Exclusive! "A seatbelt saved my life," says Scoble in a phone interview. His car is totaled, but he's OK. "I wasn't riding my bike," says former car owner. Craig Burton: "One of my biggest complaints about Groove has been its closed archtiecture." JD Lasica has a fantastic set of links to stories about weblogs. Archive.Org has a better copy of the 24 Hours site than I do. Nice. Adam Curry's MTV Chronicles site is #1 on Daypop. Doc: "So I guess it's good to be back." Yes! John Robb: "This is another great example of technology being used to improve the quality of airline safety without infringing much on personal privacy." News.Com: Patent holder eyes Web services players. French webloggers are having a dinner in Paris on Nov 22. Jean-Louis Gassee writes about L'iPod. ResearchBuzz covers the Weblogs.Com corner-turn, with a quote from Dan Chan, the developer of Daypop. Erin Clerico: "I don't think businesses and organizations need to filter their messages on the web through web designers to be effective. Web designers should play a role, as should scripters and server managers." To Kevin Gossett, we love designers. But designers shouldn't have to be copy editors. Nor should writers have to wait for them to make changes to their stories. Mike Krus is doing interesting stuff with changes.xml, and is producing a file that's compatible with it for his scraped RSS feeds. Essay: The 1986 Mets. Why should anyone care? Picking up where we left off last night -- you can probably count on one hand the number of people who use Opera to read MSN (not so true of SN though). Key point that the Times didn't get, to balance the piece --> MSN is not a monopoly. If they want to block people using Opera or Mozilla or whatever, why should anyone care? It would have been much more serious if MSIE couldn't read Yahoo or Google, or this site. Or if they were modifying the content of all the sites their browser reads. Why? Because MSIE is a monopoly. We admire and thank Opera, Mozilla, iCab et al for perseverence, and someday when MSIE doesn't have the Web by the throat we'll appreciate them even more. |
