WordPress Now Supports RSSCloud: A New Battle In Real Time Web
2009-09-08 11:53:00 RSS or Really Simple Syndication is as simple as the name suggests; it’s a way for people to subscribe to your blog. Many of you would have come to this link after you got an update from WATBlog RSS in your favourite reader. However, it has always had one major limitation and that is speed. It can take minutes to hours for a new post to reach the subscriber’s reader through RSS. One reason why many (especially me) have started using real time services like FriendFeed and Twitter is to stay updated with my regular reads on the web. I have always been a huge supporter of the real time ecosystem and the fact that the WWW is reaching the real time point, slowly but steadily. And now WordPress has announced that they will make instant updates to those RSS Readers which are using a new feature called RSSCloud (the only two readers supporting this new feature are River2 and LazyFeed). This effectively solves the problem of delay in RSS by allowing subscribers to check for updates as ...

The Friday Night Army of art critics prepares for battle
2009-09-04 15:57:00 On Friday, September 11, 2009, over 70 galleries will open their doors and showcase some of their strongest work in the opening of the season. Even though there's no official name or corporate sponsor, the streets in the West Loop and River North are filled with people, and the galleries are so packed that you can't see anything beyond the crowd. The irony is that you can't see much art on the opening night. Oh well. That's what friends are for. For us gallery rats, this is the big cheese-cube-on-a-toothpick night, and the box wine and Old Style flows like a river. Who's charging at the door on opening night? (one gallery is) Is it going to...

98th ING Bay to Breakers Has Interesting Race Battle
2009-05-17 07:06:00 More at Zennie62.com | Follow me on Twitter! The 98th running of what is now called the ING Bay to Breakers (I have to admit I was used to "The San Francisco Examiner Bay To Breakers" because the name "San Francisco" was in it) kicks off tomorrow (Sunday, May 17th) and for the first time, I'm not running it; I'm covering it. It's a weird feeling but a totally new experience. As media you get to attend a very cool press conference, as I did on Friday at the Hyatt Regency San Francisco. You also get to talk to the main celebrity runners and the race organizers and sponsors. You also get a lot of great food and drink. But back to the race itself. I've ran 19th of these events - yes, 19 straight times with my best time 1:04.30 - so I feel qualified to talk about how crazy the day is. In fact, the day's gotten so out of hand in the recent past, that earlier this year ING's race organizers tried to put a break on some activities by floating the policy of a b...

(Very Huge) Battle of the Giants, New Threadless T-shirt by Alex Solis
2009-05-05 03:17:00 It was a quite night. Some people were ready for bedtime, while others were going back from work. Suddenly, people were shocked with a huge bang sound. Buildings fell and fire started everywhere -- people screamed, it was a chaos. The Moon, stars and burning city were the eye witness of battle of the giants between King Kong and The Robot. Nobody knew what started the battle and who can stop the battle -- perhaps Ultraman or Godzilla? But they knew they were not going to sleep that night.Thanks to Alex Solis and Threadless members, who voted for this design, for bringing this design to the earth and let us witness the battle of the century. This design is 8-color screen printed on American Apparel tee with plastisol ink and a chino additive for softness; available for $18 in guys, girls and kids size.

The Losing Battle Against Technology Freedom
2009-02-26 04:23:00 Even notice that you can hardly use a computer anymore without being in somebody's cross-hairs? Somebody, somewhere, is always out to get you. All we want to do is use these clever devices they keep making for us to buy, and be happy and not bother anybody. But somebody out there apparently didn't learn how to play nice with others. There's the SCO attack against Linux. It drags on still. It's been set back so many times, any sane entity would have given up by now. But it won't end until the very last possible penny. There's the couple who tried to sue Google for taking their picture in StreetView. Thrown out, of course. Who could possibly have not seen that coming? The Pirate Bay is under attack, again. Of course, the case is falling to pieces before it can even get rolling, but you think that'll stop more filers from trying? Welcome to the new century, people! You do not own your media. You do not even own your own image if you're out in public view. You cannot control...
