David F. Gallagher's remarks at 'Revenge of the Blog'

Gallagher has posted a version of his remarks from the Blog conference at Yale. He says, "I'm more of a reporter than a pundit" and offers three anecdotes along with some follow up comments.

Don't miss his photolog (managed with Blogger).

I can't decide, for myself, whether to manage a separate photoblog, or stick with my current approach, which involves making little galleries and linking thumbnails into my personal blog (X-POLLEN), echoing it here if i think the imagery might have wider appeal (using Radio's multiauthor blog tool to automatically add the blog's feed to the x-syndicate category here, along with a number of other channels).

But now that I spell it out, that seems overly complicated, despite the advantage of integrating it with the blog and not compartmentalizing everything.

A compromise approach might be to make a photo category at x-pollen and post selected photos there. The category page would become the new photolog. That might be the ticket. I've got some recent photos I've been meaning to download off the camera stick anyway.

RSS feeds for Channel Z nodes?: This is a question for Dave Winer but maybe Andrew Grumet or someone else who has insight into Dave's latest innovations in weblog concepts could take a stab at it too: I assume each of the nodes in the aggregator hierarchy will have RSS feeds (or may already have XML renderings...

Thoughts on templates: XIAN, I wasn thinking that we could add the "subscribe to this topic" feature that scriptygoddess has. If so, FILCHY, would you like to work on getting that code together? If so, make a neew template because we have not done a full backup of the templates yet. Again, in case... (system)
