If I delete a reading list I don’t want to delete the subscriptions. I think we need two different interfaces for those things.
What do you think?
#70: The Search Engine Experiment
Think your search engine is the most relevant?
Well, Digg today links to the search engine experiment. You enter a search term, it makes you choose which one is most relevant. Very interesting results. Thanks to Jason Alexandrian for emailing this to me.
