Based on the great comments I received to post.icio.us a week ago, I've been doing some experimenting on R/WW. First I tried out the '5 links to a post' style (again). I don't think it worked, for me or for you. So now what I'm going to do is the...
I've been trying to figure out a way to do a daily Web 2.0 update with links - without being, you know... one of those blogs that just links to other blogs. What I'm looking for is something in-between del.icio.us and a 'real' post.My 'Web 2.0 News' posts from 1-2...

Today dawns in New Zealand as the 20th April 2005, which happens to be the 2nd birthday of Read/Write Web. Yes, two years ago today I posted my first blog post on R/WW (although I'd tinkered with blogging a year or so before that). Over the past 2 years blogging...
This week: non-blog uses for RSS (including Enterprise and Consumer), a new web-based delivery system for Associated Press, RSS advertising, Bigco action, Bloglines vs Technorati.RSS not only for blogsRight now there's a lot of activity around utilising RSS outside blogging. I've said before that blogging is and always will be...
This is my final post on the JupiterResearch report entitled RSS Readers: Addressing Market Opportunities with an Innovative News Medium (here are Part 1 and Part 2). I've enjoyed this chance to analyse the analysts and I'm keen to do it again. I wonder if other Analyst companies would be...
Last week I started my review of a JupiterResearch report entitled RSS Readers: Addressing Market Opportunities with an Innovative News Medium. I covered the first couple of pages of the report, in which JupiterResearch asked: What Is RSS and Where Is It Used? I was interested to see what Michael...
Recently I was invited by JupiterResearch VP & Research Director Michael Gartenberg to be a part of their new blogging program. The deal: I get a free copy of an analyst report relevant to my specialty and in return I will offer my own blog-style analysis of it. What this...
This week: ETech notes, Yahoo love-in, Web 2.0 acquisition deals continue, Hacking Web 2.0, ubiquitous storage. ETech TakeawaysI was on holiday the week ETech occurred, so I've been spending the past week catching up. My food-themed notes are here. Also during that week the next Web 2.0 conference was announced -...
A collaborative stats project using Feedburner data was launched on this blog yesterday. It's an informal project, but I really hope the blogosphere gets behind it. I've even brought out the old Uncle Sam Needs You! image :-) Basically we need: a) your Feedburner data, and/or b) your analysis. It...
Last week I wrote about my blog's subscription growth, inspired by Jon Udell's analysis of Bloglines Public Subscribers. In a subsequent email discussion with Jon Udell, we both wondered whether Feedburner data would show similar trends to the Bloglines data. Jon suggested a collaborative project could be launched in the...
Time for your weekly dose of Web 2.0. This week: Yahoo yahoo yahoo (is there an echo in here?), Wikipedia, Web 2.0 start-ups, AutoLink (I know, but bear with me...), Ruby on Rails. btw what's the best time of the week to publish this regular feature of R/WW? OK let's...
A look back at the week that was in the world of Web 2.0. This week: Google's AutoLinks feature, IE7, NY Times buys About.com, more Big Media blogging coverage, Bloglines hacks.AutoLinks and AnnotationEver since Google made it big, many people have been looking for a chance to pin the 'evil'...
Elise Bauer has posted a comprehensive analysis of Weblog Authoring Tools market share. As with RSS Aggregator market share stats, there are a lot of caveats. But much can be gleaned from Elise's post, which is a continuation of an analysis she did in August 2004. The data is gathered...
Mary Hodder has the scoop, which if true is huge news in the Web 2.0 world. Also quite eerie given what I wrote yesterday! Here's what Mary blogged:"Ask Jeeves Buys Bloglines(Updated 12:30pm. This was apparently going to be announced Tuesday, not Monday.)That's the scoop. Ask Jeeves is integrating Bloglines into...
Alf Eaton has come up with a neat little de.icio.us hack. It lists out the "speediest gatherers" for your del.icio.us page (last 100 items), based on the posting date of items. I think this means it lists out the people who linked to the same thing as you, but got...
Some of the Web 2.0 trends and talk I tracked this week... accompanied by some dodgy Austin Powers subheaders.Tagalicious, baby, yeah!Flickr and del.icio.us made tagging cool, now every social software app is doing it. Technorati, The Robot Co-op and Metafilter were among the companies braggin' about taggin' this week. There...
Great news! Prompted by my December post about RSS Reader Market Share, Feedburner (the company I selected as the most promising Web 2.0 company of 2004/5) has just released their own RSS Aggregator stats. This is exactly what I asked for, because statistically the Feedburner data is much much bigger...
One of my favourite articles of 2004 was a transcript of a speech by Tom Curley, CEO of the Associated Press. In it he said that "...content will be more important than its container in this next phase [of the Web]". Why? Because "killer apps, such as search, RSS and...
