Wait. Let me get this straight. In order to add a weblog to my "favorites" list, it has to have been updated in the last hour? What the.... What about a way to just add a weblog to my favorites? There must be a way. Undocumented, naturally. Sigh. 9:02:05 PM

Radio UI and me One of the problems I have with the Radio UI is that I haven't yet figured out the organizing principle behind it -- which means I tend to look for things in the wrong places. Or maybe I look for things in the right places, but that's not where they are! Anyway, I just found the "favorite weblogs" list (which does I know not what, but I'll get there). I think it's something I've been sort of looking for, but I'm not yet sure. 8:53:47 PM

Radio and RDF Tomorrow morning I present my proposal for a knowledge management and collaboration system based on Radio, Radio Community Server (RCS), and RDF (a Semantic Web technology). I think this has great potential. There are only a couple of key problems to solve, since Radio and RCS take care of everything else. The toughest problem is in the organizational behavior arena; how do you convince people to use blogging tools in a work environment? Years ago I was a consultant to large insurance companies, and some of what we did fell into the organizational behavior realm; it's not easy to get people to use new things, especially when you don't have the desire or ability to order them around. 8:26:42 PM
