I’m looking to write something original around once a week, but none of it will be family-ish stuff. It’ll mostly be about the business of software and technology with some politics and religion thrown in if/when I run out of other stuff to say.It’s All About Love movie download

At Least, I Thought I Agreed With Dave

After a somewhat discouraging series of posts

Revolutionary Road movie

last year between April and June, there’s kind of been a moratorium on commentary about the greater weblog/syndication world. I found that nothing productive really came out of it, and I wasn’t really invested enough to continue to post about the topic. I tried it, and it was interesting for a while, but I’ve moved on.

I still read Scripting News nearly every day and I still think Dave Winer is a bit of a nutjob a fair bit of the time. Sometimes I agree with him, but I rarely feel strongly about it when I do. Usually it’s about something run-of-the-mill or otherwise meaningless. Today, however, I found myself actually rooting for Dave, which, to be honest, felt a little, well, dirty (j/k).

As I write this, though, the inspiration for my short step out of character isn’t posted on the site any longer and appears to have been replaced by this bland little item. Apparently, Dave was semi-spurned by IDG, the organizer of the Syndicate conference for posting the details of his interactions with them regarding his finding a personal sponsor for his appearance. In particular, I’m betting they didn’t like the criticism he leveled after they told him he couldn’t have a personal sponsor. He had written a very honest, but fair response to their attempt to censor his weblog by threatening his ability to speak if he didn’t stop posting the details. He said, thanks, but no thanks.

Hey, I don’t agree with the guy very often, but I sure appreciated what appeared to be his stand on this issue. I hope he re-posts it soon.

UPDATE:

Looks like I spoke too soon (about his taking it down). He just moved it off the front page. It’s posted at the bottom of this entry at reallysimplesyndication.com.

UPDATE: The Terminators dvdrip

BTW, the moratorium is back on. Also, Dave is back to being his good ol’ nutty self again today.

Post-By-Mail Wrapping Test

This is simply a test message to test the hack I added wp-mail.php to address the unnecessary hard text-wrapping that it does to things posted by e-mail. It’s pretty lame that I’ve got to do this, but oh well.

It should, however, maintain paragraphs correctly, so I’ve protected that function.

Here goes nothing!

UPDATE:

Woohoo! Got it working now. I should now be able to post from my e-mail without any stupid wrapping issues.

Yet Another Test Message

This is yet another test of the mail functionality. I’m trying to implement category functionality. Hopefully this works. I’m sick of all of my posts ending up in “Uncategorized”.

UPDATE:

So I’ve got categories working now. The problem is, when I post via e-mail it’s hard-wrapping lines un-necessarily, which makes the posts look funny on the website. Now I’ve got to go in and fix that.

Speaking of the WordPress post-by-email support (see yesterday’s post), this is apparently an area of WordPress that is fertile ground for enhancement. Currently (I’m using WP 1.5 beta nightly builds), there doesn’t appear to be any support for multiple or per-post categories. All items submitted via e-mail are assigned the administrator as an author. Author could be determined by looking at the e-mail address in the from box. If the e-mail matches a current user, publish it. If not, put it in “draft” mode. Author could also be set in the body/subject of the message.

Also, the submission is completely un-authenticated. It would seem like it should be possible to incorporate some sort of public/private key encryption (optionally) to allow people to add some security to the process.

Maybe if I just implemented these things and submitted a patch, they’d accept it. Or maybe not. It’s worth a shot.

Talk About Turnover!

As I watch the apparent disintegration of the RSS Advisory Board Dog Tags full download Push movie

(now down to Adam Curry and Rogers Cadenhead), frankly, I’m a little sad.

Despite his frequently distasteful style, Dave’s numerous tangible contributions to the syndication space have been enormous. It would be a shame for any of them to lose the momentum they currently enjoy. Hopefully, they’ll get the board vacancies filled by a group of people that are committed to the success and growth of the RSS 2.0 format.
