Whoops, a recent hard drive crash destroyed my Radio.root and wiped out my old templates. Just a matter of time I think, but the old HTML was pretty crufty, so I might make a fresh start. I spent the last week using Debian, and particularly a nice distro that boots of cd called Knoppix. It ran just fine on my HP laptop, autodetecting and configuring my cisco wireless. Very handy. For more, see the ZenOfKnoppix for more on the hdinstall for knoppix. Samba is set up, the new box has all of our mp3's, and I'm working on a jukebox system. 7:23:50 PM

So wouldn't it be cool to be able to navigate Radio daily archive pages via link rel=next|prev ? 2:19:38 PM

Blog titles as defacto-categories -> Extend the glossary item (in geek speek) to be a array of pointers, not a single one. Not quite a category, but a new rendering for a glossary could include a list format. Outline, hypertext style. 10:47:29 PM

I finally got frustrated enough with having all my pages titled the same and hacked up a html-title with last post title hacked in. It slows down the page a bit... but this site is no speed demon :) 8:14:12 PM

Ack! My aggregator.root had grown to 80mb when the file was corrupted.  I've lost my subscriptions, but all else appears ok.  Radio's error message were not very diagnostic alas. 8:38:35 AM

Playing with Aggregator API using http://www.vcdn.org/Public/XMLRPC/documentation.php Current status Houston, we have liftoff Caveats security restrictions? or vcXMLRCP issues prevent this from working in Mozilla (even from chrome) I had hoped for a cross browser solution will likely switch to Mozilla's xml-rpc implementation shortly security restrictions also prevent it from running on the web and accessing your aggregator Mozilla is going to be the way to go. aggregator.getRecentItems (numberOfItems, username, password) returns struct result = XMLRPC.call(displayNews, "http://www.oreillynet.com/meerkat/xml-rpc/server.php", "meerkat.getItems", oStruct); Blogger example on vcXMLRPC site useful Looks like security restrictions will kick in Thank goodness for the "keys to the kingdom" -- dammit, still need glossary expansion in the outliner Get the zip file to run on your local web server at ie.zip 11:52:48 AM
