Something to Declare

2006-11-09

Aw, shame. The fuss on declarative living has died down somewhat… and I had this draft on Wordpress I was saving until I could get down to writing a really good article about it. Might as well post these thoughts now, perhaps something will come of it some time.

Consider it a declaration of intent ;)

Thoughts for a future post…

- Declarative living is about much more than uploading preferences

- Depends on roles - what persona is being declared - cf duping Google, duping Audioscrobbler

- Non-declaration is also a tool - publication of reader figures, punching more than one’s weight

- Pre-requisite to engagement is to declare interface

- Declaration, like service, goes all the way down

- Passive declaration by blogging, active declaration needs to be more than it is

- In future, declaration of capabilities to enable service interface

- Agreed that (anonymous) declarative mechanism could replace surveys, charts (Audioscrobbler)

- Dig out blogging is narcissism post
