I'm new to blogging. But your links are fab reviews for the new user trying to make sense of everything

Thanks!

How the hell do you publish so many posts a day? Is that what you need to do around here to make it to the top? Jesus! I'd be out in no time. My fine bootie would probably go numb! Does yours? LOL

I'm an RSS subscriber too. I find that the more you post the less I read though, only on slow days do I actually read more than about 25% of what's there :)

A question - maybe there are politics involved that I don't get, but why not use del.icio.us for the links. You can still have an RSS feed from those links, but there is a good infrastrucure in place for finding new links and sharing links in place. For most people, there would be no functinal change -- an RSS feed full of linky goodness, but it would allow easty access to see how you have tagged things in categories, and I can also see how many other people are linking to the things you link to.

I subscribe to your link blog's RSS and I say please keep it up. There are days when ScobleFilter ™ is all I have time for.

Since it froze my computer, I can't say I'll be relying on it, no.

LayZ: you exist. Although I wish I could read your thoughts and make fun of you.

Neal, nevermind Scoble. He's a blogofacist. Unless you believe in blogging and have a blog yourself, he will not tolerate criticism or contrary opinions. Unless you have a blog, you don't exist in his world.

I use the same feature to share pages, but my main motivation is as a pending file, to review myself later to future blog posts.

Robert,

Why not do a little javascript action and put your starred items in your sidebar? You'll see this in my sidebar on my "Recently Enjoyed". The necessary javascript is available from Google (I can't remember the link... let me know if you want it and I'll find it).

Regards,
Doug

Yes! Yes! I subscribe to yours, and even use it as content in my own link blog. It allows me to have some more diverse feeds in Google Reader, as well as to discover new weblogs.

Robert,

I know this is the wrong place to ask .... but.
Do you know anyone who can help me develop an electric guitar for someone without the use of legs, hands etc. He has full range of motion of his arms with the exception of his hands. I thought of some form of modified keyboard type system or slide motion for the forearms.

Please let me know if you know anyone or team who might want to help. He played in a band when he was younger and you can see the longing in his eyes when he sees people playing on stage or in church. Thanks in advance. Please e-mail me contacts. I'll try to come up with a way to fund it out of my pocket.

Regards,
Russ

I like it too.

I subscribe to both your blog feed and your link blog feed in Google Reader.

I am very grateful to you for doing the link blog because it, along with all my other feeds, provides a good view of what is going on in the internet. Funnily, some of the items in your link blog end up in my link blog.....

I never read blogs anymore, for the reason that I have to keep clicking 'next page' 'next page' all the time. Google Reader is awesome.

Keep doing it!

I subscribe to the feed and it ends up in Google Reader along with the other 213 feeds I subscribe to. Occasionally you pick up on something interesting that's outside my normal set of tech feeds. Keep doing it! :)

Besides... you're reading the feeds anyway, and hitting Shift+S is so quick and painless... it's not like you're going to gain more than a couple minutes a day by not doing it...

I subscribed to your link blog in Reader ... occasionally I get a bit swamped (60 posts!), but you're doing all the hard work of finding links and it's easier to scan in reader with the keyboard shortcuts.

I love it.

Speaking of leaking to your links blog, I have a thought. Suppose I want to link to one of the blog your earmarked, how could I link to your link blog, as well as link to the blog where you found it, as well as link to the original post, in one go. There should be a widget that allows you to put the whole chain at the bottom of one's own post. It would credit everyone, and it would be interesting to follow the original post's voyage. But maybe there is already one such widget, and I am not aware of it.

I have only now discovered your links blog. I love it. Don't put it down just now.

love the link blog! keep it!

Neal: interesting. I love how you don't reveal your real identity. I also love how you don't show us anyone doing something that IS interesting. Sigh. I so wish you'd actually provide some value that we could subscribe to.

Re: Speaking of linking to other people…

Neal — Fri, 17 Nov 2006 14:17:24 -0000

I just checked it out for the first time, and I made sure to click through quite a few to get a good feel for what you were posting, etc. Having done that I've got to say I think the people above are just trying to see how far they can get their heads up your butt. Sorry, it just seems like the same boring attempt by boring nerds to share boring links to boring content that I see all over the net.

I suscribe to the link blog. It works great for me and I am always finding interesting things to clip and keep. There's some duplication with feeds I already subscribe to, but this is a great way to learn about other feeds that I don't monitor or that I don't even know about.

So it works for me, because you notice a lot the same kinds of things that I am interested in. And even though there are also things I don't care about, the quality is very high for me.

Seeing how well this works, I'm tempted to set up a river and do the same thing. But it's only temptation so far. And a mild one at that. Heh.

Gen: what's your blog's address? You should have linked to it.
