		<outline text="&lt;a href=&quot;http://slate.msn.com/default.aspx?id=2066854&quot;&gt;Mickey Kaus&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.instapundit.com/archives/001709.php#001709&quot;&gt;Glenn Reynolds&lt;/a&gt; (mostly) endorse my &lt;a href=&quot;http://scriptingnews.userland.com/backissues/2002/06/11#When:2:49:26PM&quot;&gt;plan&lt;/a&gt; for newspapers embracing weblogs. Kaus wonders why businesses should pay to associate with newspaper websites. Fair point. I really wanted to say that businesses that have nothing to say (advertising) that interests anyone should perhaps find another business. This is just a paraphrase of part of &lt;a href=&quot;http://doc.weblogs.com/&quot;&gt;Doc's&lt;/a&gt; philosophy that says that there is no demand for messages, which is why advertising is such a 20th Century concept. BTW, this is the third time around this loop. The first was just after the Davos Y2K meeting, in response to questions about how pubs can &lt;a href=&quot;http://davenet.userland.com/2000/02/04/howToMakeMoneyOnTheInternet&quot;&gt;make money&lt;/a&gt; on the Internet. The second &lt;a href=&quot;http://davenet.userland.com/2001/02/13/howToMakeMoneyOnTheInternetV20&quot;&gt;rendition&lt;/a&gt; came after the dotcom bust. Note to Kaus, UserLand, a software business, communicates through Scripting News, a weblog. (I'm the CEO.)"/>

		<outline text="&lt;a href=&quot;http://radio.outliners.com/directoryOutliner&quot;&gt;Today, an application&lt;/a&gt; for Radio's outliner that will be new for many. We've brought a feature from Manila into Radio Community Server, making it possible for people to create Yahoo-like directories that appear in their Radio weblogs. These directories can include other directories. They're built on an open format, OPML; which can be created in any compatible outliner, including Radio's outliner. Viewed another way, directories are hiearchic blogrolls. When you start getting hundreds of links in your blogroll, and start categorizing them, it's time to look for something richer, and that's where directories come in." created="Wed, 12 Jun 2002 13:28:25 GMT"/>

The first thing I thought of when I saw their &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.blogroots.com/resources.blog&quot;&gt;list&lt;/a&gt; of weblog management tools was &quot;I want &lt;i&gt;that&lt;/i&gt; as a directory.&quot;" created="Wed, 12 Jun 2002 16:22:29 GMT"/>
		<outline text="About the politics of directories. DMOZ scores points for &quot;open&quot; in comparison to Yahoo, but it is not decentralized. There's still a single owner of each category, and if that person wants to exclude something they can. This, emphatically, is not weblike. The directory I'm envisioning is one that's as open and chaotic as the Web itself. No one owns a category anymore than there is a single place to go for information on a single topic on the Web. We thrive on &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.userland.com/whatIsTriangulation&quot;&gt;triangulation&lt;/a&gt;, multiple ways to view each subject. Earlier this month I wrote a &lt;a href=&quot;http://davenet.userland.com/2002/06/02/theGooglishWayToDoDirectories&quot;&gt;piece&lt;/a&gt; about directories and Google. Perhaps it makes more sense in light of the technology we released today." created="Wed, 12 Jun 2002 16:25:32 GMT"/>
		<outline text="Now it gets more interesting. I asked &lt;a href=&quot;http://diveintomark.org/archives/2002/06/12.html&quot;&gt;Mark Pilgrim&lt;/a&gt; to create a &lt;a href=&quot;http://diveintomark.org/directories/weblog_neighborhood_implementations.opml&quot;&gt;list&lt;/a&gt; of weblog neighborhood implementations so I could include it in one of our directories to show that you don't have to use our outliner to participate in the decentralized directory of directories. &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.superopendirectory.com/directory/4/events/markPilgrimDoesOpml&quot;&gt;Here's the demo&lt;/a&gt;. I &lt;i&gt;included&lt;/i&gt; Mark's directory in mine. Then he sent two more lists and I included those too. Note that Mark's lists could have been hierarchies, nested as many levels deep as makes sense. Mark can edit his directories, and within one hour his changes will be reflected in mine. Suggested links go to Mark, not me -- because the directory environment knows that he's the author of his branches, not me. That's why OPML has information about the author." created="Wed, 12 Jun 2002 14:41:12 GMT"/>
