Blog Matchmaking

Seb's Open Research: matchmaking service
Seb says he can suggest blogs worth following based on a posting of interests mixed in with his experience and a dash of intuition. So here's my limited post of some limited interests; wouldn't want to give it all away.
Collaboration: Mostly of the asynchronous variety, of the sort we're supposed to be researching at Blue Oxen. Of late I'm becoming more and more interested in the political activism that may lie latent (intentional and unintentional) within "improvement activitivies" and "activity improvement".
Agile Methods: Patterns, extreme programming, unit testing, etc. are very appealing software development and design methods. I reckon the philosophical ideas that support it migth be good life development and design methods too.
Climbing: Not just a hobby and exercise: some degree of sanity maintenance with tangible, dirt-related, goals.
Books: 1920s short and long fiction always seems to tickle my fancy. I'm fairly certain that it has something to do with the underlying doubt ("Are we going to be okay or have we screwed the pooch?"). Same thing drives an interest in movies without happy endings.
Cognition, Augmentation, Craft: The Augury readings group from last summer fleshed out a lot of ideas and the connections between.
That should be a reasonable start.
