links for 2006-02-11
New York Times to provide broadband video content – Editors Weblog Yes, please, more of that from everyone. Newspaper websites with video, audio, podcasts, slideshows, links to bloggers writing about each article. Add some sort of community/forum function and we’ll call it a day. Tomorrow, we’ll work on user-submitted stories. (tags: newspapers online+newspaper convergence)

Google hosts Gmail accounts for SJCC
Yes, you read that right. After all of, well, a day of speculation that Google was going to be involved in some sort of domain hosting for someone, somewhere, San Jose City College is the first organization that they’ve signed up. Uh, can we be next? Please? Considering that I’m willing to bet the LARGE…

Thanks Dave
Okay, I’ve got Dave‘s OPML doohickey working pretty well now, categories and all. It’s much lower pressure to write like this. Hence, the stream of consciousness the RSS-reading folks have been seeing for 20 minutes or so. It can’t possibly be as bad as the day I messed around for hours trying to rig up…

Deepest Sender Firefox Extension
Testing out Deepest Sender, an extension for Firefox that is letting me blog from a handy little window. We’ll see how quick and easy it is. I’m tempted to just pay more attention to what <a href=”http://scripting.com”>Dave</a> is up to with the OPML editor and WordPress, but I can’t pretend to have time for that…

Coming soon: the self-annotated New York Times
The New York Times bought Blogrunner, the company behind the Annotated New York Times. Bottom line? Expect to see the NYT linking to bloggers writing about its stories, pronto, a la WashingtonPost.com’s use of Technorati links. Good move on the part of the Times.
