The new PowerMac G5

Anyone got a few thousand spare dollars? I'd really like to get one of these when they become available.

Re: Travel Plans

Matthew Langham points out It has become somewhat funky to announce travel plans via your weblog, so this is my "me too":

• This afternoon I'll be traveling to Shoreview MN
• Tomorrow (Saturday) I'll briefly be visiting New Brighton (MN)
• Sunday will see me attending a sporting event in Cirle Pines (yes, in MN)
• On Monday I'll return to St. Paul where I live for approximately 8 hours each day (you do know where St. Paul is, don't you?)

Sorry, couldn't help but poke fun at my mundane life, and those with exciting travel-logs. ( Jun 20 2003, 10:03:36 AM ) Humor? Permalink [Trackback] [Link]

Roller now pings Weblogs.com

The long awaited feature is now in CVS.

The issue on JIRA requests pinging on changes, but Weblogs.com checks timestamps in some way and I think Roller returns the edit time of the latest post (you may have just edited an older post).

Anyway, pinging happens automatically but I was considering adding a checkbox for "Ping Weblogs.com". Is this too much info for the user?

Sunday, June 8th: By popular demand I've added the "Ping Weblogs.com" checkbox.

Re: JBoss invents Content Management

As usual, Patrick provides good commentary, and thoughtful analysis. But really, I just loved the irony of the title.

The Switch

I believe Patrick is our first Switcher from another blog tool. I've seen a few people appear on FreeRoller, stating they came there from elsewhere, but this is the first instance of someone switching their own installation that I'm aware of.

Later (6/4/3): Sorry, Danman, I never saw the post about your switch. I like your blog layout though!

Later still (6/5/3): Oop, Danman, you've lost your newly claimed trophy to sean
