More aggregator stuff

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

Yes, there is now a Freeware News Aggregator Showdown Part 3- Morbus responds! page, where he responds to some of my observations about features that I felt Amphetadesk was lacking on. If the release version is as powerful as he claims, and he can get some 5-minute tweaking instructions written up, this is going to be an incredibly useful tool! I’m ready for it to be released and someone to point me in the right “tweaking” direction!

Hmm, now that I have a trilogy, should I make a prequel? Something like “Episode 1: The Hand-coded Headline Menace!” all about young Luke Webmaster and his fight to hand-code news headlines as fast as the stories get pushed out to him!

  • I hate that

    ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

    Don’t you hate when you spend an inordinate amount of time trying to figure out why you can’t delete a file out of a directory only to discover that you forgot to give yourself permission to do that when you created the directory to begin with? A simple fix, yes, but it really makes you…
