Joseph Scott has a post on the main WordPress site that explains that they are now supporting the two enhancements that were announced here on October 16. What this means: Now any aggregator that wants instant updates of WordPress sites can have it. It was an issue for complex sites like Google Reader, that's why we enhanced our apps, so they could hook into rssCloud and provide instant updates to...
The other day as I was moving my RSS feeds from Bloglines to Google Reader [1], I checked to see when was the last time I posted. Much to my shock, it had been back in August, and it was about an incident that had happened in July. All this time, I had [...]

I can't believe it's Saturday and the week is behind us. I have no idea what I actually got done this past week but I know it was a lot and I went through it all at about 70 MPH with no rear view mirror. I had projects at the school Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday. That really threw me off and left me with little time for anything else. Throw in work, kids activities, getting ready for Halloween,...
In a fit of enthusiasm, DH bought a copy of the aforementioned abomination software and installed it yesterday on our main desktop computer downstairs. What do I think ? Disappointed is an understatement. The display is pants rubbish, and unless you have it set on the largest font size, web pages on an old -fashioned monitor are appallingly difficult to read.It is very much designed for modern flat...
Okay, this is a really stupid question, but I'll throw it out there anyway: Would anyone have a recommendation for a feed aggregator (a la Bloglines or Google Reader) that works with Twitter feeds? I'm looking for the laziest solution possible, basically. Nothing happening around here. No poker. I did take a survey sent to me by Full Tilt - I kind of suspect I wasn't really the target audience. None...

Ishbel, that is. Really, 3657 people can't be wrong. I'm using some of my beautiful baby alpaca from Donyale - colourway "Splat!". I don't think the colourway actually has an ! in it, but I always see it that way in my mind. This yarn is bee-u-di-ful, can I just say? Soft as a.. well, baby alpaca, and a delight to knit with. Lucky I have another colourway stashed (Sir Walter) because I have...
A headline this morning on a press release about the 2009 Cone Consumer New Media Study reads, “Four-out-of-Five New Media Users Interact with Companies and Brands Online, up 32% from 2008.” This isn’t so much shocking news as it is confirmation of what we marketers already logically believe. If you’re online, you probably want to interact [...] Help Support The Marketing Technology...

I love the Mac ads. Most people do, because they funny, without being offensive. They don’t bore us with product details, but in 30 seconds or less, resonate with their audience, becuase they get “right to the pain”. As you watch them it is easy to assume that Mac, and Apple in general has always had great advertising. But [...] Help Support The Marketing Technology Blog It's not...
