events.stanford.edu is useful
Events at Stanford is actually cool. I was out of town for a couple days, came back and there were my Events at Stanford RSS feeds chock full of cool upcoming events that I really want to check out. Of course RSS feeds aren’t available to the public yet, but they’re awesome.

Tufts Portal
Courtney Young (previous E@S project manager at U. Comm.) says hi from Harvard.

The original formulation was “If you wait long enough, someone will write/build/design what you were thinking about.” But it is coming to mean “I describe a feature I think should exist in hopes that someone else will code it.”
PDA Concert Companion
Now you can get information about the concert you’re experiencing via a PDA. Scott, will the next Art Affair feature this technology? How could this generalize to events? What kind of metadata could you provide to add value to events? NPR : A Digital Companion for Concert Fans
I think it’s a great day when a news service with no reporters or editors or even fiction writers on its payroll can win a Webby award for Best News Service. Of course, it’s our friend Google News. This just further points out the fact that it’s those who make the information accessible who add […]
