A new tab on Scripting News
This is so recursive, I can't tell you how confused I am, I can only imagine how confused others are. But it works, so here goes.
- I just added a new tab to Scripting News, called Liveblog.
- It is based on the RSS feed for my liveblog.
- The liveblog, as its name suggests, is faster than Scripting News. It contains notes from my work, ideas that are too long for tweets, or that I want to come back to later.
- The liveblog is more casual than "Scripting News". Not sure what that says about Scripting News. I've always wanted it to be loose and friendly, but there you go. I am posting regularly to the liveblog now, so if you want to follow me, that should be on my home page too, it seems.
- Hopefully at some point there will be a "singularity" event where it all collapses down to one thing. But for now, all my feeds meet up on scripting.com.
- And yes, I plan to release the liveblog software. But it's a tricky bit, and I want to get it right before letting it out in the wild. It's can be hard to change software after it's released, and I'm still learning a lot about this.
- PS: It seems like today is a good day to take a screen shot of the Scripting News home page. Continuously updated since 1997.
- PPS: Thanks to my friend Hugh MacLeod for the excellent cartoon in the right margin of this post, from the early days of blogging.
