See you at Blogher!: I won't be there this evening for any pre-schmoozing, but I will be driving down to San Jose bright and early tomorrow a.m. to take in the splendor that will be Blogher. I'll bring the camera and try to post some shots during the day or soon afterward.... (Event blogging)

Migrating from LiveJournal to Movable Type: Having migrated a weblog (this one) from Radio to Movable Type and another from Blogger Pro to Movable Type, my next migration project has been to get my old bodega weblog migrated over from LiveJournal to Movable Type, and imported into my X-POLLEN blog. The definitive resource for LJ to MT... (Migration)

Beyond title, link, description: Jake Ludington's been posting some thoughts about RSS in his weblog, since Gnomedex just ended and RSS was in the air there. He questions whether RSS is "all that", allowing that "RSS (or something like it) is permanently changing the way online publishers deliver content," but pointing out that "RSS isn't...

Update on Pie: Mark's still calling it Atom. Some people are still calling it Necho. Whatever you call it, Mark Pilgrim has an update on the project to define a vendor-neutral API, archiving, and feed format for weblogs, and a pointer to the API-in-progress and some sample feeds. Myself, I'm returning to the original... (Syndication)

LiveJournal Appendix: I keep thinking of unique things about LiveJournal. For example, comments to an LJ blog can be set to automatically trigger an e-mail alert (or not, it's a preference). I love this feature. Radio should offer something similar. LJ has a profile feature in which you can specify interests. This is... (Weblog Concepts)

A Couple-Three More Interesting Referers Today: One person each came by from My just-created profile at Ryze.org A google search for "blogistan"* A google search for "live journal templates" * After blogrolling, blogistan might be a good one to talk about. Today I found a blog that entitled one of its entries Radio Free Blogistan just about... (Weblog Concepts)

Using Radio with Blogger: You can mirror a Radio blog to a Blogger blog (one-way only). Here's an interesting little discussion from my comments about this: Comments in response to this post: Hi there I started blogging with blogger on blogspot.com and still have 2 weblogs there which are fed via categories from one weblog...

Blogger vs. Radio: Well, I've slacked on posting this info in a timely manner, partly out of fear of overlooking some key Blogger feature and getting jumped on. I'm also trying to be organized and systematic about this but only partially succeeding. It's nice to get a conversation started and bring out further details... (Weblog Concepts)

Fixed the Junk Mail Archives: As slick as Blogger's interface is, it can still confuse me at times, with the multiple path listings and the model for archiving. I've finally got the archive links working in my Media Junk Mail blog (and I've changed the url to get rid of the .html extension, but really as... (Weblog Concepts)

Lieberman Had his Chance: Joe Conason says Gore should run if only to preempt Lieberman, saying he added very little to the ticket in 2000. I'd tend to agree. I'm still fuming at him for giving a Cheney a pass during their one debate when Cheney claimed that his windfall fortune of the '90s "had... ()

Building Link Taxonomies: Say, does Radio offer any link management features? I realize that the blog model says that only the latest or most-linked-to sites are of interest, but it seems that categorizing these links (beyond simply the category/channels built into Radio) might be worthwhile. For one thing, I could tell if I had... (Best Practices)

Corporate Blogs: The growing idea that businesses and other enterprises can benefit from using blogs to categorize relevant external links or contextualize and prioritize their own knowledge stores continues to show up in media such as this (don't laugh) WorldCom article.... (Best Practices)

Homework for Radio vs. Blogger Matchup: AppSwitching Diary at LooselyCoupled.com discusses the decision one publisher made between Radio and Blogger for his site. The writer, Phil Wainewright, opted for Blogger but doesn't make a very strong argument for it, discussing customizable templates, something both services feature. He does cite this difference: Radio requires installation on my local... (Weblog Concepts)

This Morning's Referer Logs (and Coffee): Found some interesting links in my referer logs this morning (I keep wanting to spell it referrer, not sure why). Flak Magazine writes positively about Salon's move and calls Radio Free Blogistan the rare blog about blogging that actually gets beyond bashing small-town newspaper columnists who think blogging is self-indulgent. New... (Weblog Concepts)

Testing the Manila-Blogger Bridge: Posting this should create a mirror of this site (at http://memewatch.com/blogistan/). Hmm, it doesn't pick up the backlog (the 'klog). Strangely the mirror seems to be down now, or I don't fully understand how it's supposed to work (more likely). It isn't picking up new posts or edited posts, for that... (Weblog Concepts)

Blog Making Sense: Went to see Television Sunday night at the Great American Music Hall with three old friends, all of whom are fairly hip and web savvy, none of whom have ever heard the word "blog." I explained what I could but it reminded me that while we may be around the tipping... (Memes)
