Crimson: Harvard to House Blog Standards

Charles Cooper: "Instead of opting for a proprietary land grab, a company that was an RSS tools builder freely gave up its guardianship to a nonprofit trust." Thanks! 

Amazon is offering an RSS interface. Not sure how to find all the feeds. They have an example feed for top-selling DVDs.  

Jake: "We haven't been able to get Radio to register incoming TrackBack pings from a Movable Type site." 

The first confirmed presenter for the technology panel at BloggerCon is Susan Mernit.  

Scott Rosenberg: "The only thing I could reasonably predict, going into this project, was how thoroughly unpredictable the range of bloggers and blogging would be." 

Roger Benningfield: XML-RPC for Cold Fusion

Deane asks if readers should strip styling from RSS items. 

RFC: "Shall we run an experiment is to see if aggregators can work with RSS feeds that have a xmlns attribute at the top level, on the rss element?" 

Frank Paynter interviews the avuncular Uncle Rageboy. 

BBC: "A US music industry crackdown on internet music 'pirates' has sent subpoenas to allegedly unwitting parents and grandparents, court documents have shown." 

A possible performance boost for Manila servers. Not for the faint of heart.  

We had one of the best Thursday meetings ever. Quite a few newbies, so we spent much of the time with demos and Q&A, including text wrapping around pictures, permalinks, the difference between stories and newsitems. Chris Lydon and Bob Doyle explained how Blogradio works; Biz Stone was there from Wellesley, Wendy and I talked about BloggerCon. We talked about a cooperative cross-university site with case studies promoting weblog use in education. Lots of other good stuff. If you're in the Boston area, please come some Thursday. If you're an experienced geek or a total newbie, ages 9 to 90, it's fun for the whole family!
