Googled Teehee. So by a subtle change and the right posting I moved up to number 7 on the Google search "rss flight hang gliding". 12:45:20 PM

Hmm. Not in Google Well, checking Google out for "rss flight hang gliding" my Flyblog didn't come even close (and the Oz Report got several mentions on page 1). So here's a bit of cheating. See if it comes up now...   9:01:42 PM     Another HG Blog. Wow. At last, another HG blogger... http://wonderwinds.com/blog/index.php   8:54:11 PM     RSS readers? Introducing Aunt Tillie to RSS. This morning a story on RSS newsreaders appeared in the Personal Tech section of my local paper. The title was A simple program to 'refresh' the news; the byline was The Washington Post. I'm keenly interested in how the story of RSS is being told to Aunt Tillie, so I deconstructed this one with some care. ... [Jon's Radio] A rather nice way of telling others how to tell others about RSS, and with some useful links. Nicely done, Jon. 8:41:12 PM

OzBlog 8.038#09: RSS?. What is this RSS stuff? [The Oz Report] Well, maybe this will be fun. The OzBlog now appears complete and correctly displayed in my news aggregator. And continues to be...   9:08:13 AM

It's official - the OZ Report is a blog For the time being at least, a Radio Userland site too. That makes two of us... http://ozreport.com/toc.php?Ozv7n308.shtml#5   9:08:51 PM

To RSS or not to RSS My Radio Userland license comes up for renewal real soon. The software's been good, I think the site looks nice and I like the ease of posting. But the reality is that the RSS side is overkill - I don't think anyone is subscribed to my site. This is mainly because HG pilots have better things to do (flying) than browse their news readers. I rarely look at mine; and there aren't any other flying RSS blogs to my knowledge. (The OZ Report is a blog of sorts, but it's pushed rather than pulled.) So this blog is in fact "just" a web site. Do I really need RSS? (Basically, no) Do I need RadioUserland to host it? (Not if I don't need RSS) I think I'll go with it one more year and try and get my site hosted elsewhere. This doesn't mean blogs aren't useful or RSS a waste of time. But I can't see this being used in industry since it's too open, to personal, not groupware, not controlled. Groove would be way ahead, I guess. 3:16:39 PM

A comment I'd actually turned the comments feature off (it was getting a bit silly seeing all those "comments: 0" messages) when Dave Harrison actually put one in... So they're back on again.  10:09:26 PM

A conversation with Jean Paoli. Next week's issue of InfoWorld includes an article on the new XML capabilities of Office 11. While researching the story, I interviewed the architect of XML in Office 11, Microsoft's Jean Paoli, one of the primary co-creators of XML. Here are some of his remarks. [Full story at InfoWorld.com] ... [Jon's Radio] More on Office 11. Best try and make the most of it.   4:32:18 PM     XML for the rest of us. ... [Jon's Radio] Is what I would like. 4:31:24 PM
