It's a shampoo world anyway

Entering Bliki

Maddin — Fri, 19 May 2006 14:55:48 GMT

Igor just finished revamping our NerdAlert webpage - nerdalert.de is know proudly run using a Bliki, a Frankenstein’s monster between a blog and a Wiki. I was sceptical at first because I could not see the advantages over the regular wiki we have used before. Man, was I wrong. I sold now. The Wikipedia as usual has the best explanation:

The main advantage of combining the two concepts, however, is in leveraging the utility of wikis at making connections between ideas; this effectively turns blog posts into proper wiki articles, but maintains the former's immediate nature. Thus, a bliki can evolve as a whole over time, and past information is not merely jettisoned into the aether and lost in the shuffle.

I think it is a perfect fit for our needs (documenting a monthly radio show and some additional activities). And the webpage looks sooooooo gorgeous now.

Remembering the rain: A show about What The Hack

Maddin — Tue, 16 Aug 2005 14:20:22 GMT

In tomorrow's NerdAlert we will talk about the wet four days of What The Hack. In particular we will rebroadcast a sort of "best of" of the shows we did for Subether Radio. Tune in for interviews with:

Andreas Bogk about the end of Unix and the operating system of the future
Sven Neuhaus about his cross site scripting scanner
Somebody from Plan 9 about their operating system
and some guys from Brasil about government sponsored free music (with "free" as in freedom - not in beer)

...and some singing nerds.

Na Na Na Nerd Alert
