Backend: Formats for Blog Browsers. "I'd like to tell you a story about how I tripped over what may turn out to be a very interesting common feature of weblog software." John Robb shares a key perspective. If we use new software to browse weblogs (see above), there will come a day when you won't need to render and upstream content to have it be publicly accessible and retain full control of it on your desktop. We will have routed around the Microsoft browser monopoly, and then a new round of innovation can start. Joshua Allen: "The spec was aimed at coders rather than purists, and several quality implementations appeared almost overnight. And it worked! And nobody died!" Stephanie Kesler: "For many of us, our first adult experience with the process of death occurs when one our parents dies. I know this sounds bizarre, but I think their experience of death is perhaps one of their last gifts to us." One of the reasons I like Halley so much is that she breaks the code about women for clueless men like me. Are there differences between the genders? Yes there are, of course. Juha Haataja: "It may be a singularly Finnish trait that when giving positive feedback we tend to insult the recipient a bit. This way the recipient feels that you didn't offer you encouragement only because you wanted to be polite." Last year on this day: "HTTP had to be graspable by a single mind, because it was designed by a single mind." |
