Thinking of starting a blog?
Don’t bother!
I found this site via Development Gateway. It compares economies and offers rankings to quantify how easy it is to set up or shut down a business:

Here are my short notes on new Wordpress plugins I’m trying out at Chiperoni.org:
SEO Title Tag
I read about this in a WordCamp 2007 report last weekend. The corresponding plugin web page is here.
If you’re using K2, open header.php and replace everything within the title tag with this:
<title>< ?php if (function_exists(’seo_title_tag’)) { seo_title_tag(); } else […]
I’ve decided to move to Mac… and I’ve been asking other Mac users for tips regarding software. And the list is long.

I’ve been reading thru various WordCamp 2007 posts. And I’ve found quite a number of useful tips. This evening I quickly skipped thru Lorelle’s slides:
with lots of very useful advice how to build content.
Just a couple of thoughts to carry on the conversation:
I agree that you should spend extra time to write better posts. […]

just read about the African Cookbook Project.
You can submit your favourite African recipe at:
questions (at) betumi.com.
Off the top of my head and based on the recipes I’ve published here at Chiperoni.org, I would say banana bread.
I’m sending an email to Blantyre to ask my mom…

I installed Sunbird and Sugarbird (aka Asertiva Extension for Sugar CRM) for Thunderbird. Even though I’ll probably need to go thru the process again in a couple of weeks.
Print it out and send it home:
I took a couple of spontaneous snapshots in St.Alban. Mostly stuff I see when I go running along the riverbanks. Like this graffiti. Or this analog sms.
BTW, you can see my recent Flickr pics on black.
Listening in to several videos on DSLRs and lenses…

Freaky-flash.de is an old favorite site of mine, which I found about 5 or 6 years ago. Nice to see that some things last.
Here’s a fave.
Turn up the volume and move the mouse over the birds.
Via this Flickr comment I heard that there’s a Sakku competition for bloggers…
I already blogged about Sakku bags some time ago. And I would love to win a bag. As a knowledge worker and digital nomad, I believe I’m the right candidate
I’ll write a review.
Take photos.
And test the solar […]
Stumbled across this Businessweek chart on what people are doing online:

What others are saying about corporate blogging
I like this:
Actions always prove louder than words. Lead by example. Give people something to aspire to but don’t make it so daunting that they will be easily discouraged.
This holds true for a lot of other things as well, not just blogging…
Apparently the number of blogs is peaking and […]

I’d just like to check in and report that the Neighborhood Information System (NIS) is working great here…
This morning I had a small note pegged to my bike’s brake wires, asking me if my neighbor could borrow my 2nd bicycle for a visiting family member. No need for Twitter, Jaiku, Facebook et al….
Total […]

fun.
Reminds me of cotton monsters.
Basel-based artist and illustrator, Martin Gyger, has launched a website:
The site uses Satellite and a Flickr account to display the artwork. Simple.
Couple of my favorites are [1] [2] [3]
Browse thru the site, send a friendly welcome email, or leave a Flickr comment…
Is it benefitted or benefited?
Saw the play “Angst” at Theater Basel. It’s a kind of like a mashup with glimpses of 3 separate households on one stage, which then interweave towards the end. Entertaining. But it is not really deep or philosophical or thought-provoking. Covers all types of fear…
Saw the movie “The Namesake”. Sad and moving. Great mood. A […]
Just 4 months after the motherboard was replaced in my workplace laptop: end of life. I couldn’t start up my laptop yesterday morning. The 3 year service guarantee has expired. Which means I get to order a new one.
The choices:
It’s Dell or MacBookPro with Parallels.
A regular Chiperoni reader asked about my opinion on Scoble’s recent post on PR and developers.
Not an easy question to answer. I’ve been following a pragmatic way. And I’m in a smallish company where I need to generate interest rather than block off journalist queries. A very different situation.
I would tend to agree […]
