Microsoft's MSN blogging site auto-censors new blogs. Xeni Jardin, arguably among the keenest observers in the blogosphere, found herself incapable of creating any number of blogs on MSN. Bathroom humor got through, where possibly important cultural titles were nixed. In Ms. Jardin's words:
"The conclusion? A mixed bag of results that manages to do what most attempts to automate censorship do -- make fools of the censors."
It's hard to avoid the effects MS' ubiquitous products have already had on culture - I dread the notion that they are building their 'morals' into software. Do we really want these guys anywhere near our TV and DVD player and stereo?... |

A fundamentally different way to blog is what I have in mind: actually, a better way to display content, especially visual content, and I'm not just talking about replacing Radio with Movable Type. We'll be moving gulker.com to a higher bandwidth connection soon: and hope to begin work on some prototypes of the new thing... Comments 8:15:48 AM

The $300 million blog: HP is using a blog as a key part of a $300 million campaign for its digital cameras and other consumer markets - $300 million is a pretty sure sign that blogs have fully arrived as a credible medium. Especially interesting that it's a community blog, featuring the photos of HP customers.
Two points here: one is that marketing is increasingly becoming a one-to-one affair and media like this blog make it affordable for a marketer to reach millions in a more personal way than "broadcast" media. The other is that customers are willing to do quite a bit of work - taking and uploading photos in this case - to help spread the word about HP's products. Interesting to see what's next in mass personalization... |

Should news organizations edit reporters' 'blogs? A teacup tempest, reported by a newspaper, of course. Nobody else cares... Comments 8:59:55 AM

Roger has moved his blog to Moveable Type: OK, OK, I know MT and its easy-to-use offshoot Typepad are good. Lots of you-all have told me that. And Roger's still annoyed that Radio crashed, badly, and took all of his blog with it. But I'm a Radio/Manilla guy, OK? I like 'em, I love the scripting-language-cum-database internals and I ain't budging. OK? Easier to argue my politics and religion with me than platform choice... Comments 8:45:42 PM
