Watching the game with Dave and my link blog is back
I’m a very lucky guy. I’m watching the Oakland A’s playing the Detroit Tigers over at Dave Winer’s house. He got a brand new Sony 46-inch HDTV. Top of the line. It’s stunning. The A’s are getting beaten pretty badly by Detroit. So far down 5-0. Anyway. His screen is thinner than mine, smaller in size too (but cost almost as much). But has better sharpness and color and when a computer is displayed on his screen it’s much better than mine. If you haven’t had a chance to watch baseball on a real HDTV screen you’re missing out.
Yeah, I’m in the New York Times today thanks to my blog. Page C8. Talks about cool people I meet when I’m traveling on planes. I wonder who Maryam and I will sit next to when we travel on Thursday to the Converge South conference.
Anyway, today was busy. First over to Google’s Reader team.
Hey, my Link Blog is back! I am reading about 200 feeds right now. I hit “j” to scroll down through all my items. When I find something cool I click on “share this” and it goes to this blog. Oh, there’s a feed too.
The Google Reader team showed me that I can share each blog item that I like as I read it and now you can follow along.

Could this mean that you will, once again, become a reader of Blankbaby? :)

Interesting regarding the blog posts, don’t quite see how that works though?

I’ll see you there at Converge South.
But I can’t say I’ve ever dropped by your blog, but I was discussing CS with a co-worker-blogger friend (Stewart at http://www.Lenslinger.com) and his presentation at CS is at the same time yours is.
I might have to flip a coin. On the other hand, I get to hear him pontificate on a daily basis. (And I watch HDTV at his house.)
See you Saturday.
I guess I better back-read your stuff….

Aren’t you the guy who usually says “Where’s your RSS feed?” The only visible way to subscribe to your link blog is with Google Reader. There’s also autodiscovery, but that’s not obvious to Joe or Jane Internet.

Scott: subscribed.
William: check into BlogTronix.
Chris: Stewart’s talk will be better. I wish I could see it.
David: I read 200 feeds so you don’t have to. Things that catch my eye I “star” and they automatically get published to the link blog.

I hope you enjoyed the game, I am glad my Tigers were able to pull it out. I happened to be at the game and am uploading my photos as I type this: http://meems.imeem.com/EdTYRh0V/photo/yrSqSLnx/

LayZ: what would you have bought with $4,000? This set is stunning.

Robert - why a linkblog rather than bookmarking with del.icio.us and having the daily post to your current blog? No need for two blogs or multiple feeds that way…
