Radio Wishlist - RSS Explorer 2.. RSS Explorer Beta is a Radio UserLand tool that opens RSS subscription lists from other people's web sites, shows them to you, checks if you are already subscribed to the same feeds, and  makes it subscribe to the found feeds. A classic case of navigating through a social information space. Well done! I want more. 6 more features. Look at the site associated with each feed. Check for its own mySubscriptions.opml file. If there, let me launch through that person's subscriptions. Add my own mySubscriptions.opml file to the list, so I can start crawling through the subscriptions of my trusted sources. Make it easy to type new mySubscription.opml urls into the page. Show when the mySubscriptions.opml file was last updated. A button to Subscribe to All. Check each of the feeds for last updated date, and show it. I may not want to subscribe to dead or stale sources. More great work from Dave's fevered brow.

Consumers as Producers in value creation process in web logs From Jon Udell's  via Scripting News Post "These are all simple examples of a publish/subscribe services architecture. As pub/sub and asynchronous messaging get baked into the Web services stack, things are going to get a whole lot more interesting." and this "The pub/sub idea was also woven deeply into Microsoft's HailStorm. The .Net My Services (now back-burnered, but not forgotten) are really just network-based data stores -- My Lists, My Categories, My Contacts. Each offers an XML-based API that supports registration for change alerts." He makes a great point however there is more going on with this stuff we call web logs. The pub/subscribe web log is a more effective information seeking strategy because we are publishing and subscribing densely linked articles contextually linked digital media knowledge space. The context is both social and knowledgeable allowing me to make much more sense about the space I am navigating. Don't underestimate the importance of the social aspect. We are authors and readers, producers and consumers of information, entertainment, and friendship for each other. These are just some of the secret of the unfolding Internet. 11:47:00 AM    comment []

I care, thanks for helping them solve this problem. It's been a couple weeks since I started getting rare random crashes of Groove Workspace on my machine. According to MoonlightGroove (moderator of Groove support forums) this is one of those problems that just would not happen in their lab. Having shipped 8 software products in my life I can relate to the pain support and development teams experience in trying to hunt down those kinds of problems. So I'm now installing patches, running Groove in debugger, sending call stacks and memory dumps to Groove Support and waiting catch that rare crash. The point is, if you care about a product - help its developers to help you. MoonlightGroove announced yesterday that the latest patch release 2.1b fixes some of the crashes. As an added bonus, I found activation code for Groove Professional Edition in my in-box this morning as a birthday gift from MoonlightGroove. What a wonderful surprise!

I will be a reader for Gilles' new category. But I will also continue reading your French because I paint beautiful pictures in my mind as I try to follow your contributions to our discussion. Gilles' English Corner. I just opened this new category of posts in English, as I said in the first description (who happen not to fit in the reserved space): to open a dialogue with those who just speak Italian, Spanish, Russian, Japanese, Portugese... and English. In fact, all those who don't understand French. Wich is, certainly, a magnificient language... that I love to write, sing and speak. I wish I could speak to everybody in my own language... it's so difficult to speak, at first. Some of my friends ( and some who are not) would say "The difficulty is not evident, seeing all the paper and screen you are blackening"... I persist and sign : it is difficult. It is a discipline you have to acquire and master, by practicing, often. To prove my point : what else would explain the minuscule part of the whole who are taking the pen or the keyboard and express their own part of the collective experience. I'm talking of a group of 300 community organisers in which I've been involved for 20-25 years... So, it's a bit harder and I'd ask for your comprehensive support : I'll probably be making some BIG mistakes from time to time. Please, don't forget me: correct me !
