rss2rdf Transformation I was playing with RSSOwl recently and saw what I thought were some problems in my rss feed for legacy farm. I cleaned up the date errors. Since the feed looked ugly in RSSOwl, I started to wonder about what the feed would look like if it was transformed into RSS 1.0. I eventually ended up at http://ideagraph.net/xmlns/ssr/modules.htm. I took the rss2rdf.xsl (courtesy of Sjoerd Visscher) and ran it on my feed. Using XSLT to transform the feed is pretty cool! I validated the new feed on the Redland RSS 1.0 Validator. It had a couple of errors: title, link, and dates. The validator complained about the missing required fields: title and link. The title field was there but it used the Dublin core. My date fields had a different format and were being extracted incorrectly. I modified the xsl file and I now have a valid and correct RSS V1.0(i.e. RDF) feed. It still doesn't look good in RSSOwl but it is less ugly. Oh well! You can see the final product at http://www.legacyfarmltd.com/rss1.xml.

Iwas trying to pay bills today and got a little distracted today with my T-Mobile bill. When I called T-Mobile to complain about roaming charges appearing on my bill, the representitive said that I did not have nationwide roaming. I knew I had signed up for it and had not been charged for roaming until recently. So I pulled out all of my T-Mobile bills and spread them accross the dining room table. My wife could see I was not happy so she did not bug me about the mess I had just created. After a little hunting I figured out the month they started charging me for roaming. When I called them back and pointed out the problem month, they apologized. They accidentally removed nationwide roaming when they added international roaming on my wife's phone. Oh well!
