Meta Blogging - Category Archive
Apart from posting links, I’ve not been writing here much. Partly that has been through lack of attention, in part because I have been posting (occasionally) on my other blog, but there’s also been another factor – I’m busy with lots of interesting things at work, but have not felt able to write about them.

One of the reasons I’ve been quiet in this blog has been that I have started another blog specifically focused on Managing Successful Programmes.
When I set that blog up, I was planning on attending a training course in June on Managing Successful Programmes (MSP), leading (hopefully) to the practitioner certificatation. MSP is the UK [...]
Having mentioned Qumana in a recent post, the ever-vigilant Qumana team picked up on my comment and asked if I’d look again at the tool. As I promised, here is a note of my re-visit. In the spirit of the thing, this post is written using the tool (3.0.0-b2 Beta).
The two things that put me [...]

New on the blogroll is The “Does it Work?” Diary from my friend Clare Walker.
She’s taken on the challenge of documenting “Which personal development techniques actually work”, and amongst other things is documenting a self-experiment on the positive affect on mood obtained by abstaining from watching television news.
She says:
I’m not certain why this [...]

Suw Charman's done a great job of
capturing the 11 core themes from the
Blogwalk "
Window Wiki". As people reflect on the event there is discussion about how to best develop the ideas from this session and how to ensure better learning next time.
The roles of a personal wiki and a blog in combination
This posting is a community experiment that tests how a meme, represented by this blog posting, spreads across blogspace, physical space and time. It will help to show how ideas travel across blogs in space and time and how blogs are connected. It may also help to show which blogs are most influential in the propagation of memes. The dataset from this experiment will be public, and can be located via Google (or Technorati) by doing a search for the GUID for this meme (as098398298250swg9e98929872525389t9987898tq98wteqtgaq62010920352598gawst).
Lilia Efimova is writing about her dream weblog / wiki tool...
In between working too hard and squeezing in odd days off to use up holiday I seem to have been spending most of my time doing things which either I can't/won't blog about or which haven't stimulated any blogging-related thought!
The online Action Research 'course':http://www.scu.edu.au/schools/gcm/ar/areol/areolhome.html I mentioned 'earlier':http://www.synesthesia.co.uk/blog/archives/action_research/000289.php has kicked off - there have been two modules published. Traffic on the discussion group seems so far to be about 10 emails per day, mostly still intros of participants. I can however see that I shall have to explicitly schedule time to take this in, work with the materials, contribute to the groups.
“Andy Borrows(Older and growing…)”:http://olderandgrowing.blogspot.com/ has discovered the soul of a writer inside an engineer. One of his better recent pieces is as a “guest writer(Heart @ Work)”:http://www.heartatwork.blogspot.com/2004_02_01_heartatwork_archive.html#107579760624826228
on “Heart at Work(Heart at Work: Lois Annich’s weblog)”:http://www.heartatwork.blogspot.com, in which he ends with a metaphor that works superbly for me too…
It struck me that blogging is like [...]

In Blogs and Knowledge Sharing, Ton picks up the story of why we do this by considering blogs as story-telling – more specifically a way of telling the story of how the writer has discovered some knowledge complete with all the false leads and wrong turns.

Thoughts about the perennial "why do I blog"
I think I’ve discovered that Blogging is a dark-months sport for me! Anyway, I’m back… for a while at least!

I think I may need to turn to Gary Turner’s Insure-a-blog service…
Here at Insure-a-blog our team of crack (addicted) ghostwriters are at your disposal, ready to fill that inevitable of all inevitables, the day when you have nothing worthwhile to say on your weblog. Perish the thought that such an horrific thing could ever happen [...]
Scobleizer has this to say today:
Is weblogging all about the traffic? [...]If all you measure is traffic aimed at your head, then you’ve gone astray. [...] To me, it’s “what can I learn by visiting you?” Do you entertain? Teach? Inspire? [...]I’d like to measure my weblogging success some other way.

Gert at mad musings of me(uk) has just defined this sport as
checking your site stats and then hitting on the site of anybody who has come to you from their stats…in the hope that they will check their stats again and come back to your site in the hope that you will check your stats [...]
