About time. And product. And being more deliberate.
A while back, Dan Kuykenall downloaded my WP-iPodCatter plugin, mixed in a Flash mp3 player, some other bits and released the PodPress plugin. He and Mike Geoghegan talk about the PodPress project in a recent Behind the Mic conversation. Dan’s plugin is full-featured. Capital F – Full. Though he’s nicely solved a couple small problems …

Mr. Sponge’s More Debate post @ Minvolved is a good read. Looks like everyone’s at least consistent – for better or worse: Ember: I’m a woman, I’m not going to talk about my positions on Social Security and charter schools and I think of the children Paul: I’m ethical, I lean to the side, I …
“Some economists wonder why agents fight so hard to maintain this pricing system when it is making so few of them rich. In every housing boom, the number of new agents entering the market tracks the climb in home prices. As a result, the average agent sells far fewer homes and makes less money.” “If …

(image thanks to PFHyper) The FeedSeeder demo went pretty well tonight at MinneDemo. I’m pleased. Thanks to everyone there for letting me share it with you. Thanks to Luke & Dan pulling us together. If you weren’t able to catch it, I’ve added the most recent Quicktime screencast to Feedseeder.com (~60mb, ~7min). If you’ve already …
“…when it comes to choosing what I read and what is relevant to me, I’m only interested in opinions from people i know and trust.” – Shel Israel A while back, I re-grouped all the feeds in my aggregator – notably the ‘Everyone’ group contains authors that said something interesting once…but that I neither know …
The short write up on Fox’s House in the Fall TV Preview issue of Entertainment Weekly reports the producers are asking what happens if House doesn’t have his limp anymore. That’s easy. There’s no show. Poof. I said this a year ago on the subject: “House is a great character because of the contrast of …

“My advice to the game companies, Web 2.0 startups and others pushing to garner eyeballs so as to monetize their offerings with advertising: be careful and make sure you don’t interfere or take away from your core value proposition.” – Steve Borsch I suspect I’m not the only one that finds it ironic that calling …
I’m starting to load my 320 feeds and various groupings into FeedSeeder, the development version. Even with a good chunk of that to go, I can see how it’s changing my reading habits for the better. The interesting bits are unhiding themselves. This, before it’s even ready for public release and just nearly in time …
If I haven’t praised the beer buyer at St. Anthony Village Liquors before – well, it’s about time. I picked up a sixer of Affligem. A tasty, tasty Belgian Abbey Blond tracing it’s history back to 1074 (900 years older than me, that’s a beer!) and for the last half-dozen years been half-owned by Heineken. …
Fun-loving, happy-go-lucky Nick Carr points to TopRankBlog’sRSS Button Maker and declares it a problem with RSS. I’m assuming he’s commenting – not so much on RSS but – on aggregators trying their damnedest to co-opt RSS to their specific silo. That’s a little unfair of me considering 33 of the brands in the list are …
