Valleywag has the scoop, but we’re still waiting to here from the GigaOM himself: Om Malik is leaving Business 2.0 and taking funding to ramp up his tech blog into an independent business. Still on amicable terms with Business 2.0, he will continue as a contributing editor.
That makes two revolutionary resignations breaking news [...]

You Are 30% Addicted to Blogthings
Okay, so you know how to take and post a Blogthing.
But you’re no addict. (Hey, this quiz *proves* it!)
For you, Blogthings is more of a healthy habit.
At least, that’s what you tell yourself!
How Addicted To Blogthings Are You?

You’ve got to be:

very quick at it, or
somewhat slow at, um, other things
and don’t forget to bring your pen!

I’ve been meaning to post a series on some of my favorite blogs, and TDavid gave me a good reason to get started now. He has some very nice things to say about my blog in his Father’s Day post: “He has been improving his own blogging [...]
I was just getting ready to write something like this for myself, when what do you know? Thanks, Simone. And thanks for the pointer, Randy.
Now I can get my daily FeedBurner stats in the same FeedDemon folder with my other statistics feeds.
I’m still trying to nail down exactly why, but I find a certain poetic justice in this story (via BoingBoing). Seems like the Federal Do Not Call Registry works just as well as most government programs.
Of course AT&T cares first and foremost for its customers. That’s why they’re now offering DSL service without requiring a voice line, at a cost savings of…a whole DOLLAR! (thanks GMSV)
Actually, they were required to offer this service as an FCC condition of their merger with SBC. AT&T paints the minuscule monthly [...]

Recent advances in future computing speed:
Harvard researchers believe that relatively inexpensive nanowire transistors could perform four to five times faster than existing silicon chips. Added bonus: the processors can be embedded in flexible plastics, so printed circuit boards are not required. This would make them ideal for compact, low-cost appliances such as cell [...]
TechCrunch was the first to give me the news: Opera 9 has been released. So I downloaded and played with it a bit. Check out the built-in bittorrent support (slow, as Marshall notes). Tab preview and widgets are, well, cute. Not enough here yet to pull me away from Firefox, even [...]
Speaking of Joes, somebody should hire Joe Gregorio. He even has one more year than I do of programming Windows in C/C++. You have to admire someone who has that kind of intestinal fortitude. Not to mention his significant experience with XML, Python, Perl, and Linux. Aren’t we supposed to be [...]
Scoble posted a very interesting entry, The Screwing of the Long Tail, in which (besides conjuring geometrically difficult if not painful mental imagery) he says that advertisers are ripping off bloggers by getting them to provide all the content for only a fraction of the revenue that the content lures to their ads. He [...]
Now here’s something cool. Lifehacker offers separate feeds by tag. Quite useful for a site that covers a huge array of topics. You can subscribe to a feed for just one topic, like “buying guide“, for instance.
Hmm. That isn’t offered by the Jerome’s Keywords tagging plugin I use. However, it [...]
Anyone who owns a dog knows that animals have thoughts and feelings that mirror some of those experienced by humans. Despite their often vastly different sensory experiences (as brilliantly elucidated by Temple Grandin in Animals in Translation), their kinship with humanity isn’t purely an illusion created by our tendency towards anthropopathism. We do, [...]
How to Build a Low-Cost, Extended-Range RFID Skimmer (via BoingBoing). Someone needs to give some serious thought towards securing RFID technology.

OK, Justin, I’ll bite.
My favorite programming projects all have one thing in common: invention.
It’s not a matter of whether the project includes its own “database access code” or not. If you had to invent that code, or some major aspect thereof, then it can be interesting. If you’re just having to type in [...]

Comment spammers are at least getting a little more creative with their content. They’ve gone beyond the usual “Great site! nicely organized” type of message to this one (of 358) I received today:

According to Randy Charles Morin, the YPN Blog is highlighting a known spammer. Randy asked us to spread the word, so that Yahoo gets the point. But considering what’s been happening to Yahoo search lately, they might not even notice.

I just downloaded, uploaded, and activated Jerome’s keywords manager, v2, by Johannes Jarolim. This WordPress plugin lets you manage the keywords associated with the Jerome’s keywords plugin, which I use for tagging. The management plugin dovetails nicely with my tag cloud widget, because it lets you rename tags across all posts, among other [...]
On Average, You Would Sell Out For
$1,123,950
At What Price Would You Sell Out?
Same as you, Randy. This one’s lame, though. The dollar amount above is what you get if you answer all of the questions “No” — which is the most idealistic (least materialistic) set of answers. If you answer all of them “Yes”, you [...]

Nick Bradbury likes to dive into projects code first. He argues that many of the issues that he runs into while developing a new feature cannot be foreseen in a requirements or design phase, so all that work would have to be significantly altered once he did get to the coding anyway.

After posting this entry about the YPN blog interviewing an SEO expert who spammed Randy Charles Morin, WordPress naturally pinged the YPN blog post, because I linked to it. Thus, I showed up in the comments section of that post, which prompted a comment from Chris Love:
