Jumpers

Hyperlinks are like jumpers and hoppers. They’re like pogo sticks that let you hop from place to place (or URI to URI). So, I thought I should have a unique name for my set of links that I do once a while. And, here they are:

Google Maps and APIs are powering rescue workers logistic teams in aiding Katrina’s victims. They have maps that can tell you the depth of flooding! Feedmarker has a way of bookmarking Google Maps.

Greg talks sensible about RSS security:

“We don’t need more protocols. We don’t need yet another encryption standard. We don’t need yet another authentication mechanism. Use what works today - it’s proven itself already.”

Editors weblog has a thoughtful post on how citizens initiatives replace newspapers initiatives.

Molly has a run down on how even some of the most popular search engines evade standards.

Dunstan checks out. The ubercool designer, well known for his panorama header that has more than which meets the eye, the co-designer of Odeo, says it’s time to say good bye to blogging.

Vint Cerf, the co-inventer of TCP/IP, joins Google. Google must be feeling on top of the world. They just adopted father of the internet.

Paul Graham on howto start a startup.

I just found a breathtaking panorama of the very awesome Millau bridge.

iPod nano gets my adrenalin pumping.

Seth Godin has a new eBook up for grabs. Free. Download away now.

LAMP doesn’t scale? You’ve got to be kidding me. How do you think Flickr is powered?

Get well soon, Nick.

    Adel: I wasn’t aware of it until I visited today :) (I haven’t been reading him much anyway, because the guy was too busy with Odeo. I was one of the beta testers, so I know.)

    The right moment? Wow! Congratulations and goodluck.
