How is it that I'm learning about Klenginem, the Klingon Eminem impersonator, from the NY Times rather than my tweeps? http://www.nytimes.com/2009...
@sivavaid The hidden story here is that this move seriously hurts the SEO business. No more canonical search results or rankings.
@amandafrench @clioweb But how does an SEO sell "I'll get you to #1 for X" anymore? It was a clear goal before.
@sivavaid Your book is indeed about tension b/w Google's stated goal of optimized indexing of knowledge & mandate to optimize for shopping.
@thyry Wow! Congratulations!
@chrisblizzard @foundhistory Lehrer's declaration is at the end of this video segment: http://www.pbs.org/newshou...
Jim Lehrer's reading of his news principles on tonight's @newshour was heroic: "I am not in the entertainment business"
@smv1827 suzy smith. book out from harvard in feb 2010.
An elegant text/annotation web app I hadn't seen before (though only the Bible--for now?): http://www.youversion.com/ (via Read 2.0)
Love that my department has a faculty seminar to discuss new works by colleagues. With wine. Off to hear about history of funeral directors.
@foundhistory nice new avatar!
@brettbobley Thanks so much for thinking up the Challenge (it clearly catalyzed the field), and to NEH for the funding!
@ghbrett Just had the same thing. It was a floater. But get it checked soon. Other possibilities are rarer but bad if not caught right away
@triproftri hope I didn't steer you wrong.
@sleonchnm keep flying west! or east! keep it thursday! .... welcome back. hope you can get some rest.
@margiemcl thanks!
@karikraus thanks!
@jimsafley Thank you. Have a new idea for Monday morning meetings @chnm.
Excited about this update from @openlibrary, "taking it to the next level": http://tr.im/GzRI Redesign, FRBR, linked data, more
Even more reason to keep my monthly donation to @leolaporte for @TWiT: kudos to him for pegging his salary to donations: http://leoville.com/whats-t...
@rdhyee thanks!
Delighted that we (@chnm) received a grant w/ friends in Canada & UK as part of the Digging into Data Challenge! http://www.marketwire.com/press-r...
Our Digging into Data team ("Team Criminal Intent") includes @williamjturkel @TimHitchcock @GeoffRockwell @sgsinclair @stakats
@williamjturkel looking forward to it!
@BryanAlexander Nope. The Chrome extensions framework can't currently support it, not to mention the huge effort to rewrite it.
@egonwillighagen It doesn't even need to be modified; for personal storage you can bring your own using the prefs panel.
@OChslibrarian See http://www.zotero.org/support/ for training videos (see "screencasts)
Cloud storage for Zotero launches! Now you can get up to 10 GB to backup, sync, & share PDFs & other files: http://www.zotero.org/support...
Is it me or is that expensive? - Deepak Singh
Deepak: This is not normal personal cloud storage. Please see http://tr.im/Gstx on why this costs slightly more than other services. - Dan Cohen
Dan, I read that and am well aware of the challenges of high availability/high durability storage (I manage business development for Amazon EC2), hence the question, especially since you're using S3. Perhaps more information than you can share in public. Call it intellectual curiosity - Deepak Singh
Can't #zotero be modified to use other online storage places? Like #GSpace? - Egon Willighagen
Haven't tried it in ages, but when I last looked there was an option to specify the storage directory. Put that in Dropbox/ and you're done. Would give you backup and sync, if not share. - Neil Saunders
@Neil I do the same, straight into dropbox, job done - Frank
Not exactly the same thing, but my Papers library resides on dropbox - Deepak Singh
You've always been able to bring your own storage to Zotero, for free. There's a pref for that. This new storage, in addition to providing extra personal storage, provides real-time sync of files across groups, among other things. That means if you are in a science Zotero group with a thousand people, your 2 GB dataset will propagate to all of those people upon upload. When someone new joins the group, they'll get all the data too. As Deepak knows, those syncs are tricky and also use a lot of bandwidth. - Dan Cohen
Dan, thanks for the clarification. So this is more of a "advanced" feature and not targeted at personal repositories. This would be a really cool feature for companies. - Deepak Singh
Rob Townsend's jeremiad "Is There a Future for Journals in the Humanities?" has correct data but asks the wrong questions: http://www.historians.org/Perspec...
