A picture named redsox.jpgYossi Vardi will speak next Tuesday at Harvard Law School. 

Cristian Vidmar has a new Radio theme..  

Notes after a full day of discussion on myPublicFeeds.opml. 

A picture named sixtiesVavaThumb.jpgFascinating discussion about categorized feed lists, and how to preserve hierarchies across aggregators that understand hierarchy and those that don't. Great back and forth between Ethan Diamond of Oddpost and Brent Simmons of NetNewsWire. Finally, a discussion starts among aggregator developers. To me, the subject matter, while important, is nowhere near as important that a respectful and (no surprise here) intelligent conversation has started.  

Ethan Zuckerman: "I've been trying to find collections of blogs, both personal and newsy, from sub-Saharan Africa." 

Andrew Grumet: More Blogs Like This

Fast Company: Joe Trippi's Killer App

A discussion that shows how confusing RSS is to the unitiated. These are developers, imagine how confusing it must be for users. They do eventually figure it out, but man, what they had to go through.  

Python Community Server, a clone of Radio Community Server, now has a search engine.  

Q&A about myPublicFeeds.opml. 

Now I'd like to ask a question of aggregator developers. 

Excellent, Andrea doesn't mind that I scarfed her pic for yesterday's Scripting. I always thought it's an amazing picture, it was done by someone who knows how to use a camera and gets how pretty she is. She says she got a lot of hits.  

And, no surprise, Paolo's flow went up when he posted soft-porn pics of topless Italian babes. We've rediscovered the secret. Everyone likes a pretty girl.
