Scripting News, the weblog started in 1997 that bootstrapped the blogging revolution.

Frontier News blog re-start Permanent link to this item in the archive.

I've started a new blog to document the root-level work I'm doing in the OPML Editor.

http://frontiernews.org/2009/12/28/welcome-to-the-frontier-news-blog/

In a way this is not a new blog at all. Frontier News is a very old name in our community. Before there was Scripting News, I had a blog that documented work we were doing in Frontier.

So in a sense this is the continuation of a thread that goes back to 1996 and before that, to the CompuServe forum and support we were doing on AppleLink starting in 1990.

Big wheel keep on turning! ;->
