FeedBurner’s Link Splicer
Posted on Saturday, July 2nd, 2005
People viewing my feed will be relieved as of today. I will no longer use the FeedBurner ‘Link Splice’ option, which added my Furl into the main sites webfeed. Why? I was getting fed up by the constant ‘there’s a new item’ notice in Bloglines and FeedDemon. Also, I don’t see an added value merging [...]

IE’s dead, hail the new King!
Posted on Saturday, June 25th, 2005
… and the new king is ‘Longhorn‘! Well, not exactly, it’s RSS! I’ve watched the video, scanned Technorati, clicked on TechCrunch, taken a look at the IE Blog, re-visited C|Net, shivered at the Creative Commons Blog, read the last Gnomedex’r story, … What’s left? I say, Redmond got the idea late in the game. But [...]

To Watch: Microsoft to Add Ordered List support in RSS?
Posted on Friday, June 24th, 2005
Microsoft has a history of inventing proprietary things. So when I found this announcement on C|Net I was a bit sceptical at first. What’s the deal? It appears Microsoft will announce an extension to RSS (2.0?) today at Gnomedex for a better support of ordered lists in feeditems. Big deal! Everybody is putting lists in [...]

Google Sitemaps is working
Posted on Tuesday, June 14th, 2005
As I’ve posted previously, I started ‘testing’ Google Sitemaps last week. So what have I done? I added my feeds first. They were there already so that didn’t take any effort. Next I added a plugin to my WordPress installation that would generate a sitemap automatically and added that one also. Now the big question. [...]

Corporate Egosurfing, or how to get market info for free.
Posted on Sunday, June 12th, 2005
Keeping track on what is being said in the media is somewhat of a luxury for big companies. They can afford to allocate people and time in special departments (PR, Communications, …) to track the news, journals, internet, measure campaign effectiveness, etc. Smaller family run companies don’t have that kind of resources. Their time is [...]
