We announced LouderTweets recently, which are 140 character mini-reviews you can send to LouderVoice from Twitter without needing a LouderVoice account.
Last night we turned on LouderViesti which is the equivalent feature for the superb Jaiku. Jaiku is like Twitter but can do much much more. They are based in Finland and are adding great [...]

LouderVoice Twitter Mash-Up
June 13, 2007 – 12:53 pm
After a few late nights we’re now ready to let you send reviews from Twitter to LouderVoice. We’re calling them LouderTweets and they are 140 character mini-reviews you can send using Web, SMS or IM via Twitter to LouderVoice.
An important point is that you don’t have to be a LouderVoice member to send LouderTweets [...]

Wordpress Rich Text Editor Poll
March 27, 2007 – 10:04 am
The current version of the Wordpress Rich Text Editor causes us “some pain” due to its mangling of things like divs which we use in our microformats markup. We’re interested to know what percentage of Wordpress users (both wordpress.com and hosted wordpress.org) actually use it. Here’s a little PollDaddy poll to that end:
Microformats - empowering your markup for Web 2.0

Champing at the bit
March 5, 2007 – 10:53 am
The most important feature of LouderVoice (in fact its whole point) is the ability to publish structured reviews to your blog and for us to collect them too. This has not been enabled during Beta test yet and I know many of you are dying to test it out. I hope we can turn it [...]
Good stuff on structure in blogs
February 14, 2007 – 11:20 pm
John Breslin has done two fine posts on structure in blogs over at the IIA Blog. The first is basically about Structured Blogging (SB) and the second about semantic blogging. As many people know, the SB plug-ins for Wordpress and MT were released to a mainly positive response way back in Dec 2005. I made [...]

Firefox Operator Add-On for Microformats
December 16, 2006 – 11:51 am
A lovely new extension/addon for Firefox called Operator has just been announced over at Mozilla Labs. Its basic functionality is similar to Tails and Tails Export in that it detects microformats on web pages and allows you to do “stuff” with them but it looks like the author, Michael Kaply at IBM, has big plans [...]
