Comments on: Call Sign - Blog Sign? http://simonberry.ruralnet.org.uk/2007/12/19/call-sign-blog-sign/ People, places and ICT Thu, 20 Nov 2008 12:27:41 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.6.3 By: Simon Berry http://simonberry.ruralnet.org.uk/2007/12/19/call-sign-blog-sign/#comment-15 Simon Berry Thu, 27 Dec 2007 16:05:16 +0000 http://simonberry.ruralnet.org.uk/2007/12/19/call-sign-blog-sign/#comment-15 Thanks for the comment Beth. How might that work? Well, I am quite new to the world of blogging and I have several friends and acquaintances who blog: you, David Wilcox, Ed Mitchell, Nick Booth, Steve Bridger to mention a few. I find it really difficult to keep up. I miss things that they write that I would find useful. From conversations with them, I know they miss stuff too. If David wrote something that he knew I would be interested in he would tag it as normal but also add the 's1m0nb3rry' tag as well. Likewise, if I wrote something that I wanted David to note, I would tag it 'd4v1dw1lc0x' to draw it to his attention. I would use bloglines/technorati etc to aggregate on the 's1m0nb3rry' and give these top priority on my reading list. It way be that there are already techniques to achieve this but I haven't come across them. Thanks for the comment Beth. How might that work?

If David wrote something that he knew I would be interested in he would tag it as normal but also add the ’s1m0nb3rry’ tag as well. Likewise, if I wrote something that I wanted David to note, I would tag it ‘d4v1dw1lc0x’ to draw it to his attention.

Why not just one tag that we all see? Too much signal to noise? How might that work? Why not just one tag that we all see? Too much signal to noise?
