[EDIT]: All gone. Since the edit on the old post did not get any bites and the expiration date is coming closer, here goes again: I have two new coupon codes to give away. They come from Melanie. There is a coupon code for 20% off selected desktop and notebook purchases of $999 or more from Dell. Valid through 1/31/06. There is also a coupon for 20% off $200 or more on electronics & accessories. Before tax and shipping. Valid through 1/31/06. Please leave a comment if you would like one. Also, if you have coupon codes/discounts you would like to share with the community, just email me.

Brokering Big Blogs: How is that for an alliteration? If you have missed this peice of news, Jeremy over at Ensight is brokering the sale of a “big” blog that is within the Top 100 Top 200 blogs on the Internet. If nothing else, he is creating enough chatter about it. He is a blog marketer and he is doing what he does best, drawing attention to himself (and more power to him for being so good at doing that, remember the eBay blog sale?). Blogs, especially successful blogs, are quickly becoming sought after commodities that can make decent money for the seller thanks in part to Jeremy and others like him. However, I firmly believe that the author makes a blog and not the content or the network that the blog resides on. My initial thought was that Om Malik was going to be selling his blog (which does […]

Writely – The Web Word Processor: Though this app is trying to find a niche, I find little use for it outside of the corporate arena (reminds me of Exchange Public Folders on steroids). However, the remotely hosted nature might deter those corporate souls. This app will let you create/edit your word processing documents online while sharing it with a bunch of people. Neat features include simultaneous editing, MS Word/Open Office integeration, RSS feeds for public documents etc. The service is free.

Ask Lifehacker Reader: Best blogging webapps? My favorites include del.icio.us for remaindered links, Flickr for posting photos, and WordPress for posting overall. (The software that makes posting to Lifehacker feel like I’m sticking hot pins in my eyes, MovableType? Not so much.) 😛 What webapps would you nominate for the bloggies? I am interested in fringe apps that have not received much press.

Personal Learning Environment based on WPMU how WordPress (and more specifically WPMU) could form the basis of the next generation of Learning Management Systems as Personal Learning Environments. This has been a vision of mine for a long time and I had tried to incorporate this at the University of Toledo while I was there (managed halfway, Dr Ledgard still (re)uses some of my old piecemeal code). WPMU could easily become an extremely powerful learning tool, especially for exploratory courses that depend on the curiosity of the student to encourage innovation and learning.

JSCalc: Very cool javascript on demand calculator experiment. This would also be cool as a dictionary/thesaurus implementation.

Find Music You’ll Love – Pandora: If online music is your thing, I recently came upon the Music Genome Project and now Pandora. Tell them the name of a band that you like to listen to and listen to the streaming channel instantly created for you from their library. You can mark a song as a “like or dislike”, buy it for iTunes, from Amazon etc. A bunch of other features for Music lovers. I am quite impressed with the interface, with the features and the fact that it is still free, streams high quality music and still has no ads on their site. As usual, their blog gives a human face to the product. Very cool code! Now why can’t Y! Unlimited come up with something similar that can be accessed with little hassle? (I know they have something close to it, but nothing even remotely similar in usability).

WP Theme: Hemingway Two column, light on dark, optimized and very cool theme for WordPress. As seen on this screenshot the original theme was for Typo and ported over to WordPress. I like the simplicity, the positioning of the items on the page and I really like the neat and clean look.
