But I refuse to close off comments completely; it runs dead against what blogs should do to foster community building. About 36 hours ago, I took the approach of renaming my mt-comments.cgi script. The new name was discovered by spam bots in less than 24 hours, so I doubt they are scarfing it from Google (regardless, for now, I am excluding all robots in the server robots.txt file, though I doubt the majority of bots even pay attention to that anymore). < From cogdogblog on May 11, 2004 at 4:50 p.m..


    Ideal Use of Internet Technology: Turning The Pages (yes, something not related to spam) I had seen and recommended before the British Library's Turning the Pages site, but was recently reminded of it in an email exchange. To me this is one of the prime examples of what the Internet can provide- a rich interactive experience with a resource that would not be readily available to most teachers and students. When I shared this site internally with my Maricopa faculty contact list, it was one of the resources I got the most excited and enthusiastic responses f From cogdogblog on May 11, 2004 at 4:50 p.m..

    Yahoo's Web Bugs: How to Opt Out A reader alerts me to Yahoo's use of Web Bugs, invisible files that let the company track a variety of behavior "inside and outside our network of web sites and in connection with Yahoo! products and services." Yahoo says no personally identifying information is collected, but since it knows who you are when you're doing email, that's a distinction without a difference, I think. Anyway, here's a page where you can opt out. Yahoo calls them "Web Beacons," a rhetorical trick. Note that you have From Dan Gillmor's eJournal on May 11, 2004 at 4:49 p.m..

    Is a Degree Still Worth Having? Questions are being raised about the usefulness of a university degree, at least according to a couple of new studies described in this BBC article (referred via elearnspace). In particular, the university degree is no longer the ticket to a better paying job that it once was, leaving students who take out large student loans looking at dim financial prospects. That said, the vast majority of students regarded the experience as positive, leading one to suspect that for many people (myself included) the purpose of a university education was not merely financial.

    The Great Blogger Relaunch Blogger has upgraded its software, probably the largest upgrade since Pyra launched the service. The new interface (I tried it out this afternoon) will feel familiar to Blogger users, and some of the new features - comments, syndication using the Atom format, enhanced templates, email blogging, personal profiles - will be well received. As major as this change is, it's still incremental; watch for more to come. The 'flyby' (link near the top of the page) is an interesting alternative to the text.

When the software was used on a word in a redacted 9-11 document, it reportedly reduced the number of possible words from over 1,500 to seven.
