Radio now has the one-click functionality I was talking about. Cool.

Hey, I'm one of the 20 or 30.

Green horse.

I don't usually drink coffee, but messing around with Radio makes me think about have a steaming cup of coffee. Maybe with some mint.

Yeah, I'm an "old school" Frontier programmer.

Wouldn't that be cool? Looking at a site you want to subscribe to? Just drop a menu and pow! It's added to your aggregator.

Or, since system.verbs.apps.msExplorer.appInfo.sharedMenus is set to true, one would surmise that we could just add a shared menu to IE and do the whole thing in UserTalk.

Don't have enough time to work it out this morning. It's something like

tell application "Internet Explorer"
   set the_source to GetSource
end tell
-- parse out the XML link here
tell application "Radio UserlandTM"
   Do Script script_that_adds_XML_to_subscriptions
end tell

Wait...here's an approach: an Apple event gets the source of the current page from your browser. We run a regular expression to parse out the address of the XML from the XML button. Then we add it to Subscriptions. Cool!

Great job, everyone at Userland. Obviously a tremendous amount of work went into this. G'night, all.

Posts table is untarnished by metadata. Heh, heh.

But what if I want to make more than 99,999,999 posts? :)

I want a "subscribe to this site" button that automatically subscribes Radio to a site. Is there one?

'Twas more than 5 minutes til the first post...because I had to poke around in the .root files first.

Lookin' good, Martha.

Bursts of CPU activity.

I've never seen a purple cow.
