Interesting discussion

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

In the comments for that last post we’ve been discussing the possibility of adding the comment link into the RSS feed item, so that you could click a link in your aggregator to leave a comment and skip the whole “Going to the site” thing.

Andrew first suggested it, and then he went and figured out how to do it in MT. Pretty impressive.

I played around with Blogger and while I could get an absolute link to the comments, I don’t think Blogger supports adding things inside the XML “item” tags. At least my efforts to move the comments link all wound up with it outside the tag and thus, not part of the feed.

    Whether it’s the thousands who follow my Child Abuse Survivor site on Twitter and Facebook, or just my cousins and I chatting about sports on my sports page, I’m getting something out of the effort by simply connecting with people who I might not otherwise have the chance to, and it’s those connections that make the effort worthwhile, even if I don’t have a million page views.

  • An update

    As a quick update to the post about Internet bottlenecks. Our networking folks spent a couple of weeks doing random traffic captures, both inside the firewall and having the ISP do it outside the firewall. Nothing really significant was found, no malware tying up bandwidth, no one streaming video all day long, nothing at all…

    Yes, it’s true. I was completely oblivious to the fact that my wife had turned what I thought was a small get-together with Andy and Kristen into a surprise early birthday party for me. I was, in fact, quite surprised to see a handful of friends already at the Clay Cafe when the 4 of…

    Some things to ponder over the weekend: Umm where are you priorities? this story of a man who grilled a kitten has hit the Daypop Top 40, with all of appropriate condemnations, including a letter-writing campaign. That’s all fine, but if that’s blogworthy, where are you people on the abduction, rape, and murder of a…

  • How Skype works

    ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

    I saw this post on Network World fusion about Skype and started following the links. It’s pretty interesting reading, especially Mark O’Neill’s post about using Skype behind a NAT firewall. I hadn’t really thought about the P2P aspects of Skype and how being behind a firewall that doesn’t allow incoming TCP or UDP connections could…
