evhead: The Brazilian wave. "I know I'm not alone in this, but I'm fascinated by a trend that has been going on for about a year and shows no signs of stopping: Brazilians are dominating social software networks," Haughey writes. It's true. In fact, even though there is blogger.com.br, we still have tons of Brazilians on blogger.com (granted, they now charge for blogger.com.br, but that was true before that).
huh. noticed mention of lots users from Brazil on Library Thing blog. weird? hey, Alfredo Matta my favorite Brazilian customer!

also in evhead Jul04: The best of both worlds?
Upon reading some of the comments abouut the new Blogger WYSIWYG editor, I'm prompted to point out one of its unique (and coolest) features, which I didn't mention yesterday, but which Chris talked about: It takes HTML. That is, if you type bold into your post, instead of using the keyboard shortcut or toolbar button, it will not be escaped, as would be the case with other editors. The word bold will be bold. (That means, to actually write out escaped code, as I did in that first sentence, you need to escape it yourself. But that's a much rarer occurence (at least for most people). cool. not escape from it (indirect obj) but escape-it (direct object). to think about: code of code. (of code of...) what is that? levels. of?
