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.

Tom Adelstein has a new blog: How to write a book in 10 days. Tom just introduced me to Aristotle's Poetics.

Mitch Ratcliffe has more in Caveat Venditor.

Companies that blog —

Ross Mayfield on Conversational EnterpriseGriff Wigley's list (quite a large one, including at least one politician)At HP Labs, Steve Cayzer's Semantic Blogging for BibliographiesDan Bricklin on business bloggingDave Aiello's Chatham Township Data Corporation<Cape Clear's CapeScience (plus Jorgen Thelin, Cape Clear's Cheif Scientist — with thanks to Tom Murphy for both)Not to overlook Scoble's Corporate Weblogger's Manifesto

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

Speaking of another Canter, here's Marc's latest Open Standards Efforts status report.

Blogflocking is a meme on the move.

Caught between Iraq and a hard-on

That headline came to me in church yesterday while I pondered our current war plans.

[Later...] Hmm... I wonder if the King of Jordan said "place" or "on"?

A friend just said "Iraq and ruin" would make another good headline.

Bonus link: The Five Lessons of 911.

Another from Oliver Willis: Networks demand Bush stop diplomacy and get on with the war.

Kevin Sites is blogging live from Iraq.

Mitch expects the war to go badly.

Perry Anderson doesn't. In fact he takes apart every one of the opposition's gripes (great warblog fodder there).
