Eric are you going to put online the slides from your keynote from atmedia?

Freedom to tag

As I’ve finally got this site up and running, I’ve been thinking about how I tag. I’m a promiscuous tagger. I try to be exhaustive in my efforts to describe that which is being tagged. I am both thorough and…

Where can I see your presentation using S5 online again? Or, don’t you have any idea for uploading the files on this site?

Doesn’t it illustrate an example of you photographing a meal? Forgive me if it was someone else who took the picture. Ah wait! It was Tantek wasn’t it? Sorry.

What about the picture of a dessert on a spiral plate that you use for the header?

Hi Eric!

Nice pics @ http://flickr.com/photos/tags/atmedia/. [...] A very accosting layout and a interesting discussion topic, do you provide any Web-based services to universities or students. [...]

Meri: sorry, nope. I looked at all the pictures on the main page of your site (and read a few descriptions) and I still don’t understand the compulsion. That’s okay; I have my own compulsions that few if any would understand.

Though I admit there was one time recently that I took a picture of someone else’s dinner, but that was because the chef had arranged the components to form a smiley face. That was worth capturing.

And do we really need to see what you ate for dinner each night? I say thee nay. (But then I totally don"t understand the impulse to habitually take pictures of one"s dinner, so maybe I"m a tad off base there.)

Eric, you evidently aren't eating well enough. Come and visit us and we'll give you plenty of reasons to take photos of your food.

Chris: that was a revision mangle. I originally wrote “a photo of me with Jon Hicks” and then cut out the wrong part when I edited it down. I’ve just now updated it to fix that mistake and a nearby silly typo. Thanks for drawing my attention to the error(s).

I've also seen people tagged with both their name and URL, so a photo of me might be tagged both "jonhicks" and "hickdesign".

Was this copied and pasted from Jon Hicks? Only here it seems like it should refer to tags like "ericmeyer" and "meyerweb" surely?

@media2006

Attended @media2006 in London last week and had a great time. Met some really nice people and made a bunch of new friends as well as talked to some very approachable giants in the field….

[...] The conference started with a keynote by Eric Meyer with his personal impressions of the last ten years of the web. Quite interesting since I’ve been reading his articles in WebTechniques, a great magazine and victim of the web 1.0 bubble, later on Webreview, where he published the CSS browser compatibility chart (depicted in the picture), a great companion in my struggle with the browsers back in the internet stone age.

“atmedia” tags on Flickr

In their write-ups of @Media 2006, Eric Meyer and Peter-Paul Koch have both spoken out to discourage the use of the “atmedia” tag to photos on Flickr which have no (apparent) relevance to the event itself. Personally, I’m with Russ Weakley in the op…

Oh and another thing, a tip for @media geeks, if you want your atmedia photos in a bunch, put them in a set… including your Big Ben and dinner photos.
