Today’s Links (04/08/05)

• About StumbleUpon
  “StumbleUpon is an intelligent browsing tool for sharing and discovering great websites. As you click Stumble!, you’ll get… pages [that] have been explicitly recommended (rated I like it) by friends and other SU members with similar interests”
• The Art Newspaper — Events, Politics and Economics
• Forbes.com Best of the Web
  Forbes pick best art weblogs. They all seem to be a bit rubbish.
• Blinksale | The easiest way to send invoices online
  I think it’s interesting that all these tiny businesses launching Rails apps are making products perfect for other tiny businesses.
• Magic Line
  “This is a Greasemonkey user script that adds a personal command // line for searching your browsing history, tags, XFN links, // autodiscovered RSS/Atom feeds and FOAF files, and much more.” Fucking. Hell.
• Pigsaw.org
  “The search for extraterrestrial life is long and difficult… Yet there are still an awful lot of people who like to look at pictures of sofas.”
• Internationale in 20+ languages - MP3 collection
• المعهد الحديث لتكنولوجيا الحاسبات واللغات
  The other Modern Institute!
• Guardian Unlimited | Arts features | Interview: Lady Sovereign
  Nice profile of Sov in the Grauniad. Definitely Grauniad in this case: for ‘Genita’ read ‘Gentina’, though ‘kronk’ could well an alternate term for ‘crunk’. Also, in true broadsheet style, this manages to be patronising while sniffily condemning the way Sov is usually patronised by the press.
• Dircaster
  “Drop this script in a directory and it will generate an RSS feed suitable for iPodder, etc based off the MP3 files in that directory. To ‘cast a new file, simply upload it to the directory containing this script.”
• Geominder
  “Geominder allows you to create location-based reminders [on your ‘phone] that stay attached to physical locations. When arriving at a marked location, Geominder can play an alarm and display a stored text note or a voice note…”
• TPN :: The Edinburgh Fringe Show
  A daily podcast from the Fringe. Not listened yet, but if it’s in any way similar to that which it covers, it’ll be 99.6% shit.
• Gates Of Ades By Kate Owens on Flickr - Photo Sharing!
  My 1000th crappy telephone camera snap uploaded to Flickr! Huzzah!
