OPML Files
I have been looking at ways to make my People / Places links on the right dynamic and decided on putting it into a OPML file.
Weblogs by Tube Station
I came across another great example of the location-based nature of weblogs and webloggers today.
It is called London Bloggers Tube Map and allows you to track down bloggers by their nearest station.
Tube Rage
After spending Saterday going to Camden and having to do the usual bashing and bumping to actually leave the tube I thought this was a very good Haiku that I saw on Going Underground’s Blog
Let people out first
Not “charge through the doors first thing”!
Die, you bastards, die.
I took the bus home via Piccadilli and picked up a copy of Content Syndication using RSS instead of doing that again.
Open Guide to London
While searching for random things on Feedster I came across The Open Guide to London.
It is a wiki about London and by the looks of its Index Page it is getting along nicely. Some of the interesting nodes I found are:
They also provide all their pages in RDF and RSS formats.
London Peace Rally
There were a big peace rally today in London. Some people say 10 000 people showed I think it may have been more, these things are always on media black-out and the spin doctors are doing their best to downplay it.
As usual the London traffic cams were all “not available for operational reasons” so no-one could even watch it to get a good feel for the size of it.
The theme was maybe more one of hate directed at Blair than anti war protest but there were a good deal of anti Israel sentiment too due to the on-going occupation of Palestine.
I took some photos
UPDATE:
According to Sky the organisers says 100 000 people showed up, the police says 20 000. I guess that puts it around 50 000.
