Maryland: 97
Kansas: 88
So it looks like IU will play Maryland in the final game. Maryland is so good I just can't see IU beating them. But I didn't think IU would beat Duke. And I was sure they would lose to Oklahoma. Who can say what will happen.

Unbelievable. IU is headed for the final game.

I've been so preoccupied with Radio Poster that I've neglected almost everything else. I haven't been posting as much to my weblog and I haven't been working on my REALbasic Developer article. So today is I will work on the article and just use Radio Poster so I can get a feel for what still needs work.

Jonathon Delacour has done something interesting on his site for the Burningbird entry in his blogroll. He's left it there but de-linked it. It's just there as text. That's a cool idea. I might do that as well as a tribute.

Radio Poster really needs a reset button on a message. It would clear everything in a message window and make it ready for a new post. That would integrate well with my future plans to save the message number with a message for later editing. You could turn a message window into a new message by hitting the reset button.

I'm here at home and Radio is at work. So I can't use Instant Outlining. That's the problem with it right now. It looks so cool but I can't participate. There really needs to be a client that can interact with it remotely.

When will the editorial people at the NY Times get it? Another astoundingly clueless piece about news on the Internet. If you want human-like understanding of news articles, look to humans, not software. [Scripting News]
I guess now that Dave has the New York Times streaming into his news aggregator he's finding out how clueless they are. Of course, his next post shows the New York Times gets some things right:
On the other hand, credit where credit is due. Thanks to the NY Times for the pointer to Daypop's aggregation of the top Amazon wish-list items by webloggers. Very interesting stuff. Very futuristic application of weblogs.

Burningbird has pulled her entire weblog. I miss it already. I'm not sure if that was really necessary. I can't think of anything she ever wrote that a potential employer would take exception to. In fact, her writings might help her find a job. But I never ready everything she wrote.
Burningbird usually started interesting discussions with what she wrote. Perhaps she'll start one now with what she isn't writing. I don't think I have written anything in my weblog that would be a problem if I suddenly had to look for a job. But that's because I am very careful about what I write. I sometimes think that being careful isn't really being honest. But I have a family and I can't just write anything I want. It wouldn't be fair to them.

I think that for version 1.0, however, I'm just going to add link and title and ship it. I want other people to give it a try. Roland Tanglao has already expressed a desire to try it out. Thanks.

I really need to add link and title to Radio Poster. I personally don't use them very much, but maybe if they were in Radio Poster I'd use them more often. Also, this morning I've been thinking about a whole different way to think about a post. Perhaps a window should be one post. Before you send you are creating a new post. After you send the post would get assigned the message number that get's returned by Radio. From that point on you can edit the post and if you send again then the post is sent using the editPost method instead of the newPost method. When you save the post the message number would be saved as well. Then you could save all of your old posts. That might be useful for other reasons. You could go back and edit your posts and you could even stream them to a different server. Perhaps I should even have a facility in Radio Poster that would get all of your old posts and save them to a folder.
