He's lucky he only fainted. Imagine the headlines! .< 8:35:06 PM  >CBC News: Tobin quits politics, Chrétien to shuffle cabinet Cabinet shuffle on Tuesday morning. At a news conference in St. John's Tobin said he was leaving for "a new life with more time for family, for friends, for personal renewal." Bloody convenient. My hunch is Tobin will get a senate seat before ChrÈtien goes and now the boss man say his cabinet shuffle was due to Tobin's quiting and has nothing to do with Gagliani. .< 3:34:13 PM >A Cover for Steve Jobs, a Faux Pas for Time By flubbing an embargo and giving Web-happy night owls a premature glimpse of the new computer, timecanada.com broke Time's deal with Steven P. Jobs, Apple Computer's chief executive and ringmaster. By pulling down the article a few hours later, the site made it excruciatingly clear that there was indeed a deal.
The story jives with what I've been saying here. It's not a particularly big deal. If bin Laden had been captured the cover would have changed. What else would have been on the cover? This is sexy and it sells magazines. .< 3:23:14 PM >OK, what's the number one glaring hole in Radio 8 (aside from the bugs and glitches, which we're working on after spending much of the weekend overloading on excitement and sleeping)? It doesn't connect to Manila. It will. I'm working on a Tool that mirrors your posts to Manila sites. I have it working here. Now here's a heads-up to developers of other centralized blogging tools like Manila. We're using the Blogger API. That means it will also work with Blogger, naturally, and any other centralized blogging tool that supports the API.  [Scripting News]
This is great news. I was very excited about Radio 8 for OS X but just before it was availalbe I read that it was not supporting Manila. That was a problem for me because my Canuck page is on a Manila site. I've invested a bunch of time in it and I don't want to move everything, or start over, or run two sites. .< 11:39:21 AM >Korea migrates 120K civil servants to Linux desktop. Microsoft is big loser [The Register] .< 11:37:50 AM >Lastman handshake with an Angel sparks Quebec fury. Toronto Star Online Jan 14 2002 6:04AM ET [Canada news] Bozo Mel strikes again. Torontonians got what they deserved when they voted for him . . . or didn't vote against him (apathy in municipal elections). .< 11:34:28 AM >Its even worse in Canada. Guardian Unlimited Jan 14 2002 7:26AM ET [Canada news] They're talking about train travel as compared to that in Europe. Although there is some good info the hilarious thing is that they seem to completely miss the point that the distances to travel and the population density in Canada are rather different. .< 1:33:20 AM >Radio UserLand : Common errors Here are some common errors you may come across when getting started with Radio UserLand. .< 1:03:07 AM >SJ Mercury: The next big thing? Home media servers. A single electronic box called a ``home media server'' could, in the very near future, control every form of digital entertainment and information in your home. This year's Consumer Electronics Show, which ends its four-day run here Friday, turned into a kind of baby shower for the home media server... [Tomalak's Realm] .< 12:17:52 AM >IMac: What's in a Design, Anyway?. Like its chubby, friendly, candy-colored predecessors, the new iMac is making waves in the computer world because of its design. Clearly, it's better to look good than to 'think different.' Or is that all part of the same game? By Farhad Manjoo. [Wired News] |
