New Blog

In an effort to separate some differing interests, I am creating this new blog. This, I hope, will be an outlet for may of my more professional pursuits. This is my other blog.

Twitter what?!?

I marvel how something like Twitter is like (micro-) blogging. The social side is quite a bit more heightned. You do not need to read all the RSS feeds to keep up with people (you still do but Twitter seems to give you the essence.

Privacy and PAOGA

I might find myself blogging more on privacy,  security and other stuff. I have always had an interest in this. But now, my girlfriend, Svea has just started a MS IA at Norwich University (online degree). And my amigo, Matt, has been working for PAOGA which focuses on helping individuals to maintain control of their privacy but letting the ‘right’ people access the ‘right’ stuff.

Matt some interesting things to say on translucence, privacy and identity management. It is a bit of a long post, but worth it, you can fins it here.

Windows Live Writer

I suppose I am just a sucker for some of the new blog clients. The latest is , it is the one that Microsoft is promoting through their line of services and products. It defaults to wanting to post to your Windows Live Spaces account. But it is pretty smart about connecting you to your own blog service/software or give you access through one of the blog APIs.  The WYSIWYG seems pretty good has a kind of pared down version of Word feel to it. It is definitely a worthy competitor to the other clients (, , etc.).

(Update: I am finding it less than easy to add tags, and other things. There is a plugin for tags, flickr. If you want to add tags to two different services (say and ) I am not even sure how you might do this.

MashUp Camp University

Tomorrow I am going to Mashup Camp University. From what I understand, the pre-MashUp parties have already started. It has been a little while since I have been to a conference, particualrly one like this, it is going to be fun. Since I have been playing around with Matt Mower on a Web 2.0 psychometrics/sociometrics site (Metaxio), I figured this was a good time to get back in. Since I have been letting my programming skills atrophy for a number of years, Mashup University will be a good way to get back in, and to also start networking again!

Better start blogging!

It seems to me like I have spent so much time trying to get this blog up, that I stopped blogging altogether — it was a little sparse before that but at least I was doing it!
