Announcing Weblogs.Com for RSS. The beginning of a bootstrap to improve the performance of the RSS network.  Keith Devens has a one-line PHP script that connects up with Weblogs.Com for RSS. The Christian Science Monitor now fully supports RSS. If you're using Radio's RSS Explorer tool, click here. BBC: "A government is saying to Google: 'we don't like that website -- so drop it from your database' and the company is acquiescing." Lance Knobel: "The IHT is a poor excuse for a newspaper." Phil Hewitt: Blogger XML-RPC Tools in VB. Robb Beal: "OSAF smells like an attempt to not have to do the hard work of competing on fundamentals like quality, experience, price, etc. similar to Apple's and Microsoft's software tieing." East Broadway Ron marched for peace in DC on Sat. As did Miguel de Icaza. Phillip Pearson started a blacklist for referer log spam. News.Com: "A new version of the Freenet software, a program based around wholly anonymous Net publishing and distribution, is due out Monday after long silence from its mostly volunteer developer community."  Now it's time to move on and get back to some semblance of normalcy. Football is easier. The Superbowl lasts a few hours, it's really intense, then it's over. The World Series takes a week-plus if it's a seven game series. There was a point when we thought the Giants had won, in the seventh inning of game six. But it wasn't meant to be. Like the Boston Red Sox in 1986, the Giants gave up the win, and then lost in the finale. For me, 2002 was the year when the Giants got me. Next year I'll be rooting for them. Now it's time to get on with other things. I'm sorry this wasn't the year, I wish we were celebrating a great victory right now, but we'll be okay. NY Times: Angels Defeat Giants and Win World Series. On this day in Y2K: "The Mets are amazing, fantastic, a team with a philosophy. Let's go Mets!" Amen. Bart Giamatti: "It is designed to break your heart." Mitch's design process  Mitch Kapor begins to talk about his design process. Mitch's process is something to behold. And it's hard to imagine it working over the Internet. But it's worth trying. Mitch is the ultimate notetaker, very thoughtful. He talks about having a master outline for his design. Now this is new, I've never heard Mitch say he wanted to use outlines. My ears perked up when I read that. I have a bunch of things to do this morning, but I want to comment on this some more, a little later today. Here's the October archive for the mail list Mitch talks about. Previously I had mindlessly clicked on the December archive and wondered where all the messages were. It turns out they were in October. Makes sense. Now why there's a December archive in October is another question.  |
