Jeff Cheney: Dave Winer

DaveNet Decade

Thu, 07 Oct 2004 21:42:33 GMT

Dave Winer: Ten years ago today I sent an email to the software industry, about a product that Marc Canter was rolling out. That was followed by a series of emails, many hundred of them. Most written by me, but some written in response. In 1997, the email flow spawned what I called a news site which eventually became known as a weblog, and then shortened to blog...

My Third Corporation

Thu, 05 Feb 2004 01:49:20 GMT

Dave Winer: I started my third corporation last week. The new company is called Scripting News, Inc. It owns Scripting News, and a few other websites, and some software I'm working on. It's a Massachusetts corporation. So I guess I'm going to be here for a while.

Meat Meet

Sat, 12 Jul 2003 00:42:36 GMT

Dave Winer: Let's do a Bay Area blogger's dinner at Jing Jing in Palo Alto Sunday 7PM? Am I crazy? Can it come together that quickly? I asked Gretchen Pirillo and she said she thinks she can come. I promise I won't talk about RSS. Maybe my darling Gnome Girl will come?

Mark Pilgrim Stalks Dave Winer

Fri, 11 Jul 2003 23:38:14 GMT

Don Park: Mark has a stalker bot that monitors Dave Winer's blog for changes every five minutes and list detected changes using color-coded difference report. Called Winer Watcher, it is an interesting experiment from an engineer's point of view, but I think it is stalking and suspect the motivations behind it...

Dave Winer: Silent in the recent michegas are the people who have been laboring over software and feeds and quietly working with people to create and use RSS. Imho, those are the people who should be setting the priorities, not engineers from other disciplines. I can't open a post for user and developer comments, because the usual people will take over. We're being controlled from the outside, that's the feeling I get, and it feels like crap...

Getting Personal

Thu, 05 Jun 2003 17:34:55 GMT

Joshua Allen: This is too bad. Lots of people seem to harbor deep resentment toward Dave Winer. Now, if you think Dave is a jerk (and I don't care so please don't comment), I have some advice...

UserLand Gets TrackBack

Hmm... Looks like Dave figured out how TrackBack works. Could that mean that Manila and Radio will soon support this feature?

This absolutely baffles me. Why isn't it a slide show?

Dave Sold His House

Wed, 05 Feb 2003 18:48:44 GMT

Dave Winer: Last night I signed a deal to sell my house. Later today I fly to NY. As I leave, I realize that I'm free to move where ever I want. Freedom is an awesome thing. It's not always so comfortable. I'll let you know. ";->"

Dave Winer: I'm meeting Scoble at the 2nd Avenue Deli at 4PM Eastern. Want to join us? Please do.

I wish I was there. I love the 2nd Avenue Deli! Just remember not to ask for a cheeseburger — it's not kosher...

The Ability to Astonish

Fri, 27 Dec 2002 01:41:07 GMT

Dave Winer: My father winked at me today. He has never done that before. Proving that he still has the ability to astonish.

The man is talking

Dave back in California

Sat, 23 Nov 2002 22:38:07 GMT

Dave Winer: Back in California. Tired, emotionally reamed. Lots of growth. Life will never be normal again, it seems.
[Scripting News]

I feel for you, Dave. Ironically I'm in a similar state of mind. Our circumstances are completely different, but they both involve unconditional love. Life is very strange...

Dave is OK

Mon, 18 Nov 2002 19:45:09 GMT

Dave Winer: Good morning, thanks for the messages of concern, everything is okay, just busy with other things today.

Whew!

Leon Winer

Mon, 04 Nov 2002 00:46:17 GMT

Dave Winer: On September 11, 2001, my dad was lost in midtown Manhattan, along with about 18 million other New Yorkers. I asked people to look out for him, I was genuinely worried. He was okay, he had quite an adventure, basically walking home from Manhattan to eastern Queens. Well, today, he's quite sick, in a hospital in NYC, not conscious. Once again I am genuinely worried. Last year I asked you all to pray for him, and today, as some wise Jewish person once said, "it couldn't hurt."

Eight Years of DaveNet

Mon, 07 Oct 2002 17:52:29 GMT

Dave Winer: Eight years ago on this day I wrote my first DaveNet essay. It would lead to all the things I do today on the Web, including this weblog, and the CMS in Frontier, Manila, and Radio UserLand. I wrote DaveNet retrospectives in 2001, 1999, 1997 and 1995.

The trouble with monsters

Thu, 19 Sep 2002 18:35:53 GMT

Dave Winer: The trouble with Jeff Barr and Bill Kearney continues.

This really bums me out. If Dave retires because he's tired of dealing with these guys, then no one will blame him, but there will be a lot of people very unhappy with them. I sincerely hope that they find more productive outlets for their energy.

The Future of RSS

Fri, 30 Aug 2002 12:40:37 GMT

Dave Winer: Heads-up. I'm doing my first post-surgery technical project, a merging of the RSS 0.91 spec with the 0.92 addenda, and documenting the new features in 0.94 and including a roadmap for evolution, all in one Web doc with a liberal copyright. Should have a draft ready later today.
