Don't forget there's a new PDA version of Scripting News.  When accepting an offer to lead a discussion at a BloggerCon-style conference in the Deep South (Greensboro, NC; October 8), I responded, with tongue in cheek: "That's almost like asking the Boy Named Sue if he'd want to be reincarnated as a Boy Named Sue."  Today's song: "I made me a vow to the moon and stars, that I'd search the honky-tonks and bars, and kill that man that give me that awful name."  Tim Jarrett took notes at a recent speech by Google CEO Eric Schmidt.  Scoble: "When I subscribe to an RSS feed that means I want a long-term relationship."  Matt Haughey: "The first thought that came into my head after hearing The New York Times will be adding paid subscription walls to their content was that Dave Winer just totally sealed the win on his bet."  Steve Ballmer: "The hottest company right now -- the one nobody thinks can do any wrong -- may just be a one-hit wonder."  Iran Scan is an English-language blog covering the election in Iran.   Tod Maffin is looking for someone who can write a script to turn an OPML file into HTML. Piece of cake for someone who knows how to write an outline renderer in Frontier (or Radio). Which reminds me, I should do a generic release of Frontier so people can download something for free to run random scripts. The current minimal install is pretty frightening.  Thoughts on special feeds for bloggers, feed hosting services, podcast hosting services.  Picture taken from my desk while skyping with Kosso. 
I'm playing around today with a directory of podcasting directories. Nothing earth-shaking, just a couple of experiments.   It's official. Scripting News is now part of Blogger. (Just kidding. Hehe.) 
Doc Searls: "The Marriott Marquis has a central cylinder of new elevators that rise and fall like bubbles on the surface of a reactor core."  Cory Doctorow found a picture of a trailer suspended on a tower that looks like it was separated at birth from the windmill on my uncle's hippie commune here in Florida.  Wired: "Traditionally, bands toured cities and played dive bars to create buzz about their music. But with MySpace, bands can host demos of their songs, announce shows and connect with fans without spending weeks on the road."  The Podcast Outlaws Network is "a central place to find some of the brightest, funniest and most underrated Podcasts on the internet!"  Jupiter Research is now podcasting. You may have trouble getting to the site, but if you persist you will eventually get through.
