2,000 words A year ago This year What do you think? []  links to this post    1:28:30 PM   Favorite photos to your site via the Flickr API James Snell: I went ahead and did it myself. Look at the bottom of my home page. Using the Flickr API, a simple XML File, XSLT, the W3C XSLT Transform Service and a MovableType plugin called IncludePlus, I am able to display my favorite Flickr pic's proudly from my Weblog. Out of reach from the man on the street, but very cool nonetheless. The possibilities that Flickr's API opens up to outside developers are endless.

Welcome, Hassan! Good news: Today I'm moving yet another person out of my "without a weblog" blogroll category (in the left sidebar). Collaborator and friend (and fellow Canadian) Hassan Masum has started blogging over at the WorldChanging group blog. His name may ring a bell, as the articles he published in First Monday, The Open Opinion Layer and Manifesto for the Reputation Society, were both well-received in the blogosphere.

But Google badly needs good link text! Especially given that BB author Cory Doctorow loves Google and Google loves BoingBoing, you would expect them to try and help Google out... am I missing something?

Montreal conference: update on the process Things are getting moving a little over on the conference wiki. Marie-Chantal has listed the objectives and proposed a process to form a core team, which I think totally makes sense. List yourself as a candidate core organizer if you're willing to put significant time and energy into this. Les choses commencent à bouger sur le wiki de la conférence. Marie-Chantal a dressé une liste d'objectifs et proposé une démarche pour former un comité organisateur principal, qui me semble avoir beaucoup de bon sens. Portez-vous candidat organisateur si vous voulez investir une quantité significative de temps et d'énergie dans ce projet.
