Today’s reading
Here’s a new post with things I need to get back later
and read. I thought I would see if Radio accepts the
same hidden identifiers in an email post as it does in
the text file interface. If you see a pound sign
followed by the word title, we’ll know that it
doesn’t.

Roland helps out again with tips on the Web Bug and COM scripting
My depression about no traffic seems to have been brought on by me, unwittingly of course. It seems that during my site customization, I removed the Radio UserLand web bug that is used to track referers. I could be getting a thousand hits a day (not) and be unaware. Doh! I [...]

Thank you, Roland! or Radio’s behaving again
Based on some technical goodies (namely a Radio database path) from Roland Tanglao’s weblog more than a year ago, I was able to discover some database entries that contain cached settings from the magic #upstream.xml files. Strangely enough, the backup file I had made (you’re supposed to do that, right?) was an entry in [...]

The Snail Moves Another Inch! Footage at Eleven!
Wahoo! Major breakthrough!

I’m realllly frustrated with Radio right now. But I can’t just [...]

Objects and Metadata, Trusted Schemas and the Semantic Web
Lately I’ve been thinking about all of the data pieces that I would like to track if I had a good system. But then, my data is scattered throughout a bunch of segregated systems and stored in diverse formats.
What if I had one central system to pool all of that data and manipulate it? [...]

What’s happening now
I’m posting to Radio UserLand using the mail-to-weblog feature again.
It seems OK. Today, though, it’s just an exercise, because I’m actually
using the computer that runs Radio. But still, practice is a good thing.
Well, as you may have guessed, since I haven’t posted in ages, my site
traffic is *way down*. I’m [...]

I’m testing the Mail-to-Weblog feature of Radio Userland. I just created
a dedicated email address for the purpose of posting remotely via email.
To use this feature, you must have an email account accessible by a POP3
connection. Radio connects to the email server you specify and downloads
all messages for the account. Only messages with [...]
