Al Hawkins: Andy Sylvester has built a directory for Radio Userland, so I used that along with Manila Newbies and Matt Neuberg's site to dig up the answers I needed to transition between the new enviroments. A lot more information than I really needed, but better too much data than too little.

Oliver Wrede: Frontier Developers Guild? Lot's of movement going on on the Scriptmeridian Community mailing-list. This list was dead for three years and I wondered where all the Frontier developers went. Now there are plans to ressurrect a developer community.

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. 2:56:25 AM Link
