Check out the little blue button on the left: Joe Jennett has created a network of Radio weblogs. Want to see another Radio weblog? Just click on the green button. The “randomizer” will take you to another random weblog. Kinda cool.

Jumpstarting The Prairie Blogs Again BlogChalking is an interesting twist on the WiFi phenomenon: “blogChalking is a movement attempting to create a region-sensible blog-search system – descentralized, improvised (influencing existing Internet search engines) and world-wide. Truly cool and simple.” [via Daypop Top 40] [The Shifted Librarian]I see a couple problems with this system: Meta information like age…

Customer Relationship Management Software Rick writes: “Good interview with HBS professor Susan Fournier: ‘Customer relationship management (CRM) programs have become too much about the technology, not enough about the customer relationship.’” [tins ::: Rick Klau’s weblog]I agree (as if I know anything about CRM), but the technology, if it works right, is the engine that…
