Commentary from UCS Linking to another blog which is something I don't do all that often, but there are two things I liked on this page. The first is Eric's commentary on the Internet lacking good content, and the blogs are one of the only good outlets available at the moment. The second is his idea for smart tags. Basically a function on browsers that goes through web pages when loaded and (using software like Google to search the web) load in links to the keywords on the page. Obviously everything wouldn't score an interesting page, but I think it would enhance surfing in a profound way. Also, since Google ranks its top hits with a "significance" score (see here for more), what sites words pull up would be in a state of flux and thus reflect the changing nature of the Internet. Sounded pretty cool.
