Instant outlining comes to RadioUserLand

Look at what Dave has done to me! My Radio weblog is sitting over here if you want to tune me in, and an explanation of the madness is over here.3/27/02; 1:25:43 AM by LMO This is pretty swanky. Swanky indeed. Instant messaging meets outlining. It seems that it’s [...]

XmlRpcFilteringPipes are alive in RadioUserLand

So.. What have I been working on? Well, XmlRpcFilteringPipes via RUPipeFilters in RadioUserLand. I’m soaking in it right now. So far, the text I’m writing will be piped through my local RadioUserLand instance, with filters on the built-in glossary and macro system. After that, I send my content out for [...]

Perceptible interface + laziness threshold = weblog silence

Haven’t managed to keep blogging here much, though I have been quite busy. Need to think how to make this space more interesting. Part of what has been holding me back is the interface. I’m used to the style of LiveJournal, where I have a little ubiquitous client that I pop open, jot some [...]

XML-RPC + Wiki + SVG = Nifty?

I think I need to look into SVG some more. It seems that these things might be interestingly combined:XmlRpcToWikiOPML to SVGTouchGraphWikiBrowserThe current graphical link browser above is a Java applet, but it seems that doing the same thing in SVG might be more interesting. One thing I don’t know about SVG is, can [...]

See wiki links and pages unfolding before your eyes

It’s really great to see them layed out in front of me, and to [...]

Why I have a blog on the front page of 0xDECAFBAD

I know everyone else in the world has blogged and linked to these, but: John C Dvorak slammed and trivialized this. Sam Ruby explains why I’ve got a weblog on this front page, and what I eventually hope it does for me as I make this place worth visiting.

Need to tweak up the volume

I need to get more active with the blog on this site. I’ve been kind of holding back due to lack of a few blogging tools I wanted to work within (ie. WeblogMulticaster for one, GroupWeblogWithRadioUserLand for another), but I really need to start making this place more worth visiting. So, if I can [...]

Move over BloggerAPI, now there’s something meatier

Yay! Today DaveWiner gave a shout out for this: RFC: ?MetaWeblog API. It’s exactly, precisely, what I wanted. Not perfect, but allowing arbitrary metadata, with a preference toward RSS attributes, is pretty much what I wanted. It’s basically what I was going to try to do in a hackish workaround [...]
