Spring Cleaning

Ok, been doing this blogging thing for six months and it is time to get the house in order.  First, new bloggroll for My Blog Experience category (where I try to capture the learning experience)-- as I need to find documentation to do a couple of things, might as well get all the reference links properly cataloged.

Oh yeah, learned a new trick yesterday as I got my activerenderer tool working. 

More as the day progresses.

Much to read

Bloggers Digest.

No time to go into anything in depth, but I've got a pile of links I still want to share...

Ruby has a blog! Very cool. Ruby's an old friend who just showed up in my Technorati watchlist. She talks about the connection here.

Speaking of Technorati, Dave Sifry explains why it keeps getting better in Zen and the Art of Bugfixing.

Britt explains a bit more about Xpertweb. Actually, quite a bit. Good reading & thinking there.

Mitch Ratcliffe has more in Caveat Venditor.

Companies that blog —

1. Ross Mayfield on Conversational Enterprise
2. Griff Wigley's list (quite a large one, including at least one politician)
3. Dan Bricklin on business blogging
4. Cape Clear's CapeScience (plus Jorgen Thelin, Cape Clear's Cheif Scientist — with thanks to Tom Murphy for both)

Moxie: Canter's. Without fail, something strangely interesting always happens there in the early morning hours.

Blogflocking is a meme on the move.

Maybe I'm just a skeptic...

But, if this amount does exceed the net worth of the companies, then bankruptcy logically follows.  Could Ashcroft's sudden interest be a ploy to allow the companies to declare bankruptcy and have the state settlement's discharged?  Nah... no one could possibly be thinking that way.
