Puzzlepieces – July, 2005

Search Interface Protocols and Specifications - I haven’t actually read this (yet) but I’ve been thinking along these lines lately. To add to the list of protocols/specifications discussed, I would also mention Sherlock and Mycroft, the format used for Dave’s Quick Search Deskbar (examples), “quick searches” such as those used in Mozilla products and the virtually identical method used for the Google Deskbar, and the Yahoo! Search Web Services. And I’m sure there are others that I’m not aware of or can’t think of right now. Via Lorcan Dempsey.

I’m leaving tomorrow morning for Seattle and returning back to Waterloo Friday night. I can’t think of anyone I know online who lives there, but if I’m mistaken let me know and I’ll see if we can meet up.

Should be fun, it’s my first time there. I’ll probably take quite a few photos

Marc’s Voice: The GoingOn Network - what a coup for Marc. this may just be the first DLA (or social networking service) I actually use or recommend.

Danny Ayers, Raw Blog - I suppose posting this here isn’t likely to be much help, but thought I’d point out that Danny is looking for a job. Worth hiring.
