BlogMatrix J?ger

Posted 26/04/2004 under miscellaneous

BlogMatrix J?ger is yet another Weblog and News site reader. But the difference between this reader and others is that it uses a single panel instrad of the “traditional three panel layout of most other readers. It will cost you US$15 to subscribe, but if you hurry you can pay only US$10. Worth a look at perhaps as they say that this reader will tell you ONLY what has updated.

unalog: Unalog!

Posted 26/04/2004 under miscellaneous

Unalog have produced this Alpha version of what seems to be another list of groups for persons interested in similar things to join and share links etc. I see that you can create a group and make it public or keep it private but other than that I’m not sure wht function Unalog serves that hasn’t been implemented previously somewhere else. Nevertheless, for the record they say…

This is unalog.

You can look at what various people and groups of people are reading on the web here. You can get an account and add your own links, and create and join groups here too. If you get an account, or create a group, either one can be made private, so nobody but you (if a private account) or your fellow group members (if a private group) can see your links.

Comment spam

Posted 10/11/2003 under miscellaneous

Comment spam from a home improvement business in Massachussetts who are selling an item to help seal attic stairways and fireplaces. Fat lot of good that will do for me in sunny Queensland, Australia.

Please don’t do any business with Batticdoor if you are in their area


on the road again

Posted 20/06/2003 under miscellaneous

Sunday, I am off to Sydney for a few days and then off to Vietnam for a week. So my sporadic attempts at blogging will become even more so. I know I can access a computer in Sydney and likewise in Vietnam. But I am more interested in living the moment than in reflecting upon it.

Plenty of time for reflection when I get back.


Quote from Bhabha

Posted 11/06/2003 under miscellaneous

I found this quote from Homi Bhabha in Elspeth Probyn’s book Outside Belongings. To me it is analogous of the migratory, nomadic weblogger, writing alone and yet desiring to be a part of a greater community;

the experience of migration?[which] in the nation of others, becomes a time of gathering?gatherings in the ghettos or caf?s of city centres; in the uncanny fluency of another?s language; gathering the signs of approval and acceptance, degrees, discourses, disciplines; gathering the memories of underdevelopment, of other worlds lived retroactively; gathering the past in a ritual of revival; gathering the present.

Six Log

Posted 05/01/2003 under miscellaneous

Benjamin and Mena Trott, the developers of ‘Movable Type’ (weblogging software) have started Six Log, a weblog representing their company, Six Apart. Basically it’s a place for technology postings, not limited to Movable Type. Although, having said that, most of the content does seem to centre on Movable Type.
