RecentChangesCamp in Palo Alto this Weekend

I'm in London this weekend on business, so its a shame to miss RecentChangesCamp in Palo Alto.  Hosted by Socialtext, the event is more than a Barcamp for wikis.  It draws people from afar with in interest in wiki spirit. 

If you are in town, definitely stop by.

Playing with Triggit

I twittered that Triggit was the coolest thing I saw at Web 2.0 Expo.  Later on, they won the Launch Pad contest.  I've been watching these guys since they started showing up a Barcamps.  They've hit upon making adding widget content and ads on a blog or site dead simple.

By doing so, they make the act of placing an ad engaging.  When everyone is a publisher, the gestures they make empower influence which is far greater than basic impressions. So bear with me for a while I experiment.  It won't show up in RSS feeds, but basically I'm learning Blinglish on my blog.
