		<description><![CDATA[The annual geek popularity contest is underway as SXSW has opened up the voting in their SXSWi 2008 Panel Picker.
This year I was wise enough not to overcommit by proposing a panel myself, but I do have some horses in the race.  I&#8217;m presently working on the UT Austin &#8211; Portugal CoLab, a large [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Like last year, the SXSW Interactive panel schedule isn&#8217;t searchable and the panelist bios don&#8217;t link back to their panels.
I&#8217;ve addressed that by hacking together a searchable SXSW Interactive 2007 schedule.  It&#8217;s &#8220;searchable&#8221; in that it&#8217;s one big web page in which you can cmd-F/ctrl-F to your heart&#8217;s content.

And just for grins, I&#8217;ve added [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Blackboard, the horrendous courseware behemoth, has heard about this Web 2.0 stuff and decided the right response is to clone del.icio.us &#8212; as a closed system inside Blackboard!

I love the bit about how &#34;limiting access to Blackboard users&#34; is supposed to contribute to the goal of &#34;a new way to find educationally valuable resources&#34;.

		<description><![CDATA[Recently I&#8217;ve been toying with Twitter, a viciously addictive little social networking/microblogging application intended to work on mobile devices.  Twitter lets you post 143-character bursts of self-expression (where you&#8217;re going for lunch, what the cat ate for breakfast, what social networking app you&#8217;re moving to next) and broadcasts them to all your friends foolish [...]]]></description>

This map shows wireless sessions in proportion to &#8220;wireful&#8221; Internet terminal sessions at Austin Public Library branches.

		<description><![CDATA[Recently I&#8217;ve become a nearly daily Wikipedia user, and I have to say that I find the assertions of Wikipedia&#8217;s quality to be overstated.  Although I&#8217;ve rarely noticed outright errors, almost every article includes at least some examples of poor organization, unclear writing, major omissions, or obsessive attention to trivia.

The review is generally favorable, and a good intro to the topic for those of us who haven&#8217;t been following it, but it does offer a few interesting criticisms.
One is that the idea of technology-enabled niche [...]]]></description>
