New stuff

I have been experimenting with all sorts of new fangled technologies trying to grok the Web 2.0 idea.


Common Times - a news aggregator where the readers 'votes' replace the editor.

Del.icio.us - shared bookmarks.

Bloglines - a blog system and RSS feed reader.

One interesting aspect is that all three of these work together. When I post or bookmark something at Common Times, I can also post it to my del.icio.us list.

Digg is a tech news aggregator like Common Times.

And the parent site for Common Times is Common Media which has music for sale, legal video trading (via BitTorrent) and file sharing as well as the news aggregator. One busy coder!
