How I use the Radio News Aggregator I've got the preferences set so that each story comes up with a check mark. I look at a page of stories and uncheck those that I think I may want to post. Sometimes I hit 'delete' and go on to the next page, unchecking another group of stories I may want to post. When I've been all the way through, I'm left with a list of stories I can post and comment on. Other days, I'll 'post-as-I go.' Currently, I'm subscribed to 71 sources. I'm constantly weeding out the bottom 10% based upon how infrequently I've used them or how infrequently they have updated. Of the 71 sources, 23 are mainstream news sources and 48 are other weblogs. 11:22:48 AM     Comments[]

These articles are part of a dilemma we're in right now. We have a personal weblog. We'd like to set up a K-Log for our company. In fact, we'd like for the K-Log to become our company site.

IBM plans to lay off as many as 8,000 workers, or about 2.5% of its world-wide work force, during the current quarter. [Wall Street Journal] 9:59:53 AM     Comments[]
