People who can be relied upon to have good links

[conuly]

bridgetester has mainly computer-related links, and she puts the text into most (all?) of her entries.

griffen focuses a lot on equal rights, but his links are ever varied.

sclerotic_rings has many scientific articles.

sunnydale47 type out long, in-depth reviews of articles, with a lot of related links. She also has daily quotes. Very nifty.

trollprincess occasionally has articles. Really, though, I just read her for teh funneh.

And of course, let's not forget wispfox again. She's another varied-articles person.

I really need to get the stuff I have out of my file and onto my linkblog. I have so many good links just languishing...it's jsut easier to save them or post them to littlebits. posting to LJ is a pain.

[conuly]

Is it? How so?

[bridgetester.livejournal.com]

It's a pain if you're posting full text, but I've seen far too many dead links or pay-for-access archived articles...

[kibbles.livejournal.com]

Well, its not as easy as with Typepad's bookmarklet. If I see a good link for a story on littlebits or a link for the linkblog, I click on my bookmarklet and it automatically titles an entry and makes a link for me in the body.

LJ I have to open my client, write everything out, click on the create link thing, etc. It's just faster, plus with typepad I can put my stuff in categories so I can find them easier, later.

[conuly]

Why not use a different client? Or use the HTML to create a link, which is sure to be faster than clicking anything.

[kibbles.livejournal.com]

I think the other client is just as annoying. A bookmarklet is a wonderful thing.

And I have an HTML mental block. I need to keep written notes to look at. I have no idea why that is the case, I made my first web page in 96 or 97, you would think I would have the hang of it now.

I can't memorize things well at all -- when I played piano, it was a block to my ever going anywhere further than a hobby. I couldn't audition for any music programs, even small ones in liberal arts schools. I just have this memorization block when it comes to things like that.

[conuly]

You know there are *several* clients, right? Maybe one of them does what you want.

Poor you with your memory.

For OSX I think there are just two.

And yeah, I have a hard time with words as well -- things are always on the tip of my tongue. I have so much to say I just can't SAY it. I am hoping going back to school might help.

[bridgetester.livejournal.com]

I do science too! :P

And Conuly picks out the bestest ones, so I don't have to. :P
