Sega is asking its customers (i.e. gamers) for opinions. Now I have left my number, but would they even call to abroad? 😉

Time will show – at least new fresh air in the poll community – now they call instead of making pop up windows to appear.

Heh. For a quarter of a second I seriously considered as a new kind of spam that does not get catched by filters. Are we going ahead a new kind of emal spam – polls?

The Thechnorati Newsletter is back:

It’s called “The Buzz Monitor” and will report about whatsoever regarding the Blogosphere.

They start with a few words about how they messed up the unsubscription process!

I seriously hope things will improve once Blogger in Beta is out of beta, because at the moment Technorati is on its wits’ end. They just send you “I don’t know” emails at the moment if you are reporting problems.

Which is weird, since other services work together with the Blogger Team to fix problems, Technorati seems to do nothing.
Examples of good teamwork can be found at the Blogger Buzz.

I have sent emails to David Sifry. A final reply is still pending.

I have added the ability to listen to (recent) blog posts thanks to Talkr which allows that for free.

I will also add a chicklet to my Feedsite. A chicklet is a button which links to the URL which can be used for any Podcast reader so you automatically can listen to my new posts once they are posted in a podcast. 🙂

My chicklet looks like this:

Yet another country on the list that blocks Skype: Jordan!
More about this can be read at this place.

Yes, Skype is a competitor to regular phone companies, but I don’t think blocking it is the right way. Switching off competitors is not correct at all!
