Linking
Sort of Oracle OpenWorld related, though more about the work I put in for the Blogger Meetup series (
I,
II,
III,
IV,
V).
The really hard part about that series was trying to get all that information for all those people into one post. It took probably 5 hours (I would get distracted). Then I would try to script something, and get distracted again. Then I didn't like the way it was the same size as the rest of the text on the page. Anyway, it was a pain in the arse.
I also felt obligated to put that information in those posts. The last one I slacked on, but that could be forgiven, I guess, for putting everything both attendees and non-attendees on posts III and IV.
I really don't want to do that again.
So what is a fair alternative?
I thought it would be cool for everyone to have a home page, maybe like
Google Profile, but I haven't seen that many of those passed around via links.
Since most of this content is "business" related, perhaps LinkedIn would be the best choice (when just linking to a person and not a specific article). A person's twitter handle, blog and company information is usually indicated there; a one-stop shop.
I don't necessarily like the, sometimes, 4 links
Thoughts? (After spending a week with Jake, I am now repeating him, what can you do?)
