\nEric Raymond is back<\/a> and blogging at “Armed and Dangerous<\/a>” where he writes, “No, I have not vanished from the earth: The book is nearly wrapped up and I may be able to start blogging again shortly. In the meantime, note that my website has moved. It is now at http:\/\/www.catb.org\/~esr\/<\/a>.<\/p>\n \n“The Ecosystem Returns<\/a>” reads in part, “After a long hiatus, the Blogosphere Ecosystem has returned to The Truth Laid Bare<\/a>. You can find it right here, in all its glorious silliness. This time around, I did it right: it’s fully automated, executing once a day in the early morning using PHP scripts and storing all the results in a MySQL database.”<\/p>\n \nThe similar announcement at<\/a> WebBlog MetaData Initiative<\/a> reminded me to think about adding weblog page attributes<\/a> to my own blogs. \nblogroots<\/a> (with blogpopuli<\/a>) and blogstreet<\/a>, “Blog Neighborhood, Top Blogs, Search, RSS and Utilities”<\/p>\n \nI stumbled acros Rock, Paper, Stone: The Biz Stone Guide to Independent Publishing<\/a> from last spring … a dandy article, and I hear Biz Stone<\/a>‘s “Blogging: Genius Strategies for Instant Web Content” is good too. [You noticed that it isn`t a link? Well, a) I think the title sux, and b) it pissed me off that I can`’t afford it. (Yes, I really do think the title sux … that wouldn’t stop me from buying a good text though.)]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

\nNot only does blogads<\/a> have an interesting set of blogs that are selling ads<\/a>, but they run an interesting blog<\/a> themselves.<\/p>\n
