Mark Pilgrim’s What is RSS

Recovered from the Wayback Machine.

Mark Pilgrim has a new article over at O’Reilly Network: What is RSS. It focuses on working with the major varieties of RSS out in net land.

Considering that Mark isn’t exactly the greatest fan of RDF/XML, I thought his coverage of RSS 1.0 to be unbiased. He didn’t holler out with, “RDF sucks but it’s out there, so we’ll have to live with it!” I’ll make Mark a fan of RDF/XML yet.

Non-Tech content

Recovered from the Wayback Machine.

I am going to be heavily involved with technology and technology-related writing in the next few weeks. For those of you who aren’t interested in technology (and why aren’t you?), I would like to point you to some excellent non-tech related posts worth your read:

 

Steve Himmer’s The Words behind the Words

Jeff Ward’s response

Steve Himmer’s response to the response

AKMA’s two posts on learning: here and here

Though somewhat technical, Jonathon Delacour’s continuing series “Conversation with Joe Clark”, such as the third entry are well worth a read.

Loren Weber’s continuing series on the poet MacLeish, including the latest entry

Back to the technology. Back to the book.

Where’d they go?

Recovered from the Wayback Machine.

In case you’re wondering what happened to several posts, I’m in the process of moving all RDF-related weblog entries over to the Practical RDF weblog.

The great thing about Movable Type on top of MySql is how easy it is to move entries around among weblogs. One SQL script is all it takes. The archives will continue to show in both areas until I add the moved entries into PostCon and have it manage the re-directs for me.
