Blogs and Business, a Smart Match A Good Read! [Dan Gillmor's eJournal] [Adam Curry: Adam Curry's Weblog] 'Journalists use weblogs to build and maintain an audience. Lawyers use them to discuss cases in the news. Educators use them to encourage class participation and offer resources to students.'

Welcome to Bloggenmoz!. This site was created to document my attempts to add support for the Blogger API directly to Mozilla Composer. What this means is that people should be able to post to their weblogs directly from the HTML editor that comes with Mozilla. I've started coding over the weekend and already have a functional prototype.

Dave spills the beans on 'the strategy." Hee hee, and the realization of it comes closer every day. Every new subscriber to my "channels" reminds me how smart I was back in 1994 not to take the measly $1.5 million David Cole and Steve Case (I met him briefly after the party) offered me for my company. On a side note, at the party Dave describes, I was in awe of the geeks, like Mr. Winer, while they in turn were tripping on my MTV-ness. Life is fucked up that way. I'm glad we met again, and again, until we really connected, which was ultimately through our mutual weblogs. [Adam Curry: Adam Curry's Weblog]

I think it's time I created a 'Media' category for this blog. A lot of the stuff I've been reading about and thinking about lately has been related to media and the huge changes that are upon us.

A very cool thing about Mozilla: if you are typing in a text box you can use 'undo'. Hey, it works in Omniweb as well. In fact Omniweb has a spellchecker too. ie has neither capability, both of which are very handy when posting in Radio. The one thing ie has which the others don't is full java script. This is a problem for me because I rely on RadioExpress! for some of my posting.

One other great thing about Mozilla is that if a page has the same or similar layout as the previous it loads so quickly you sometimes don't realize the page has changed.
