Ahh comments!

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

Here are two examples of why I want people to read the site here and not in an RSS feed, because both of these came from other people in the comments! First off, Eric comes up with a suggestion for non Radio users to subscribe to RSS and XML feeds, it’s called NewzCrawler and it’s still a beta, (meaning free!) version. He also pointed me to a page where he’s used Radio to scrape this site and create his own XML feed of it. Hmm if everyone using Radio can do that, maybe I shouldn’t bother with creating my own? I wonder about that. I also wonder about whether all of these people pulling the information off this site instead of coming to the site is going to throw page hit counts all to heck too.

Well at least come back and comment once in awhile, ok? 🙂

Also, the other comment I found interesting was from our good friend at GeekBlog, who feels out of the loop as well while he’s unable to update his blog, but wanted to let us know that while he awaits approval to install his blogging tool of choice on the web server, he is writing over at the hacks page of his site. So go check him out there!

    Morten passed along this link, which is a place for you to validate your robots.txt file. He mentioned it to me because the robots.txt file I just put up on Monday had a typo in it. How embarrassing, but also how cool that it took less than 48 hours for someone to give me a…

  • Anti-virus built in to XP SP2?

    ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

    As Dana pointed out, this is an interesting article about Microsoft adding a built-in virus scanner to Windows XP SP2. I’m torn, obviously. On one hand, for all those home users who never seem to be able to use AV properly, maybe this isn’t such a bad thing. Although many still won’t remember to update…

  • Still unreachable

    This morning the site is still unreachable but I thought I’d go ahead and post the latest news items, so you all have something to read when it does come back. (And yes, a move that requires going on 30 hours now is totally unacceptable, not a good start for this new company!) New Version…

  • Get the Flock out

    ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

    I downloaded Flock, the “Social Browser”, last night and have been playing with it a bit to see how it works. In terms of being a “social” browser, it definitely is that, with the blogging, photo uploading, RSS feeds and other social network plug-ins incorporated directly in to the browser. On the other hand, I haven’t…

  • Oh I hate that

    ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

    I hate when I’m at the in-laws and I forget to change the outgoing server stuff for the email. Their SBC Yahoo dialup connection only lets you send email out through their server, and I spent soo freakin’ long trying to figure out why my email wouldn’t send from Outlook. Duh!
