      <![CDATA[<p>To wrap up what has been a busy week, yesterday I finally got some momentum
going in the blogosphere with the <a href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/002434.php">O'Reilly interview</a>. Thanks to <a
href="http://www.kottke.org/remainder/04/11/6958.html">Jason Kottke</a>, <a
href="http://radio.weblogs.com/0001011/2004/11/18.html#a8666">Robert Scoble</a>, <a
href="http://www.myelin.co.nz/post/2004/11/18/#200411181">Phil Pearson</a> (btw welcome
back Phil!), <a href="http://gonze.com/weblog/story/readwrite">Lucas Gonze</a> and <b>all
the others</b> who kindly linked to it.</p>

<p>What happened was, I published Part 1 of the interview first thing Monday morning (US
time). But it was slow to take off and by mid-week I was a bit concerned that no web
connectors would notice it. So I launched a <a
href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Band_Aid_%28band%29">Band Aid</a>-like appeal for
links and eventually some blog stars kindly donated their attention.</p>

<p>Wouldn't it be cool to have a regular "Blog Aid" thing, where A-Listers devoted
say 1 day a month to feed link-hungry C-Listers? It's the least they could do.</p>

<p>I'm joking!</p>

<p>Next week I will take it easy and blog in my pyjamas, as per <a
href="http://radio.weblogs.com/0001011/2004/11/18.html#a8666">Robert's suggestion</a> :-)
Just as well I'm not a videoblogger.</p>]]>
