Wow, this is cool.
The next release of Microsoft's OneNote will import OPML outlines. Very
good. Of course it should export them too. The old Microsoft would
never have done this, in fact there's an old Microsoft guy running
around the syndication community, he's one of the biggest advocates of
reinventing everything just for the sake of revinvention. It takes a
lot for a big company like Microsoft to adopt a format developed
outside, esp one not developed at another BigCo. Thanks for setting a
great example. Google, please pay attention to this. You lose nothing
by keeping the number of formats small, by building on other people's
work instead of undermining it, by not being evil. You already knew
that, at the top, but perhaps some of the new guys don't understand
what it means. It's in the company prospectus. So I hope you won't mind
if we hold you to a higher standard. I assume that's why it's there. [Scripting News]
