Wireless via Starbuck’s new T-Mobile service at the Transportation Center near the theatre district in downtown Boston. Prepping for my presentation later today to the IAFCI conference with one of my co-workers. Long night of scotch last night 😉
CBS News: “Support for the First Amendment has eroded significantly since Sept 11 and nearly half of Americans now think the constitutional amendment on free speech goes too far in the rights it guarantees, according to a new poll.” [Scripting News]

A note to people writing articles about RSS-based news aggregators. UserLand wrote and deployed the first one, in the spring of 1999. It was called My.UserLand.Com and was quite popular. We then took the same code and converted it to run on the desktop, in the Radio environment. This was called My.UserLand on the Desktop, and it was also quite popular. It was then baked into Radio 7, and enhanced in Radio 8. To write a review about news aggregators and to not include Radio, is wrong, and if you have a reason for doing it, it should be clearly disclaimed in your article so your readers understand. Already one BigPub has done this (with no explanation). We care about people knowing about our innovations. We don’t file patents so other developers can compete with us. But please don’t penalize us for our philosophy of generosity. Thanks. [Scripting News]
