Testing my RSS feed it claims not to have been updated since march 4th. My local RSS is current but the cloud RSS is not getting updated. More testing. got it fixed. That was odd not detecting the changes in the rss.xml file for no apparent reason. Thanks Gilles for pointing that out to me.

This is actually the one of the kinds of models that Total Information Awareness had hoped to develop using 80 percent or so public domain material and supplementing the other 20 with electronic intelligence gathered various ways.
E-mail Reveals Real Leaders.
I've heard of similar studies before, but now HP has gotten into the game, studying how large groups email each other within a company to determine what the real organizational structure is. Apparently, they say that how people email each other determines who the really important people are, and who really reports to whom. They also say it determines who is at the "heart" of any sub-group. I wonder how accurate the system really is, and if it's actually useful for anything. Will people risk getting laid off if their email usage patterns indicate they not as important as they think they are? Found via GMSV. [Techdirt] [tins ::: Rick Klau's weblog]

It stuns me how much has been done is such a short amount of time. I've met so many great people and learned so much along the way and I'm not even past three fourths of a single year. I've started having a few meetups, my first with Ron Lusk while he was in Austin visiting for a wedding. Its funny how I always get the voice wrong in my mental map of fellow bloggers. I can't wait for what's next. Phil has been and will continue to contribute great things to my understanding of the blogging ecosystem. Phil's work demonstrates the existence of vast stocks and flows of Social Capital in weblogs. Thanks man.
1 Year old.
One year blogging. One year ago on Friday, I started blogging. I created my first weblog and made my first post, to announce my first open source project, Python Community Server. Since then, just about everything computer-related I've done in my spare time has had something to do with blogging.
The first weblog I regularly read was Joel On Software. I found out about Dave Winer's Scripting News when looking for information on SOAP (during my brief period of contribution to the Mono project), and that lead me to Radio UserLand and much hacking on community servers.
Blogging has brought me in touch with loads of new people -- notably Rogers Cadenhead, who appeared one day on my blog server, Robert Barksdale, who's still blogging there, and Georg Bauer, who's pretty much taken over the work on the PyCS project. More recently Seb Paquet (Mr. Personal Publishing), Marc Canter (International Man of Mystery) and Matt Mower. The ecosystem project brought out N.Z. Bear and many others. Somewhere in the middle of all that, Stephen Dulaney (who does research into social behaviour when he's not writing software) started writing to me out of the blue, and we've had some great conversations.
So thanks, guys, for making my last year much more interesting, helping me grow as a programmer and inspiring me to hack up new tools and sites. I wonder where we'll be next year ...
