3. A related tool I enjoy is the Del.icio.us linkbacks bookmarklet at http://www.kokogiak.com/delicious_linkbacks.html It allows you to see who has tagged any page you're on, what they've tagged it and comments. For all I know I learned about that here on this site, I can't remember. Someday that'll be part of my attention data, right? Refering URLs for any site I visit. That would sure be a logical feature for any social bookmarking service. Furl.net offers it, but right now the data is very had to find.

Anyway, watch out for Livemarks. It makes my work a lot harder to do, as I just want to sit and watch it all night.

5. Marshall -- sweet! Thanks for that link, which incidentally also inspired me to reorganize my bookmarks bar. ;)

Aaron -- I just keep my third eye trained on it going on one of the auxiliary machines on my desk... :)

6. I meant to comment on this ages ago, but I've only just gotten around to it.

My question is: will we start seeing more live, browser-based news sites anytime soon? We've become used to consuming time-shifted media at our own pace in the form of RSS feeds (not to mention Tivo), but services like Memeorandum and Livemarks have proven that there's still a need to view up-to-the-minute news directly in your browser. What about a streaming news channel for the blogosphere, for instance?

7. Pete -- I certainly hope so. Memeorandum is one of the few services I can think of that deserves all the hype it's getting. This is another one I keep loaded up on an auxiliary machine so it can catch my eye with real-time news. I might kill for a Memeorandum ticker-like Dashboard widget... and I'm a pacifist. So yeah, the real-time aspect is good stuff and as you say, represents a new approach to web/tech/blogosphere news. I would looooove to see more of this and I imagine we probably will...
