Appease your inner geek
Any geek worth mentioning has been to SourceForge.net at least once in their life. As a matter of fact, I found an open source program there called POPFile that I simply cannot live without. Now as we all know; "Time is like money because everybody wants some from ya." We don't always have the opportunity to check out the latest software releases from SourceForge.net. Perhaps the thought never even entered our minds. Then a rival geek brags about their latest "open source find" all over the message boards. Don't you hate that? It sure drives me nuts, that's for sure. Fortunately for me I have my buddy RSS to appease my inner geek. The result; enter SourceForge.net's new software release RSS feed. (The feed does come up blank, but it works.) I can save a trip to their website everyday and remain informed of the latest developments in open source software. Mmm, now every time I open my aggregator I can actually feel the open source goodness tingling my nostrils. ;-)...

Tagging conventions for microcontent
Jon Udell has put up his structured blog search which allows you to write XPaths over an XML representation of his blog and get some useful information out of it. In the accompanying blog post he makes the plea for well formedness, since that makes things easier. No argument from me. What I'm more interested in is a description of his tagging conventions.

The new "Zeldman Made Us Do It!" edition of the W3C's free online markup validation service includes human-friendly error messages that you can customize, and a "fussy parsing" mode that catches technically kosher but problematic patches in your markup.

Categorical indirection
Don Park's post on how to link blogs and wikis is actually an instance of the following. Take a category, or view (if you prefer database terminology) and send it off to somewhere else. This is cool, and another reason why multiple categorization would be useful. Each category can do its own rendering, transmission, etc.
