Blogging in Doonesbury: via Boing Boing

RSS on the up: The debate (?) on RSS hots up. Lots of links to read etc. Start here or here and then just follow the links. Yesterday I installed NetNewsWire on my iBook at home and subscribed to quite a few weblogs. Nice little program that really puts the power of RSS on my desktop.

RSS inside corporations: The current surge in RSS is prompting me to think about how RSS can be introduced inside corporations and what advantages it may provide. Think about all the different applications that are used and imagine they could all provide RSS feeds. Then install an RSS aggregator on the desktop and bang! You could have the CRM system provide a feed of updated customer information, the SAP system could provide an RSS feed of overdue customer payments....and all that next to my weblog feed. Wow.

Telephone notes: Talked to Steven from Outerthought on the phone today. We chatted about the upcoming event and open source in general. He is surprised by the amount of interest the Cocoon get-together is generating. Should be a great event.
