Mena's Corner: Six Apart Redesign Coming: "Six Apart Redesign Coming
01.30.2005

Later this week, we'll be unveiling a new redesign of the various Six Apart websites (Movable Type, TypePad and Six Apart corporate site). Hopefully, the changes that have been made will convey our desire to present all of Six Apart's websites in a cohesive and standard way. We've worked with the folks at Mule Design to make this redesign possible and, I think, you'll be happy with the results."

Ja, det er ganske svært at formidle, hvad Blogs er:

Via Prof. B., I see that the New York Times story on parents' weblogs has been published. I'm dismayed but not all that surprised with what's in there, and I'll tell you why."

World Economic Forum - Welcome to the Blogopolis
By providing highly personalized, real-time political information, blogging is reshaping how citizens make political decisions, for good and ill. 1) When do bloggers provide better information and analysis than conventional media? 2) Are bloggers effective media watchdogs? 3) Can bloggers be a positive political tool, and not just a threat to the powers that be? 4) What is the relationship between bloggers and democratic values?

Et blogprojekt som ved hjælp af Technorati's tag system opbygger et socialt system, hvor bloggeres fortællinger om 10 geografiske steder, de selv vælger, knyttes sammen.
Fantastisk inspiration til sociale blog-projekter. Jeg får øjeblikkeligt ideer til adskillige, som kunne være interessante i undervisningssamenhæng.......

Klastrup's Cataclysms forudser at valget vil få blogging til at blomstre i DK.

Et gæt på Yahoo's modtræk til Googles opkøb af Blogger:
The Internet Stock Blog: Yahoo to acquire Six Apart?: "Yahoo to acquire Six Apart?

Six Apart, the owner of hosted blogging service TypePad and publisher of blogging software Movable Type, just acquired LiveJournal. Within six months Six Apart itself will be acquired by Yahoo!."

The blogospere vil nok hoppe i stolen over artiklens begrundelse for gættet:
"Because the blogging platforms are the largest generators of new Web content, they are a natural target for the providers of PPC ads. Many bloggers dislike the notion of advertising on blogs, but they're in for a shock. Blogger, TypePad, LiveJournal and the other blogging platforms will make it much easier for Web publishers to profit from ads. They'll build contextual ads into Web site templates, and use the publishers' sign-up information to open simultaneous advertising accounts."

Næppe har SixApart købt LiveJournal før første ulykke indtræffer 7:35 pm PST:


Temporarily Unavailable
LiveJournal is currently down due to a massive power failure at our data center. We'll provide updates at /powerloss/ as they're available.

Our data center (Internap, the same one we've been at for many years) lost all its power, including redundant backup power, for some unknown reason. (unknown to us, at least) We're currently dealing with verifying the correct operation of our 100+ servers. Not fun. We're not happy about this. Sorry... :-/ More details later.
