Does anyone know of a little program like this that I can wire to my blog? You bet I’d blog a whole lot more.
The Web We Lost
• Düsseldorf, Deutschland
Anil Dash turned his blog post on the web we lost1 into a talk at the Berkman Center at Harvard:
He posted a bunch of links on his blog that expand on the ideas put forth in his talk. Good stuff, all around.

GeoPlanet Data at the Internet Archive
• Cologne, Germany
Good news everybody! You can now download the GeoPlanet Data at the Internet Archive
Yahoo! used to have these wonderful location datasets called GeoPlanet Data / WoEID for download. At some point last year they decided to remove them from their page:
Yahoo! GeoPlanet helps bridge the gap between the real and virtual worlds by providing an open, permanent, and intelligent infrastructure for geo-referencing data on the Internet. The Geoplanet API provides a powerful tool to access WOEID’s and use them in your application. We are currently making the data non-downloadable while we determine a better way to surface the data as a part of the service. If you have a strong need for the data, please reach out to Yahoo! Geo Team . Make sure to pick Geoplanet as your area of interest.
Now they’re back, over at the Internet Archive. Gary Gale explains how that’s possible.
