Here are my weekly notes:
- Another year of the Fringe has come and gone. It was fun though!
- Twitter is getting serious about location. I’m excited for the changes. Jeff Jarvis wrote about the news: “The live web, the social web, and the geo web come together.”
- I finally picked up a book this weekend that I’ve been eyeing for a while: Jeb Brugmann’s Welcome to the Urban Revolution: How Cities Are Changing the World. Seems like my kinda book!
- From Hanselman: Top 10 Tips Working Developers Should Know about Windows 7. Also for developers: VB and C# enhancements in VS 2010.
- Techvibes has a new Community Manager for Edmonton: Doug van Spronsen. Welcome!
- This is pretty interesting: when serving financial news and information, Yahoo draws 17.5 times the traffic of Google.
- We’ve got a cause for Twestival Local in Edmonton – the Youth Emergency Shelter Society. Now we just need to find a venue!
