Thanks for sharing this. I really need to do something like it. On your contents page, did you enter all…
Thank you Jenny for the link. Thank you Bruno and Lisa for the interesting connections which I had not thought…
Apologies on my comment: I meant the *left* brain is focused on dates, while the *right* on contexualization!

Categories for Sorting
I need categories. Not for neatly dissecting the world, but simply for sorting. Because unsorted lists require fast context-switching. That’s why I prefer Downes’s articles in a categorized list

Topic hierarchies and Sycophants
An interesting study identifies a type of academic homepages as sycophants, mainly because they link back to their departments. It is true that there are problems with these pages but IMO they are different.

How much work should the RSS aggregator do for me? Should it try to group the various feeds by some sort of context such as authors’ topics or tags, or by day, or by geographical location? No, just count and perhaps cache them.

Cost of tagging in post-search world

Categorized RSS Syndication of Uni Publications
Our university library is starting off into a new era of Open Access and RSS Syndication, categorized by Dewey. Here is the RSS-Link of the ten most recent self-archival publications, and if you have an aggregator similar like mine (see the 146 kB screenshot), you can sort them by DCC just clicking on the heading of the subject column. I think this is a pretty promising approach, which might soon combine both the capabilities of smart aggregator filters of the users and professional cataloguing by LIS staff.
