I was hermetically sealed in Atlanta, not so in Seattle. I have a room on Lake Washington with a view of the mountains, it's a sunny warm day here (still, although it's 10:15PM in the east). Time for dinner!  Lisa Williams: "Hey, TV Guide: it’s not a podcast unless it has RSS." 
Google: "My Search History lets you easily view and manage your search history from any computer."  UserLand: "This is a public beta site for reviewing and discussing features and documentation to be released with Manila 9.5."  Search Engine Watch: "Google has rolled out a seriously cool search history feature that automatically keeps track of all of your web searches and every page that you view from search results." 
I can't believe Bill Gates is being considered by the Discovery Channel as the "greatest American." A long time ago he took over other people's ideas (this was before software patents), and then once he cleared the field of all competition, went on permanent vacation. Just shows how much we're about perceptions, if he wins the award what they really mean is he's the greatest impersonation of a great American.   There's a Cleveland podcaster's meetup tonight.   Noon Pacific: Arrived safely in Seattle.   Wired: "If the newly elected pope wants his own website, he'll have to talk to Rogers Cadenhead first." Makes sense. 
We've had some kind of problem with changes.xml on weblogs.com. I've posted a note here, and will keep it updated as I find out more. Update: The change I made appears to have worked.   A must-read piece about Microsoft by Dare Obasanjo. Mini-Microsoft: "[There was] a reason for talented folks leaving in droves during the Internet boom: money. As folks left for start-ups, Microsofties would give them a cheery goodbye and (if they were good) say (once they were out of earshot), 'They'll be back.'" The weather in Redmond: 51 degrees and clear. I arrive mid-day. From the We-All-Can-Be-Popes Department Since we believe any one of eight million people who have weblogs could break the biggest story of our generation, what could be wrong with each of us leading our own major religion? Exactly. So in that spirit, in espirito doityourselfus, I proclaim myself Pope Dave Winer I. At your service! And by the power vested in me I hearby acknowledge your holiness, your eminence, your Popeness. It works for everyone, male or female, rich or poor, African, American, Asian, Australian and European. You want to be The Pope? You got it baby! 7/8/98: "The BusinessWeek article referred to me as President Winer." Via Lance Knobel: "They've elected Larry Summers as Pope."
