InfoWorld: Massive Email Virus. "At risk are Microsoft Exchange Servers running Microsoft Outlook. With an ever-changing subject heading of "Important Message From [end-user name], the attachment to the e-mail is a document entitled "list.doc" with a body of text reading "Here is that document you asked for ... don't show anyone else ;-)." Upon opening the attachment, Microsoft Word 97 will ask if you want to disable the macros, to which you should reply yes, or the e-mail will automatically be sent to the first fifty names on each company mailing list." Much progress on My.UserLand.Com. You can now choose your news. Some interesting channels there. More are on the way? RSS is a good start at a syndication format. Grass roots and blades popping thru the earth. The good stuff. UserLand.Com membership required. Oooops! The RSS registration page was broken, but it should work now. Sorry for the inconvenience. SlashDot.UserLand.Com keeps right on rolllling along. One of the next items on my to-do list is to get it integrated with My.UserLand.Com. Do you see how the dots connect? Pun intended! One more dot. All this stuff is fodder for our Just-In-Time Search Engine. Can you spell portal? Can you smell one? Frontier Users: Brent posted the new Getting Started guide for review. Comments and suggestions requested. Thanks! Bernie DeKoven: Bottom-up Technography. "When we finished, we had a strategic plan that reflected and responded to everyone's thinking. We printed out the entire document, the strategies on the first level in bold, the tactical suggestions on the second level and the initial input on the third. We added three blank pages on the end, bound them, and had a signing and champaign party for the entire staff." Arnold Lesikar: The Boolean search extension extends the capability of the Userland search engine. In a search you can now specify words to be excluded as well as words to be required on a page. Other keywords can be optional. In short this extension makes the Userland search engine function more like one of the major Web search engines. A number of people have commented on a News.com article that appeared yesterday, about MSIE5 users who are unhappy with the new web accessory feature. Now the article is gone. This is unusual for News.com. Lawrence Lee found the article, syndicated on ABCNEWS.COM. Ooops? Wired: Yugoslav Net on the Brink. "As a result of recent NATO attacks on Yugoslavia, Eunet Yugoslavia is unable to provide its customers with payment services and customer support," says a notice on the site. "We hope that we will return to normal operation soon." AutoDesk: WHIP is the "Free viewer for drawings on any network." MacWEEK: Love for Newton Lingers. "This is a Newton," the recent Stanford graduate whispers, raising the machine as if he's offering it up to a higher power. "We are rabid fans."
