The answer to Pierro Marie’s question: Salut mark - where can i get some nice theme ?.

New SNS named ublip focused on location based services - sent to me by someone named Nick Palmby.
Live Clipboard and WebCards - Sam Sethi is starting to act like he gets in. Any more posts like this and he’ll be dubbed an official nerd groupie.
Paul Dube pinged me from yet another SNS for ‘professionals’. It’s called Fast Pitch. I just wanna know where the networks are for amateurs! They’re the ones who love what they’re doing - as opposed to getting paid for what you’re doing. I defer to amateurs 99 days out of a 100. Except when it comes to contributing source code for critical path projects.
When Phil Windley was chatting about Social Networking Without a Safety Net, notice that he didn’t once challenge or worry about WHERE his identity info was stored. Nor does Phil challenge Jeff Jarvis’ correct assumptions of individuals who wish “to pull together our distributed identities and help us manage them and make the connections we want to make.” What Phil is correctly focused on is: “giving folks XRI granular level control over their ID domain” This goes back to the issue that Mary Hodder raised: “which ID broker do we support?” We’re (BBM) thinking of becoming an ID broker - as it makes sense that each of our clients would want to be issuing OpenID IDs - based upon THEIR domain. That’s where the true lock-in will form around. The domain of your ID. So why support i-names or MyOpenID - when you can support the ACLU, Sacramento Kings or your favorite book publisher?
