MSN Spaces

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

I’ve been a little busy this morning, but not so much that I haven’t seen the buzz generated by the release of MSN Spaces, Microsoft’s new blogging service. I’ve been linking some early reaction to it on the linkblog, and Scoble’s got links to a number of reactions, as well as his own thoughts on it. From what I’ve seen and read, it seems like a pretty decent service for the beginner. It’s integrated with MSN Messenger and Hotmail, you can share pics and a list of your favorite music, you get the basic blog features like comments, you get a full post RSS feed, etc. If you’re a non-techie just looking to start a blog, it’s probably pretty cool, but if you like having your own domain, more than 10MB of storage, the ability to design your own page, or just like to tinker, it’s not going to be enough for you.

    Coming Tweetdeck App Update

    ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

    I’ve been saying for quite some time now that I couldn’t understand why some features of the desktop version of Tweetdeck weren’t being added to the iPhone app. (Mostly global filters.) Apparently, there was a reason for that. Tweetdeck was completely rewriting the iOS application. As much as I’m looking forward to seeing this new…

    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.

    It took two overtimes, a bunch of ugly offense, great defense, a few controversial calls, a 16 yard pass on 4th and 14 in the first overtime, and last ditch pass on 4th down from the OSU 1 by Miami in the second, but in the end the Ohio State Buckeyes pulled off the upset,…
