Tags have gone commercial

You may have seen the Million Dollar Homepage, wherein some guy is selling ads on his site at $1 per pixel. Bet you wish you thought of that, huh?

There have been many variations to draw inspiration from that model in the few months since it’s been up, and here’s the latest: 1000tags, which is combining the Web 2.0 notion of tags and folksonomies with that there filthy lucre to offer a way to buy your way into a paid tag cloud.

The flipside of their deal, is 1000tags is giving a certain number of bloggers who talk about them their own tag for free if they talk about the service. So here I am. Do I win a tag?

My Turkish compadre

At least I think this is in Turkish. I wonder why he has linked to my site? I do not know you, but thank you, friend.

Happy new year

Time to resolve stuff, like more frequent blogging. My family’s got a blog that’s probably not too interesting for non-family members, but it’s doing pretty well. And now it seems that pretty much everybody I know is doing this sort of thing. I’m rejoining the century!

Getting my own place

I’ve moved this sucka to monoglot.com. I cannot as yet promise anything cooler than three (3) half-assed posts.

Also, I am in Canada.

Why a blog?

Oh geez. Another blog. Hi mostly I created this so I could make smarmy comments on Pat Rapa’s story-a-day blog. He’s rather thoughtful about the stories he reads, and probably will be reading stories and writing about them when I’ve moved on to new distractions like CB Radio2, which I just invented but probably really exists. I’ll Google and let you know some day, or you will.
