Earlier today, around 4PM Pacific, we released code for Radio developers that creates a backup of all your weblog posts in RSS 2.0, as described on Monday. This will be the basis of no less than four key features: 1. Backup (of course). 2. Blog Browsers. 3. Interchange between blogging tools. 4. Synching between more than one Radio installation (or another blogging tool). We're going slowly, reviewing with the techies first, before releasing the user interface.

Re the name for the Reverse Cowgirl Blog TV show. I don't get it -- what's the show about. Is it what's on the blog? Then by all means call it a blog. How about a Wet Blog to distinguish it from the dry kind. You could always have a drink in your hand. Just an idea.

My iPod won't boot. Sad. This happened once before, and I held down all four keys at once to get it to restart. This time that isn't working. Helllp. Postscript: Matthew Gifford says: "Try holding down just the menu and play/pause buttons for about 10 seconds." Yup. That worked.

Today's song: "Now son, you've just fought one hell of a fight, and I know you hate me, and you've got the right, to kill me now, and I wouldn't blame you if you do. But you ought to thank me before I die, for the gravel in your guts and the spit in your eye, because I'm the son of a bitch that named you Sue."

We're in the zone now. The zone of one of two huge mega national holidays in the US. It's so weird this time I had no time to prepare. Tomorrow is Thanksgiving. Do I know where I'll be and what I'm doing. I don't. I could be flying to NY. In fact I probably will be. Either then or Friday. If I'm here I'll be eating a Togo's. Maybe a turkey Togo's. Gobble gobble.
