There is truly nothing better in sports that being at the Duke Indoor Stadium and watching a Duke basketball game. Tonight the boys in blue played great, beat Maryland by 21, and looked like they could win it all, i.e. the Final Four.

Watching a Duke game on T-V is fine, but being there is a much, much better idea .  Last year I took three guys from the frozen north, and they loved every minute of it.

As one of my friends once said, it is the only place in the world where the entire crowd is choreographed.

Another truly great idea….

The ActiveWords odyssey has taken me to a lot of places, and allowed me to meet some great people, including many of the people on this group.

One of the really fun things that I have been doing is reading a number of different Weblogs. The guys at UserLand, i.e. www.userland.com are really on to something with Radio 8.0. It allows you to create your own Weblog, and they will provide you both the software and the hosting for $39.95 per month.

I have created my own Weblog, which I am just starting to get the hang of, and plan to continue it for my personal pleasure and hopefully to improve both my writing style and my ability to share my ideas with anyone that wants to read it.

That said, and while I know that ActiveWords is about the best thing going in the software world, the guys are UserLand are great, Radio is wonderful, and I hope that everyone on this list will try it, and buy a copy to support not only an excellent idea but a great little company.

PS/ Robert Scoble of UserLand, i.e. http://radio.weblogs.com/0001011/categories/scobleizer/  and http://radio.weblogs.com/0001011/categories/windowsxp/  uses ActiveWords all the time.

Having downloaded 8.01, I am not sure if it is working right, but this part seems to be working. It seems as if Blogging is a real work in progress. But that said it is a better work than what was here before.
