Mobilicio.us

March 3, 2006

Today my colleague and I will be releasing a new project. Mobilicio.us is a mash-up between the del.icio.us bookmarking service and Google Mobile, a tool which “mobilizes” websites for viewing on limited-display browsers. Mobilicio.us will let you view your del.icio.us bookmarks from your phone’s browser and automatically mobilize any site you visit.
This has been an [...]

RSS Feed

February 22, 2006

I’m just posting to test my new custom-made RSS feed. My last 5 posts should be added to the rss file located here: recent.rss.
UPDATE: This is a post from the old blog, which was custom built. On the old system, it was a big deal that I managed to implement RSS feeds. With Wordpress, it’s [...]

Beaten to the Punch

February 14, 2006

Things are moving so fast in this “Web 2.0″ world. It is more crucial than ever to get your ideas to market faster than the competition. Because there is competition. No matter how novel your idea is, you have to assume that there is someone out there (probably a large group of someones) working on [...]

If anyone read this, I have two new toys up in “alpha” stages.
1) rateThings: This site allows you to rate and comment on items posted by me. The main idea of the site is to enable users to quickly view the best comments of people who disagree with their own standpoint. For example, if I [...]

Learn Like Ray Kurzweil

January 19, 2006

Ray Kurzweil was just interviewed by Ubiquity online magazine. They covered the usual topics, same old questions from any Ray Kurzweil interview with answers that are often nearly straight from his books.
However, there was a gem in this one about how Ray likes to pick a problem to tackle every night before he goes to [...]

Tagging

January 17, 2006

In the spur of the moment, one cold night not too long ago, I purchased the domain name “tagthenet.com”. I couldn’t figure out a good use for the domain that wouldn’t take up more time than I have, so I created a nice little site to park bookmarks to other “tagging” sites.
These kind of “directories” [...]

Stranger Studios v4

January 11, 2006

A new version of my web design portfolio is now online at StrangerStudios.com.
The Stranger Studios portfolio has gained some padding thanks to the great stuff done by my girlfriend and colleague, Kim Wallmeier.

Kim’s Portfolio

January 8, 2006

Kim’s new portfolio is online at http://kim.strangerstudios.com.
The site uses my new phpPortfolio© package. Kim modified the style sheets and I helped her do some other customizations to make it her own. I think it looks great.
Hopefully by the end of the day we will have Stranger Studios updated to use the portfolio also.
The idea is [...]

del.icio.us

January 3, 2006

One of the most interesting things about del.icio.us is how they made an English word using all three domain levels. Now that they own the icio.us domain, here are some other pages they could create:

ausp.icio.us
capr.icio.us
jud.icio.us
mal.icio.us
susp.icio.us
v.icio.us

And here are some others that dict.org tells me are real words:

artif.icio.us
avar.icio.us
cil.icio.us
conv.icio.us
extisp.icio.us
inausp.icio.us
injud.icio.us
inoff.icio.us
meretr.icio.us
multipl.icio.us
obstetr.icio.us
off.icio.us
overoff.icio.us
pern.icio.us
petrosil.icio.us
phen.icio.us
phoen.icio.us
self-susp.icio.us
sil.icio.us
unausp.icio.us
unoff.icio.us
unsusp.icio.us
venef.icio.us
verm.icio.us
