MSDN Social Bookmarks going away :(

I suppose in the back of my mind I wondered how long that would last… I just noticed tonight there’s a banner that says it’s shutting down October 1.

Following the rule of not putting all your eggs into one basket… or at least a basket you don’t own, I’ve never stopped stuffing tagged links into my tag cloud at WynApse.com.

Every Silverlight link goes out on the @SilverlightNews twitter feed, and then gets posted in my SilverlightCream blog posts. Those links are aggregated and tagged multiple ways at SilverlightCream.com and you can use the search page to search by tag, partial subject, URL, author, or word(s) in the synopsis. There are currently 4106 articles in the SC database.

But at the same time those are posted, I’m also stuffing those and any other links I find interesting into a tagged aggregation that at the time of this writing contains 7058 articles tagged 9940 different ways using 418 unique tags. And the cloud is at the bottom of the blog roll page at the link given above.

So, if you want Silverlight info at the time I find it, follow @SilverlightNews. If you want to get it aggregated, read  my blog, or grab the RSS feed for it. But if you’re looking for anything else, you might want to take a look at that tag cloud – sort of my own version of the MSDN Social Bookmarks without the social, and I’ve been building the list longer—about 4 years now :)

Stay in the ‘Light!
