Tool Maniac

I had way too much fun with Radio tonight. So much fun, in fact, that I returned the template back to the way it was when I first started. I'm understanding its power more and more with every passing hour – and that's a good thing. Dave showed me how it can handle RSS feeds, although I'm not convinced it's better than what I have (only becaues I've got total control over how the headlines are displayed). To see what I'm talking about, click on one of the new sidebar “Headline” links. Up will pop a window which includes the linked site's most recent XML / RSS feed. I parsed it using RSS Monkey.

What I'm probably going to end up doing is posting interesting bits of tech news to my Radio blog and my personal quips here. I suppose it depends on how comfortable Gretchen is with it. She loves the Comments feature of Movable Type too much. I think the simplicity and locality of Radio UserLand will tip the scales (in Radio's favor). It still needs an easier hosted URL, though. In time, in time.
