There is a new version of Zempt. It addresses some of my previous problems, like having the keywords, extended, excrept, etc. as configurable options. So if your using Windows and posting to a MovableType blog Zempt might be your thing.
Take Your TrackBacks and Dangle a negative piece on TrackBack.
In a nutshell, TrackBack was designed to provide a method of notification between websites: it is a method of person A saying to person B, "This is something you may be interested in." To do that, person A sends a TrackBack ping to person B.For those of you using Blosxom there is Writeback which does commenting and TrackBack.
Steal These Buttons! has a pretty good collection of buttons/badges like the ones adorned on fozbaca.org if you are intrested.
Well coolness someone is logging and annotating Gibson's Pattern Recognition. Now time for me to read the book.
w.bloggar a pretty good "rich" blogging client, spell checking included. It posts via the XML-RPC interface to MovableType that was added in version 1.2, so an upgrade is needed mithrandir.

DMartin.org - Forum which is a Blojsom templated up forum style. Probably equally doably in Blosxom as well. Like the idea, rather simple and elegant. On a related note for work I'm working on doing a CRMish thing with Blosxom, or an ASP/ASP.NET clone, and fileshares.
There is a new blog client Zepmt currently for Windows but the intention seems to be Linux and OS X. Kinda nice so far, still testing.
... the idea that blogging (or even posting to fora) represents the democratization of the mediated persona. Literally anyone can have one, now, or several. - William GibsonNow where is engel's persona?

Manufactured Serendipity
Honestly I really have no idea why I do this. Many of the reasons mentioned in Manufactured Serendipity could apply.
Serendipity is all about making fortunate discoveries by accident. You can't automate accidental discoveries, but you can manufacture the conditions in which such events are more likely to occur.First thought, how my blog has recently connected me to a deceased friend's relative. How the previous sentence was the second most emotionaly difficult thing I have wrote on this site, the first being the above mentioned post.

Dammit, wish I had a Mac just to play with iBlog. It appears to really do nothing new, except the .Mac tie in, but damm the screenshots make all the to be expeced in a blog desktop client so sexy looking.
Blogrouter a Mail to BloggerAPI router. Seems to be intended for Sidekick users but should work for anyone.
mod_blosxom module for Apache
The Apache module which builds the extremely lightweight Weblog environment.Cool! that is all I got to say about that.
Linux Journal Blog beta site, how intresting. Now if the rest of the Linux Journal staff would join Doc and aggregate it into a master mega blog.
Bliki, Wiki, Chiki, Reeky? A good point about how a Weblog like interface to a Wiki does a good job of inviting, though the bigger point is the culrural issue. Wikis, especially the big successful ones, are really about the community where Weblogs are usually about an individual. Regardless a Blog interface couldn't hurt.
Now this tthinking raises a thought, what if Slashdot was more Wiki like with it's comments?
Update: There already is a Wiki Slash Plugin, SlashWiki, Slash's Wiki Plugin the article. It would probably end up as a "First Post" with lots of intresting stuff in the changes.
An Internet way of self-knowledge, Yet Another Why Blog, but this one is good.
The discipline of logging every web-article you find interesting and spelling out your reaction takes the journal in a very different direction, because unlike the private life-events of a diary, every weblog-reader can share the exact same experience of reading the web-article, and so know exactly what you're reacting to.One for engel.
the dishonorable professions
Academia and the law often reward obfuscation as a way of making trivialities more impressive, and lies more credible.
But web-hypertext is useful to the degree that it resists obfuscation, instead laying out its insights as clearly as possible.
