OSXfaq.com - osxfaq-com

I'm very excited to announce that we will be offering an OSXFAQ Dr. Mac "tip-of-the-day" via email. Each week day I'll send you a tip, hint, trick, shortcut, "got-to-have-it" product or something else that will help you use Mac OS X better, faster, and more elegantly. So my first order of business is to ask you send me email immediately (if not sooner). I want to know what you want to know, what buttons you want me to push, what topics you want me to cover, and whatever else is on your mind. I'm Bob LeVitus at bob_levitus@osxfaq.com

On Sunday David Davies' blogged

I'm going to Dundee (in Scotland for all you non Brits) today for a presentation tomorrow on some of my Frontier-based interoperability work. There's some public stuff here:

There's a lot of potential here for Radio Userland as a desktop client allowing teachers to create their own web-based teaching & learning applications. More later.

Incidentally, David blogged his way through that day -and the next - by mobile phone!

Dave - Radio UserLand : Callbacks for Post and Publish

This evening we released support for two new callbacks that should open up new possibilities for developers to hook into the flow of content being created for Radio sites.

This is a welcome step forward in the quest to integrate Radio with Conversant in some non-trivial way. Alas, the Blogger APIs are pretty impoverished and lack support for things like a message subject.

One incentive I have for getting Radio and Conversant to interoperate to a degree is the fact that Conversant is IMHO far superior to most/all of the groupware CMS that seem to have caught peoples' eye. In fact, if it came down to a choice between Radio OR Conversant, then Conversant wins hands down for me - no contest.

I'm still thinking of the features I would like to see and how (best) to implement them. I know others are deep in thought too ;-)

Dave's been busy! - Radio UserLand : Beta: Manila-Blogger Bridge Tool

These are preliminary docs for a new Tool that allows you to flow news items entered in Radio 8 to a Manila or Blogger site, or theoretically any centralized CMS that supports the Blogger API.

Seth, you're quite right to point out that Conversant has had the capability to be blogged by mobile phone for some time.

Conversant Documentation

Conversant's XML-RPC Home Page

This site hosts information and documentation on the use of XML-RPC interfaces in Conversant.

NewsForge | We can put an end to Word attachments - Richard Stallman:

Don't you just hate receiving Word documents in email messages? Word attachments are annoying, but worse than that, they impede people from switching to free software. Maybe we can stop this practice with a simple collective effort. All we have to do is ask each person who sends us a Word file to reconsider that way of doing things.

Radio UserLand : How to create a Theme

Garth Kidd is concerned about Cloud Scalability:

Dave is pleased as punch that NewsIsFree supports publish-subscribe. I'm not so sure whether publish-subscribe is the best overall solution for scalability, however.

Garth then highlights some of the alternatives that might scale better.

Radio UserLand : Upstreaming driver architecture

I’ve been using Radio to build mac.scripting.com for a few months now, and here are a few of my favorite tips. These work for me, but your mileage may vary, of course.

Warning How to remove Windows 3.x/9x/NT/2000 and install Linux in its place is humour ;-)

Microsoft recently published a set of instructions for removing Linux in order to install Windows. Here's a detailed set of instructions on doing the reverse.
