Tav has some great ideas on 'fixing' Radio: "the mail-to-weblog feature is implemented the wrong way round imo. radio shouldn't be checking my email account and deleting messages from them."  11:53:15 PM  permalink   Add a comment   

Hey, I just found my house on Microsoft's Terraserver. Cool! It's an old picture, though. Everywhere you see forest on that picture is now full of new houses, each with a lot one quarter the size of mine. I like my neighbors, but I sure miss the trees.

A question for Dave: Is it possible to disable the secret subject requirement on my radio blog? Since It's checking my on a dedicated (and secret) email account anyway, I would like the added flexibility of having it post anything I sent to that address.

PS - How about a wildcard?  10:58:16 PM  permalink   Add a comment

This kicks so much ass:"These links take you directly to the "opt out" feature of the ad server listed. Clicking these links stop the advertising from that adserver"  9:26:03 PM  permalink   Add a comment   

Ugh. I just noticed that Radio isn't the most background friendly application. Just moments before I snapped this screenshot radio was sucking up 78% of my PowerBook's processor cycles.

Well, I just decided to buy Radio Userland. $40? Definetly worth it. I'm also going to buy a copy for my freind, Clare. She's using diaryland now. This will spin her for a loop.  8:16:09 PM  permalink   Add a comment
