memcached is a high-performance, distributed memory object caching system, generic in nature, but intended for use in speeding up dynamic web applications by alleviating database load.
Instead of stressing the database everytime, you can store objects with memcached and load them later from the cache.
Now, in your application, wherever you go to do a database query, first check the memcache. If the memcache returns an undefined object, then go to the database, get what you’re looking for, and put it in the memcache…
If you are using for example PHP, there is a special module which can handle accesses to memcached. See php.net/memcache.

JSON kannte ich noch gar nicht. Sollte man sich vielleicht mal anschauen:
JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) is a lightweight data-interchange format. It is easy for humans to read and write. It is easy for machines to parse and generate. It is based on a subset of the JavaScript Programming Language, Standard ECMA-262 3rd Edition – December 1999. JSON is a text format that is completely language independent but uses conventions that are familiar to programmers of the C-family of languages, including C, C++, C#, Java, JavaScript, Perl, Python, and many others. These properties make JSON an ideal data-interchange language.

Thinglink: Interessante Idee, aber ob sich sowas durchsetzt ist die Frage. Sind halt zur Zeit nur recht wenig “things” vertreten.
Thinglink is an open-source project to build a free product code for creative work that is not part of commercial identification schemes such as UPC (Universal Product Code) or ASIN (Amazon Identification Number). Thinglink is an open standard and service for anyone to use. We have especially created thinglinks for socially and historically meaningful artifacts, such as art, design, craft, and vintage objects that need unique identification on the web. Thinglinks can be used in any kinds of datasets and services, not only on thinglink.org. Thinglinks can be used as metadata or tags for pointing at physical objects on the web. Using thinglinks as tags on articles, blog posts, photos or videos make it possible to 1) aggregate online discussion around particular objects, 2) track the history and transformation of objects, 3) socialize around particular objects on the web.

Just found iusethis.com, a nice site where you can vote which applications you use. At the moment only available for applications that run under Mac OS X, i think. But i like the idea, because i found some really cool apps i didn’t know before.
The whole concept is just like digg.com does it with bookmarks.

…NetNewsWire Lite als Newsreader bin ich jetzt zum Vienna gewechselt und muss sagen, dass das Teil mir um einiges besser gefällt. Wirklich mal einen Test wert.

Achso, was mir gerade noch einfällt. Ich hatte mich ja Ende 2006 mal wieder aufgerafft und bin zum Kongress des CCC nach Berlin geschlendert. War ganz interessant und hier gibt es u.a. die Videomitschnitte:

Ansonsten findet man unter http://events.ccc.de/congress/2006/Streams die anderen Quellen.

… neues Design und neue Motivation zu schreiben — hoffe ich doch. ;)
Nach einigen Monaten intensiver Pause habe ich mir gedacht, dass ich in nächster Zeit wieder mal für mein tolles Weblog hier in die Tasten hauen könnte. Und da man ja am besten in einer frischen, neuen Umgebung Ideen schöpfen kann, wurde auch gleich mal ein neues Theme über den semanticpool gezogen. Das feine K2.
Zudem hatte ich vor einiger Zeit auf “we make money not art“, das nette Gimmick “Snap Preview Anywhere” gesehen und natürlich gleich mal integriert. Jetzt gibt es zu jedem externen Link eine kleine Vorschau. Naja, braucht man zwar nicht unbedingt, sieht aber fein aus, denke ich. :)
