I noticed the same thing. I'll wait one week and if they don't change their policy I'll just remove /. from my blogroll.

Re:, About: Link: proposed prefix convention in weblog titles

Anthony Eden's weblog today gave me an idea I want to try out.

In his posts for april 24 several of his entries are titled "Re: something", like in email.

I post a few types of entries:

  • most of my posts are just interesting links with very few comments to indicate why they are interesting, or no comments at all most often, because I have too little time to blog. Usually I give them a title like "original title [source]", and just replicate that in the body of the entry.
  • In some posts I comment and discuss ideas presented in a link
  • In very rare entries I post an original thought (I'm not a very original or creative guy, more like a librarian lost in Borges Library of Babel :-)

I will generalize Anthony's practice with Re:, andf use other prefixes for the different types of Posts: Re: for an answer, About: for a deeper discussion, like the rdf:about attribute, Link: for a simple link with no added value, nothing for original posts.

Let's see where it leads me.

management by blog [d2r]

Agreed, it's just another tool. But I expect it to change organizational habits as profoundly as email did.

gibson ending his weblog

"The watched pot never boils."

It is true that weblogs brought me a great source of information, and an ability to share and synthesize them, but my creativity and productivity when I am actively weblogging took a hit.

I guess it must be a matter of finding the right balance in the use of the tool, just like it took me a few years to find a productive set of habits to deal with email.
