Publish and Syndicate Your News to the Web. I have no idea what this has to do with the Government of Utah, but who cares? This is a great workshop showing readers how to "create, validate, parse, publish, and syndicate" and RSS channel. At times it gets a bit technical - as, for example, when it starts talking about RSS parsers. But don't worry, and don't think you need to master everything in this workshop in one go. You don't - once you've validated your channel take the week-end off, then go learn Java or something to prepare for the next bit. Seriously, I think that the workshop should really be divided between those who merely want to create RSS channels and those who want to aggregate - the latter is significantly more challenging.

Dave: Weblogs are like the word processor, for the web. We did blogs to open up writing for the web for everyone. How do I connect a word processor to a server -- that's what led me to do XML-RPC and SOAP, since it lets you do that. To me, they [blogs and web services] are the same thing. That web services are about big enterprise apps is not seeing the big picture. There's this whole other thing, called humanity, that they are not addressing.
