| <nettime> about how I blog it |
Listen: I find something interesting, maybe I'll read it later. Time to BlogIt! Woo! 23e23 bunny-verse bloggin'! Okay. I drag my mouse to select pertinent text. These people are so clever, I can't wait to BlogIt! I click the *BlogIt* link in my personal tool bar. It's always there waiting... The handy window pops up; I login. Use animal name! No. The highlighted text doesn't appear where it's supposed to. Just empty html tags. That's all; That's okay. Listen: I close the pop-up window. Deftly, I click the *BlogIt* link <i>again.</i>. The crafty little pop-up is back, filled with appropriate text and url! It _does_ work! Next: Publish! Oops- ftp login failed. Wha? Do It Again! ClickIt! BlogIt! failed again. Browser Crash Type 2! Try Again Later21! Broken? -> It just works that way. That's the way it works, that way! That's the way to go with that@now\! Click it twice@! ClickIt then BlogIt!$!!! b http://www.mts.net/~spornitz/blog/blogger.html http://www.oreillynet.com/pub/a/webservices/2002/05/03/udell.html Blogspace Under the Microscope by Jon Udell 05/03/2002 The culture of blogspace is evolving in near-realtime.

Each article grew a tail of backlinks that pointed to pages referring back to it. Suddenly a new kind of feedback loop was created. With a twist of the lens, conversations that had been diffuse and indirect came sharply into focus. Almost immediately the meme replicated. # distributed via <nettime>: no commercial use without permission # <nettime> is a moderated mailing list for net criticism, # collaborative text filtering and cultural politics of the nets # more info: [email protected] and "info nettime-l" in the msg body # archive: http://www.nettime.org contact: [email protected]
