Doc Searls' position on linkrot:
- Links are fundamental to writing and publishing on the Web.
- Writing for the Web without linking is like eating without digesting. It's literary bulemia.
- Disrespecting the links others have made to your work is irresponsible to their good intentions and disrespectful to your own authority as a source. It says fuck-you to the world and to your own ass.

Rob Bender asks, "A while ago I bought a copy of
Frontier: The Definitive Guide. How much of that material is still relevant to Radio?"
Actually, I think it's all still relevant. Sure it's pre-Manila, but the old stuff is still buried inside Radio. Well, most of it anyway. The important thing is this book will help you learn UserTalk and understand the object database. After that understanding the inner workings of
Radio is an amazing journey full of wonderful discoveries.
Besides, who can resist a book with a
Bison on the cover?
It's also available
online, thanks to
Matt Neuburg and the nice folks at
O'Reilly.
