Core i7 - previously referred to as Nehalem - requires new motherboards, coolers and memory. Its performance is compelling and means AMD is falling behind even further, but Intel is putting in some speed bumps that will impact overclocking enthusiasts.

Core i7 is coming, Core i7 is coming! We got our hands on four of the first X58-based motherboards you’re going to see come launch time from ASUS, Gigabyte, and MSI and took plenty of pictures for this sneak peek.

Hi folks, Eric here. I saw this great post on Wired a couple of days ago, and I have been thinking about it a lot. It’s a summary of an interview with Chris Alden, the CEO of Six Apart who make that awesome Movable Type platform, and host Typepad and Vox and are generally on the forefront of new technology. My first blogging platform was Movable Type, and after 6 years of hand-coding even the smallest of changes, I couldn’t believe how much better my relationship with the internet had suddenly become. But I digress…
I will start with my least favorite part of the interview. Kevin Maney claims to have met up with Chris “…over a Belgian Beer….” This made me thirsty and confused, as I had no idea which Belgian beer - they are all so different and I didn’t know which specific beer I should obsess over until the workday was done. Now I will have to sample many to make certain I have the mood just right. But again, I digress…
The general thrust of the interview is that the sputtering economy will lead to a surge in quality and quantity in the blogosphere. Bloggers will certainly start cranking up the quality scale in an effort to assert their personal brand - to show current employers what a smart person they are, and to help potential future employers become more comfortable with hiring them. Also, more undirected time will lead to more time spent creating blog posts (and tweets, and flicks, and bulletins, and shoutcasts, and what we like to call “interactions” etc.).
Seems like a pretty good bet, and after the recent uptick in the corporatization of blogs, I for one look forward to a new potential golden age of blogging (and interactioning).
Then, today, I saw this tremendously encouraging post by Steve Rubel on Micropersuasion (a BlogBurst member, btw). Steve is one of the true pioneers of blogging and was really instrumental (imho) in making sure the mainstream ‘got’ blogging and social media in general. Lately his posts have been a little bleak for me - RSS peaking, blogs may start restricting full feeds - but this post was a nice companion to the thoughts seeded by the other article. As you approach recreating your personal brand for a struggling economy, I think these tenets are non-assailable: Find your core genius, simplify, and be premium.
As for me, I am giving myself two additional pieces of advice. First I think I should focus on listening. My uncle Byron always used to say “you can learn more from listening than you can from talking” (also he said “before you write a book, you should erase one”)(also “it’s easier to apologize than to ask permission”). Second, I’m going to dust off that old homebrewing kit and make me some Belgian beers.

Hello from (mostly) sunny Central Texas, where we appear to have broken the back of summer while still maintaining perfectly reasonable temperatures.
I got an email from a Blogburst member recently that took me a bit by surprise. The blogger indicated that he felt like his blog had been ignored by Blogburst and that we had forgotten all about him. When I pulled the blog up I was pleasantly surprised to discover that, in fact, it was a very well regarded blog with a commendable amount of publisher interest. It generated one of those “huh? Are you serious?” kinds of moments until I realized something.
You really have no idea how things are going in Blogburst if you don’t log in every once in a while to check your reporting.
Not to be hideously self-referential, but our Blogger Resource Center does have information on checking out your reports.  This alone will let you know what kind of publisher love you’re getting. Be sure to change the timescales on the right-hand side of the report to get the bigger picture - the “last 7 days” is the default setting but it isn’t the whole enchilada.
The other side of this coin is, well, “what if I’m not getting the publisher attention I used to get?” Yes, this does happen, but mainly it has to do with the news cycle, and your particular blogging topic area. It should be fairly predictable that the finance bloggers are having a field day right about now, as are the political bloggers. If you have a blog about (and I’m making this up, I don’t have anyone in mind) the wonderfulness of high-end SUVs, it is entirely possible that there is a decreased level of interest right now.
Keep in mind that the mainstream media in particular has a track record of focusing on one thing at a time, and you’ll see that they tend to switch to (and cycle through) topics based on the topical strength (or staleness) of a topic area. Chances are, you’ll get your turn in spades - and go through periods of decreased interest as well. Don’t let that change your commitment to topic areas that you find interesting though.
Finally, the best advice I can give regarding keeping publisher interest is this: blog regularly. The editors here really do know who they can count on when the publishers get hungry for a topic, and if you are a reliable source of information, you’ll be at the top of the heap when the news cycle casts its gaze into your area of expertise.
