More Web 2.0 junk
3Do you love tags? Of course you do. How else would you find any photos on Flickr, or your future nerd-husband on Consumating.com? The idea of tags permeating everything is somewhat annoying to me: probably because I’m tired of seeing a million new Web 2.0esque sites popping up everyday. I have the unfortunate inability to refrain from joining things (sometimes things that haven’t even gone public beta yet…) so when I was pointed to 30daytags.com, I couldn’t resist.
Like del.icio.us and many other sites, you can view the tags in a giant cluster cloud. There, upon seeing something of interest, you click on the tag and bring up links that users have submitted that fall into that category (try “podcast” for example). The best part? After 30 days, the links expire. That way, according to the site, everything stays “fresh.” So far I’ve had a pretty good time looking around and seeing what people have added. But like most things I sign up for… I’ll probably be sick of it before my 30 days is up.
Like it?
5Do you like the new layout? Do you like that veronicabelmont.com is no longer a redirect? I sure do! Anyhow, thanks to Ryan for hosting me and making things work in good order.
I’ve been doing a lot of retail therapy lately. Tonight, I went a little overboard. I can’t even talk about it. Lets just say that going to Macy’s after a couple of drinks is not generally considered to be a good decision in most circles. Unfortunately, no one told my circle that. But do I feel better? YES THANK YOU.
I got a wonderful present today! An ulcer – the kind I think I can tolerate. It definitely brightened my day. God, I love presents. More in the tech department soon, I swear. Now that the site is the way I want it, things will pick up.
