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. comment ()  10:29:34 AM  #   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. comment ()  9:56:09 AM  #   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. comment ()  9:22:46 AM  #   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. comment ()  9:18:51 AM  #
