Cool, even before my new Italian Weblog (thanks Paolo!) was up, I was already getting coverage in Italy from Gaspar and Simplicissimus.  Thanks!  I am now publishing to two continents, simultaneously, using Radio.  Set up was very easy.  All I needed to do was create a new password, create a new category (John Robb's Italian Weblog), and drop an upstream driver (a 3 k text file supplied by Paolo via e-mail) into the folder for my new category on my desktop.  Simple.  Now I can publish to Italy and the US by clicking a single check box below my editing screen.  [John Robb's Radio Weblog]

This is huge step for weblogs. being able to shoot your entries onto local (national) servers will help to speed information as there will be less hops to get to the data, but at the same time all the servers stay in sync since everything is being updated all at once. While the idea is not new, the ease of doing so is, which is the killer part of this.
