Weblog MetaData Initiative2002.09.10

Very exciting stuff being put forth by the Weblog MetaData Initiative: “The guiding principle behind the BlogMD initiative is that by creating standards in the weblog metadata "problem space", we can enable greater collaboration and interaction between existing applications, as well as paving the way for future, currently unforeseen metadata applications by reducing or eliminating much of the redundant, "reinventing the wheel" work currently involved in creating a new weblog metadata application.”

You really should check out their Conceptual Data Model. Nice.

Best news of my week is that MT will be adding MT-Search to their 2.5 upgrade later this month. Excellent.

I'm also very excited by the software mentioned in B&A's Recording Screen Activity During Usability Testing. Note to self. Must check out. Soonest.

Fun and interesting finds this week include YesterdayLand, PopCult Magazine and The Art of Architecture.

Finally, new additions to the Tech Toy Wish List:
GoType! PDA Keyboard
Gateway Profile 4L (yummy)
Sony ICD-BP150 - 16MB IC Recorder with PC Link

One day I will have a house filled with toys and every convenience available to me digitally and at the push of a button. And I'll still be too busy to remember to pick up the milk. Sigh. :)
