Signed up for Simpy today. Another tagging social bookmark thing. This appears to cache the pages though and you can import and export bookmarks but what I like is it will also allow you make notes and store them. Hard to find what other users are tagging though.

Invisible people have invisible rights. That is all. Let it soak in.

Engadget gets first view of the new Motorola iTunes Phone. Looks boring really.

Via BoingBoing. Woman doesn’t clean up her dog’s mess — blog infamy ensues.

As Adam Curry said: There are no secrets, only information you don’t yet have… There’s no way you can hide with in the most connection country in the World.

Via Macdara Conroy comes a link to Tim Porter on the future of newspapers. Yes, more of this debate which gets some in the traditional print world quite emotive. How many in the irishblogs will be the ones taking part and shaping the Irish newsrooms of the future?

Googleshame definition: The use of Google tricks like Googlebombing to associate embarassing phrases with your Mark which result in the mark’s website appearing first in Google or using link phrases to make your protest site appear in search results for your mark’s site. An example would be the “more evil than Satan” googlebomb of a few years ago which brought you to the Microsoft website or doing a search for Beamish and Crawford will bring you to Tom Raftery’s Beamish and Crawford website.

Gavin’s Irish Corruption Site is already number one in google for the phrase “Irish Corruption”. Bernie suggested the irishcorruption tag with technorati too. So, this appears to be the first to use this tag.

I would hope that as Gavin’s site gets more traffic and eyeballs that it will eventually draw in some people that could get Gavin new information not available in the press so that he becomes a prime newssource in time. Drudge, though maybe with less of the Jerry Springer tendencies. Ireland needs something like this. There’s certainly a gap in the market.

On Dec. 4, 1982, a deeply suntanned man, about 40 years old, walked into the Sacred Heart Catholic Church in Boise, Idaho, and readied himself for confession…. the man swallowed a cyanide capsule. A few minutes later, he was dead.

Sounds like the opening of a thriller. This is a true story however and asks Who killed Fr. Paddy Ryan?

Elvis Mosiac made from stickies. Perfect for our “Statement Wall” in work.

How to deal with burnout.
