Atom

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

Blogger now has the option of publishing in Atom instead of RSS. But, they don’t give you the option to produce both an RSS and an ATOM feed, just one or the other. So, unless they do, or unless someone convinces me that ATOM is that much better than RSS, I won’t be having an ATOM feed on here. Just plain old RSS. 🙂

Update: The old blogger pro accounts let you choose between RSS and ATOM, the free accounts only allow ATOM feeds. I tried to create a feed for Angela’s blog but since it’s an ATOM feed, and my current aggregator doesn’t do ATOM yet, I have no idea if it actually works or not! Can anyone verify for me, and save me the trouble of downloading and installing a whole new app just to see if her feed works!

    Yes, we here in the US have the three day Memorial Day weekend coming up, and Angela and I have almost nothing at all planned. That rocks! I know she could use the mental vacation, (I had mine earlier this week in Cincy) and I could use some quality geek time. I downloaded the zip…

    Maybe it’s just me, but it seems like if you’re going to make a major media announcement about the new look of your homepage you should make something truly different. The new beta Yahoo page just moves things around. (Probably so that the banner ads show up mid-page instead of at the top where they…

    One of my co-workers is cleaning out his office this week. He’s leaving at the end of this month, and he’s been here longer than I have, so he’s finding stuff that I’m only vaguely aware of. The biggest surprise out of the group though is an old PowerBook 5300CS. The good news is, it…

    I hate it when there’s a conference room full of people, one of our folks is all ready to do a presentation using our website and suddenly, for no obvious reason, the network port in there just seems to die. Luckily I have a 100 foot Ethernet cable so I just ran the connection over…

    I noted last week that it seemed odd that the new definitions I was prompted to download were dated 4 days ago. I’ve been prompted to download 2 updates since then, so obviously, they are updating the def files often. However last night’s definitions were dated Feb. 15, 6 days from the date they were…

    The last post I made to the Child Abuse blog was made using the w.bloggar tool. It’s a nice little tool but there’s one big drawback to using it with Blogger Pro. There’s no title field on new posts? What’s up with that? Maybe the new, currently being beta-tested, version of blogger will fix that…
