Show Yourself Widget
March 16, 2007 in Applications, Web by Carsten Pötter
Aggregation of users’ profiles on social media services is done by various sites these days. As a bonus those sites offer more additional services and features like OpenID’s, search,… Though if you want a quick and easy way to publicly display your accounts on your blog or MySpace have a look at Show Yourself.
Show Yourself is a widget that just does this; there are no other features. It seems to be a non-commercial product and it is supporting 25 services at the moment; add your user name or screen name and you’re done. Also you can decide if the images to the various networks are hosted by Show Yourself or on your own server which is probably the preferable option because you aren’t dependant on another server’s uptime.
It looks like this:

Update March 18: It’s update time once again. Dustin Bachrach has updated the Show Yourself widget. New services, Skype and AIM integration (see the image above), and the possibility to add every service you like. Looks really good.

Microformateers: Quick Microformats Support
October 25, 2009 in Microformats
Microformats are really cool. Small snippets of code that semantically describe various information included in any published text on the web. It’s not visible information for end-users but rather metadata that can be crawled and parsed by search engines or extracted by other means, like browser add-ons.
While microformats are rather simple – even I understand [...] -
Ma.gnolia Is Back
September 26, 2009 in Open Web
Some of the best things in life happen when you least expect them. Suddenly they are right here and you’re happy. That is especially true to things you loved dearly in the past but disappeared months before without warning. Like Ma.gnolia, the small but beautiful and elegant bookmarking service.
