BBC: "United States President George W Bush has added to the drama of California's recall election by saying movie star Arnold Schwarzenegger would make a good governor." If you're interested in weblog APIs, please review the new MetaWeblog API spec. Today it moved from my test site to the XML-RPC site, replacing the spec from 2002 (which has been archived). It's important to review this for accuracy and completeness now, I'd like to finish this rev in a week or two. There haven't been any comments for quite some time, so perhaps we're almost done. After it's frozen, as you know, it will be too late. Steve Gillmor: "Clay Shirky is the Adlai Stevenson of Team RSS." Dan Gillmor on Microsoft's blogging software. "This strikes me as no threat to the current and upcoming end-user tools from the vendors we use today." Andrew Grumet has a philosophy of aggregators that matches mine. The three-pane "feed reader" is a disaster, it's merely recreating a mess I want to run away from. I like having a new queue every few hours. Adam Curry on a Dutch ISP using RSS for trouble tickets.

It turns out the Blogger API is two years old today too! All Things Considered: '"Theoretically, pages on the Web are governed by standards -- rules about how they are built, how computers read their instructions and display them." Dann Sheridan: "Since installing a new firewall on the home network last night, I haven't been able to publish to my site because my firewall thinks it is being attacked by Radio." Cone: "Limbaugh’s show prep no doubt includes weblogs." Oh geez, Notepad popups. Amit Dubey, via email: "After the Liberal Party Convention this November, Paul Martin will likely become Canada's next Prime Minister (some pollsters report he has the support of about 80% of the delegates). He also is a blogger." Zawodny: "Ever wanted to talk directly to the Yahoo! Search team in an open forum? Well, now you can." Four years ago today, a milestone piece on standards in instant messaging, in News.Com. How dorky is an application used by three people that hits one of my sites 10K times a day? Sometimes I wish the kids would just grow up. Or if that's not possible, at least leave home. Or if that's not possible, die. |
