Blog on blog

Been a bit slow on this site becaus others take the time.

The original idea had only been to collect and collate on a narrow range of topics such as social software people, weblogs are being used for, new software, webloggers in trouble, design, and similar.

Going bak to checking Technorati and Blogwise after not bothering for a quite a long time I realise we are talking standards here.

This site popped up doing a bit of checking on the background to Blogwise:

MyBlog.com

It has a compendious blogroll on all things blog which is quite handty for those either new to it or who are beginning to think about what they are and mean.


Blogosphere News is another way to skin the cat.

Last night at the cinema, a trailer was played for a movie called The Perfect Man. Remarkably, the trailer started with lead Hillary Duff writing an entry into her blog (the voiceover/narrative of the post began 'Dear fellow bloggers...'). Yet another confirmation that the word blog has entered mainstream media.

Ah well, that means my screenplay will not be the first overt reference to a blog. However, this will one not be the last. Email on screen and (even in the title) is frequently used as a device and is becoming a bit of a commonplace.

How many times have you seen a fairly up-to-date movie that has a very old-style GUI? Maybe the camera man kept on saying: "Nope. everytime I zoom in you can see the pixels..." so they had to get some archaic PC out to do that "I've accessed the database" bit.
