It would be nice if there were a MemeStreams plugin capability for NNW.

NetNewsWire v2.1 and later has a handy post to del.icio.us command that makes it easy to send bookmarks through applications like Cocoalicious and Pukka. Unfortunately, there are dozens of great social bookmarking services out there that are not supported by NNW. Brent Simmons, the creator of NNW, has publicly stated that he would support posting to other services when other intermediate applications were available. Postr attempts to be one of these applications. It supports posting to several online bookmarking services and includes a system to add others.

If You Can't Measure It, You Can't Manage It
Topic: Technology 5:04 pm EDT, Apr  2, 2006

1. The Internet is now a critical infrastructure and a global platform for communication and commerce. What should be the role of governments in its development and management?

2. The Internet is challenging existing business models. How can we ensure there is sufficient investment to meet the network capacity demands of new applications and of an expanding base of users?

3. Innovation is taking place at the edges of the network. How do we ensure that this continues and how can it be enhanced?

4. The Internet is perceived as not being secure, nor does it protect privacy. What steps should be taken to improve security and privacy and by whom?

5. Ubiquitous networks are being deployed. What are the drivers of these developments? What will be the impacts on individuals and society?

I got tagged with a meme a few weeks ago and I refused to do it.

If you have no idea what Im talking about, you are lucky. Memes can be defined in a lot of different ways depending on the context of their usage. In this case, a meme is a set of questions that are passed from person to person. You fill out the questions. Post them on your blog. Then you tag another blogger who is supposed to do the same thing. Its supposed to be “viral fun” . Yes, bloggers are that hard up for fun.

It has the same intellectual resonance as doing The Wave at an event. You are embarrased if you do it sober, beligerant to non wavers if you do it drunk.

Memes come in all shapes in sizes. The 4 Things meme is what is getting waved around now.

If you are tagged, you are asked 4 Things

- 4 Jobs I have had, 4 Movies I can watch over and over, 4 TV shows I watch, 4 places i have been on vacation

Can we all just disagree that this is pretty damn stupid ?

If you want to fillup a page on myspace or tagworld, meme away. But my goodness, real bloggers are answering memes. RSS feeds around the world are getting headlines with dumbass meme responses. Is this because of Bloggers Cramp ?

I dont know. The wave’s best days are behind it. We need to put question memes on the bench right next to it

The Wealth of Networks, by Yochai Benkler
Topic: Technology 5:04 pm EDT, Apr  2, 2006

With the radical changes in information production that the Internet has introduced, we stand at an important moment of transition, says Yochai Benkler in this thought-provoking book. The phenomenon he describes as social production is reshaping markets, while at the same time offering new opportunities to enhance individual freedom, cultural diversity, political discourse, and justice. But these results are by no means inevitable: a systematic campaign to protect the entrenched industrial information economy of the last century threatens the promise of today’s emerging networked information environment.

In this comprehensive social theory of the Internet and the networked information economy, Benkler describes how patterns of information, knowledge, and cultural production are changing—and shows that the way information and knowledge are made available can either limit or enlarge the ways people can create and express themselves. He describes the range of legal and policy choices that confront us and maintains that there is much to be gained—or lost—by the decisions we make today.
