Great post by James Governor at RedMonk about something I’ve been thinking about for a while now — the idea that everyone’s Twitter feed is a unique view on the world, that you can’t always see every conversation that everyone else is having. He calls it “Asymmetric Follow,” which is as good a name as any. It has really different scaling characteristics than a lot of online communications we have, and is fascinating to me lately. (I’ve found myself following @reply threads of other people into various subcultures and piecing together relationships sometimes — of late those of The Daily Show writers, who are a little, um, quirky.)

categories v tags in WP?
anyone have good pointers on how to collapse tags & categories in WP? seems like the admin UI in 2.7 is emphasizing tags more, and it’s probably a better way to do things anyway — is there some way to combine the 2?

playing around with theme again
I’m playing around with my WordPress theme again — I really like the basics of this one (called Miniflex), but there are so many basic formatting problems I don’t think I can keep it. Any recommendations for similar style themes?

disqus v wordpress threaded comments (intensedebate)
anyone have an opinion on whether to use disqus for comments versus the embedded threading for comments built into wordpress 2.7? (the admin interface is *fantastic*, so far.)
update: i incorrectly assumed that intensedebate was baked into 2.7, since it was bought by WP a few months back — looks like that’s not true. so…that means i guess i have 3 options: Disqus (that I’m using now), WP 2.7 threaded, and IntenseDebate.

change.gov changed to Creative Commons license
In a fantastically great development, change.gov changed its license to a Creative Commons by Attribution license. It’s a really great thing to see, and an important detail to get right for an administration that’s so far both incredibly ambitious and incredibly overloaded with other important topics.
