in Flickr: Open Up Tagging Your Photos to the Community, Please on Climb to the Stars

sure, just going to do that now (on the assumption that my Flickr account is set to the default.... ). Shame this is a bit hidden, isn't it!

in are those cynical geeks really not so cynical after all? on razorshine
i agree - yay! the sponsors. How amazing to go to two days of such smartness for no admission fee!

I think this was a really great example for sponsors for how to be quietly noticed and greatly appreciated/embraced. I've been to lots of things where the sponsors get their moment in the sun and every one is thinking 'sponsors blah blah blah blah'.

Do something useful - that seems to be the moral to the story!

in I like Derek’s “user-generated content” on Mathew's comments
hey Matthew, good luck with that search for an alternate term! I'll be interested to see what you come up with.

speaking for myself, I don't use the term because I'm a fan. I and others I know have been trying to find a better way to describe the amazing insights and creativity that individual people are contributing in various media formats to online spaces.

As you can see from that last sentence we still haven't come up with anything particularly catchy yet.

as ugly as it is, UGC (eh, the acronym is even worse) has stuck. We *need* some kind of grouping term for this kind of content (see, I have no big issue with the word content... it doesn't smell of packing peanuts to me). It's going to take something pretty amazing and resonant to both business and the rest of us, to unstick it. and, I agree, 'authentic media' isn't quite right. (at the very least because my clients will resent the implication that the rest of their media is inauthentic!)

in GoogleBorg assimilates MeasureMap on Mathew's comments
yes! this is what I don't understand! is Measure Map being bought as Google Analytics for Dummies? (no offense to Measure Map or its fans) Surely it would be just as easy to cut down the functionality of Google Analytics and release Analytics Lite for Blogs? (but then, you wouldn't want to write out the enormous AdSense sales pitch that is GA's other role, would you...)

i didn't get an invite to demo Measure Map either, so don't really know what they're offering, besides a sexy and hopefully v. usable ajax interface, and tools that I already have with Analytics and WordPress.

in Found is the new Search on kthread
hey Kristen,

thanks for adding me as a contact on Ma.gnolia - I feel a lot less lonely there now!

Do you get the feeling that something that Ma.gnolia is missing is the conversation that goes on in, say, Flickr? I know there's a menu item called 'messages' but I haven't been able to figure out how to message anyone yet. And I think i would be great to be able to have a bit of a discussion around the relative merits of different links etc.

What do you think?
