>One of the biggest feature requests is that we do something similar for the XML feeds that Radio 8 users produce and read. As I was doing the bug review (heh) it hit me squarely in the middle of the forehead. If our XML files had the URL of a web bug you should ping when you've read the file, bing, there you are, we've got the feature everyone wants. [Scripting News] comments < 6:44:13 PM
>What's cool about this is that we don't have to wait for the browser vendors to do anything. It's my code doing the reading, so all we need to do is add a new element to our XML feeds. The politics in the syndication community will probably be the hardest part of the feature. I wanted to write this up before I forget. [Scripting News] comments < 6:44:04 PM

>Nicholas Riley has a Mac OS X script that adds the Radio menu to his Dock. Wow. Nice. And he uses one of the neatest tricks from 1997 to get you the software. [Scripting News]comments < 6:43:47 PM

>A lot of people are using pairs of Linksys WAP11 access points to link wired networks. Linksys and its retail partners keep dropping the price, which was over $200 last summer and is now available for just $135 from Amazon.com. Amazon is also running a free slower shipping promotion for orders $99 and higher (with some qualifications: mainland U.S. only, etc.) for which Linksys equipment qualifies. The Linksys WMP11, their fully integrated PCI card with Windows XP drivers, is just $99.95; it squeaks in over the free-shipping cutoff. [80211b News]comments < 6:43:19 PM

>Apple slams door on Windows themes. The Mac maker asks a Web site to stop offering for download two "desktop themes" that let computer owners customize the look of Windows XP so that it resembles the Mac OS X. [CNET News.com] comments < 6:42:39 PM
>Microsoft "flawed" code debate heats up. Security company Cigital seems unlikely to relent, but many experts agree with the software giant, saying that some security is better than none. [CNET News.com] comments < 6:42:29 PM
>Judge orders Microsoft to reveal code. A federal judge tells the software giant that it must disclose portions of the Windows source code, including XP and XP Embedded, to nine litigating states and the District of Columbia. [CNET News.com] comments < 6:42:16 PM
