FeedJournal: silly but fun

Via LifeHacker:

Web application FeedJournal turns your RSS feed(s) of choice into a newspaper-formatted PDF.

A little clunky and buggy when I tried it out, but I eventually generated this PDF from a few of my Google shared items. I’m not keen on the way articles are headed “by neilfws” - I didn’t write any of them!

What use is it? Not much - perhaps a nice way to generate a PDF for the next edition of Bio::Blogs.

OpenWetWare

This post from the OpenWetWare blog (discovered via Pedro’s shared items) has inspired me to sign up to OWW - should have done so much earlier. Here’s my user page and the beginnings of a wiki for our lab. Read the OWW mission statement if you’re not familiar with their goals.

I think the OWW site provides an excellent space for collaborative projects. Note to self: aim to set up at least one in the next couple of months or so.
