This is a test post. I have linked this item to an enclosure from AdamCurryLand. I want to see what Radio UserLand will do with it.

IM and Weblogs

Sun, 26 Jan 2003 17:19:31 GMT

What's the connection between Instant Messaging and weblogs? If you have an idea, please post a comment here. We have IM support in Radio and Frontier, so if it's reasonably straightforward, it can be implemented. I believe there's already a way to post to your weblog through AIM or Jabber. I'm not a big IM user myself, maybe that's why not much has happened (that I know about) with the support that's built-in.

Internet-wide denial of service attack?

Sat, 25 Jan 2003 10:51:33 GMT

If you have any information about today's Internet-wide denial of service attack, please post a note here, preferably with a pointer to a web page that I can point to from Scripting News. Thanks.

Here's a page that ranks RSS feeds by the amount of new bits they deliver to Radio users, both today and over time. I haven't looked at that page in a long time. Surprised more people aren't getting news from the NY Times and BBC. Perhaps that's because they deliver their news in spurts at the end of the day. Each spurt per user only counts for one. You score higher if you deliver news steadily.

This is a test post. I'm about to release the new code that allows all kinds of fancy callbacks as RSS files are being written. This time I'm testing it with no callbacks to make sure it still works. This will be posted in both the main weblog and in the Michegas category. Back in a minute with pointers to the two RSS files. It all appears to have worked.

The two parts I'm releasing are: 1. radio.init (to create the initial tables for the callbacks in user.radio.callbacks) and 2. radio.weblog.writeRssFile, which is the core routine. Yesterday I released a new version of publishCategoryRss that sets a thread global containing the address of the category whose RSS is being generated. This enables Matt Mower to do some kind of magic in the application he's developing. That's good. Magic is good. ;->

I'm going to go ahead and release the two parts now.

Good morning and welcome to my mini-weblog for Harvard work. I expect this to be a short-lived thing. We're setting up a server at harvard.edu, right now this is a category on my test Radio weblog. The purpose is to have a look at Bryan Bell's theme. We will ask the design school at Harvard to do this eventually, but theme design is still only practiced by a few, and I've been working Bryan on themes for years and years. I love his work so much. He did the design on Scripting News, the XML-RPC site, and Frontier and Manila, and The Two-Way-Web -- these are all Bryan-designed sites. I write the words, the code, and design the formats and protocols. Bryan makes it look like a billion dollars. Thanks man, you do wonderful work. I love the Harvard theme. It's so dramatic, yet respectful. Right on.

Bryan has a new theme for Harvard. He says this is the one. The first time I will see it is when Radio renders the category after I hit Post & Publish.

This is a test post in the Michegas category. If all goes well, it should be written out in the RSS feed, and there should be a tralala element at the channel level with an address in it. Let's see if it works. Yes, ladies and gentlemen, it worked.
