Re: [IxDA Discuss] IxD blog aggregator site - are you interested in contributing?

I actually like that idea.. rather than an aggregator, which doesn't help you filter, we could have a Design is Kinky or K10K type site for UX/IxD. A curated aggregator as it were... or is there already a site like this that i'm forgetting? On Tue, Feb 17, 2009 at 6:36 PM, J. Ambrose Little

I'd throw in a YES too and strongly dispute the waste of time proposition. Planet sites serve a variety of purposes for different audiences. Two of my favorites are:http://planet.socialmediaresearch.org/ http://planet.mozilla.org I would encourage folks submitting RSS to use a targeted category

The reason I voted waste of time is not hap-hazzard. It is based in my experience. I got way too much redundancy between my own feed agregation and by having feed aggregators out there. I get this still here and there, but often now I use the redundancy as a sorta ad hoc digg effect. But with

Hi IxDa people, Is anyone interested in the idea of adding their blog to a IxD community aggregator site, in the same vein as http://www.brightonnewmedia.org/ ? I've noticed many IxDA types have their own blogs, and write great articles - but they post infrequently, myself included. I know RSS

I recently joined IxDA, and i really like the discussions going on here. I personally like the way discussion has been structured on this website. Although my last post didnt get any comments, but i happen to think that the blogs would overshadow the discussion/one on one interactions taking place

Nikhil, I agree, the quality of the discussions on the IxDA mailing list are outstanding. Just to clarify, this site would not have any formal affiliation with IxDA. It will simply be a site somewhere else on the web where people can add their rss feeds to a 'river of news'. I thought it might

Hi Harry, Thanks for clarifying. In that case its a great idea. In my project blog http://www.itsme.it/ well as of now its kinda institutional, but we are trying to upgrade the website into a more interactive one, with a blog type forum to encourage developer communities and interaction design

Harry, I think your first instinct that RSS makes it a waste of time is on target. I live through Google Reader. What WOULD be interesting is vetting feeds and articles that I don't subscribe to. A digg for interaction design might be more interesting. ONe of the features I love in Google Reader

I think it can't hurt to provide another way to discover UX resources/blogs, so I added mine to the spreadsheet. ... In a similar vein, I registered and setup goodexperiencedesign.com not too long ago. Right now it's just one of my blogs for talking about good (or bad) experiences and, as much
