More on Scoble’s aggregator blog

Looks like Kunal has come up with a solution for Robert’s aggregator blog that should keep everyone happy:

“His new version will post titles, and some text from the body, and post that. Only a small portion, though, not the entire text.”

That’s excellent, I was really worried that he would switch over to a typical “link-blog” which is not one of my favorite things in the world. Simply put, unless you have really descriptive links, I don’t have time to follow all the links on your link-blog to find the one or two that might be interesting to me. I’ve found that most people don’t put enough in the text of their links to help you decide whether the link is relevant to you. (Myself included, which is why I’ve really tried to not do posts with just a bunch of links and no real discussion of what will be found there.)

Looking forward to seeing it back in my aggregator!

    Yeah, it’s Weds. morning and I’m back at the office. Vacation’s over. 🙁 Lots of things to get caught up on before blogging gets back to normal. I’ve got about a week’s worth of tech newsletters to get through, a bunch of email to respond to, month-end reporting to do, and, of course, I’ve gotta…

    It’s Monday, it’s not even 10 o’clock in the morning and already I’ve got people whining and bitching. The best part, you set a database to do a certain thing, have it that way for years, get everyone used to it working that way, and then, after all this time, a VP decides that’s not…
