Turn Web Content Into A Map With GeoMaker →

oneone:

At the end of last May, Yahoo released an experimental version of Placemaker, a “geo-enrichment” platform. What it does is help developers make applications location-aware by identifying places…
BricaBox could have used this…

I am not the kind of girl who freaks out over a new pair of shoes, unless those shoes happen to be Sperry Top-Siders.
I’m just not the kind of girl to wear Sperry Top-Siders. But I’m not from Princeton either ;-)

Quick Poll

I do, every day. Now I feel all insecure. What am I supposed to be doing besides reading RSS feeds? I’m so behind the times.

Does anyone still read their RSS feeds?

I don’t.

I do. Every day (well not all of them every day, but I open my reader every day and read).

I used to never use RSS because it took away the context of design on pages, and recently (this year) have been using google reader for sites that look generic, and manually have tab sets for sites that have interesting/useful/contextual design.

RSS is boring, but useful.

Rick, I stopped because I felt like I could get all the “important stuff” from Twitter. Now that I’m over Twitter, I’m thinking about reading RSS again.

Basically, I can only keep up with one feed at a time. For a while that was RSS, then it was Twitter, now it’s Tumblr and a dash of Foursquare.

But I don’t leave RSS out of the fight… it may come back around as a feed I pay attention to…

I think this graph, found on Trendrr (amazing new interface!) says interesting things about my last year and Twitter’s last year.

GROYT! (Gratuitous Reblog of Yourself Thursday)

The post I did last year about closing BricaBox is the one thing I’ve written which I continue to read to remind myself of everything I learned during that startup. I wrote it with the scars still very fresh, and a year later, I’m reading it again.

quote I thought if I was in a position to do some good in the world, I ought to do it. The well known Hebrew motto, Tikkun Olam, means to Repair the World. That means it is the task of everyone who is capable to do it. The proverb also instructs us that it’s not up to you to finish the task. But you must always continue to work at it. So, that’s what I’ve tried to do.

Harris Weston, who passed away this week. He was my grandfather’s cousin. How lucky am I to be a part of this family?
