The two things I announced at Web 2.0 Expo this morning (I don’t want to tell you how early I got up) were Possibly Related Posts and the Monotone theme. The latter should be available early next week. A few people covered the talk, including WebGuild, NextWeb, Mashable, and WebWare. Update: Here are some pictures from the talk.

I had the pleasure of chatting with Kara Swisher for a bit earlier in the week over oysters and cobb salad. Kara has posted a summary of our chat and a 5-minute video interview with different types of questions than I normally get.

There’s going to be a WordCamp in Vancouver on April 30th.

For those of you in San Francisco for the Web 2.0 Expo, I’m going to be speaking Friday in the main ballroom at 10:15 AM. Earlier that morning are Jonathan Schwartz, Dan Lyons, and Matt Cutts, all tough acts to follow. I’ll be doing a “High Order Bit” which means “short” and will be launching something.

You may notice in my comments now for people who don’t have an existing Gravatar I show cool geometric patterns. These are called Identicons and they were originally conceived by Don Park. With a single parameter, you can have the Gravatar API fall back to an identicon or even force it to return one. This works in any size Gravatar supports, up to 512 pixels. Sweet!
