It's been a long time since I've written on my blog; longer than I'd like. I really want to get back in the swing of it, if only to keep this entire site from bitrotting interminably. My Alexa ranking has dropped to like >1M, which in my Web-addled state means that my personal worth has dropped, too. I know, I know.
Conference of the Americas: CancelledI was sorry to see that the Wikimedia Conference of the Americas, scheduled for mid-May, has been canceled. There was some controversy when this conference was announced last fall; it partly originated from a bid by the Atlanta Wikimedia community to host Wikimania.
I'm kind of sad to see that it's not going to happen. I like Atlanta a lot, and I think there is a really good case to be made for regional (or at least continental) Wikimedia conferences. I hope this isn't a nail in the coffin for such a regional event in North America.
On the flip side, it'd be really nice to see a more detailed explanation of what happened; of what future plans for the COTA are; and just generally a little more communication.

Elsewhere in wikidomThat all said, things are looking really cool for Wikimania over the next 12 months. I'm really glad to see that my South American home-away-from-home, Buenos Aires, won the chance to host the 2009 Wikimania event. With 2008's event in Alexandria, Egypt, I think we've got some seriously interesting ground to cover Wikimedia-wise.
Also of importance: if you haven't received an invite yet, get yourself over to RecentChangesCamp 2008. The wiki unconference will be happening for the first time in the Bay Area (California). We'll be meeting over May 9-11 in the offices of SocialText in Palo Alto.
I can't say enough good things about RecentChangesCamp. It has been instrumental in my understanding of wikis and my connection with the worldwide wiki community. If you are at all interested in wikis or related concepts, you should think hard about coming to this conference.

Brain bits- I think microrevie.ws is pretty cool. I got the 100th review today! Yay for me.
- Speaking of twitter stuff, I dig twittermap, but I don't always remember to update. IWBNI there was a portal to/from Fire Eagle.
