Reigning in your linkspam

Or, more specifically, how I decided to reign in mine.

Hyperlinks are the fundimental element of the World Wide Web. They’ve been in it from the start, and without them, well, it wouldn’t be a web, would it?

Keeping your finger on the pulse with Smashing Magazine

Smashing Magazine Logo

Smashing magazine (‘we smash you with the information, which will make your life easier. really.’) is one of those pseudo-blogs, regurgitating content from other sites as a method of generating traffic. Well, at least that’s what I assume. Behind the ads* there’s a wealth of decent resources, and it’s updated at a furious rate. For example, there seems to be 100 links+ in each of their ‘Best of Month‘ articles. (and with that many links, there’s gotta be something good)

They don’t obviously write all this content, but seem to read and research everything that’s going on through digg, digital web and the like, and then prepare and serve it up in healthy doses every week (or more).

Head on over there, read their past articles and sign up to their RSS. You’ll thank me later on.

* remind me to do a post on how to remove them sometime…

Here we go again…

You might have guessed that this is, once again, a work-in-progress site. As you’ve no-doubt noticed I just love starting new things, but this time I really do intend to finish it.

Honest.

Foxmarks

Foxmarks is a add-on for firefox, which syncronizes your bookmarks between computers. Soo, if you have your home computer and a work computer, for example, you can sync the bookmarks up automatically. Cool huh?

Well, where it could really come in useful would be in an office where everyone might want to have a common library of useful links in their web-browser. Anyone can add everything to a central sync server and bobs your uncle!
