PayPal Mobile Launches - And It’s Awesome. PayPal has launched its mobile payment platform, called, of course, PayPal Mobile. Oliver Starr at MobileCrunch had the scoop and was also slashdotted an hour ago.
This spells trouble for existing mobile payment provider TextPayMe. PayPal’s solution is fully baked, easy to use, and has some great features that take this beyond a way to text [...] [TechCrunch]

i'm poking around the textdrive control panels and such. mighty geeky in there. kinda scary compard to pair but i think i'm going to like it here once i settle in. first thing to do is read up on how they suggest i go about adding a new domain.

Dear Donovan Watts,
Thank you for subscribing to TextDrive hosting!
You can expect to receive detailed information about access to your account shortly. In the interest of getting to know our clients right from the start, we have deliberately not automated the account creation process. This means that setup times vary, depending on the current queue and other unavoidable things such as sleep.
Thank you for choosing TextDrive, and welcome aboard!
I just couldn't pass up the mixed grill special. and now the transition away from pair networks begins.
one neat thing when signing up for a textdrive account is that you can select which, if any, of the developers for various projects you'd like to support. textdrive will give some profit amount to them on your behalf. i chose to support the textmate.
looking forward to the daylite 3 release. i had to unsub from the email list because 1. i dont' want to install the beta and 2. all they are talking about on the list is the beta.
john, has anything good happened since you left? hells yeah!
hello iTunes spam department? yes, please stop sending me iTunes email announcements about crap i could care less about. thanks.
open all night, choose preferences from the community menu in the opml editor to change how many days display on the home page. my mistake. i didn't read it close enough. talking about the RSS file, not the web site home page.

NetNewsWire Lite 2.1b18—the first public beta of Lite 2.1—has been released!

Read the NetNewsWire Lite 2.1b18 change notes for the full scoop!
You can download it from the NetNewsWire betas page. (Just remember that it is a beta: it’s not finished software and it will have bugs.)

today's must see video
Nuclear bombs in the hands of terrorists are frightening enough, but imagine your own government blowing them up near your hometown: What would it do to your community. To your family? How would you react? And could anything be done to stop it from happening in the first place?
On this edition, we'll hear how the world's most powerful weapons shaped the identity of two rural communities in the United States during the 1960s. One, a small town in southern Mississippi; the other, a native village in the land of the midnight sun: Alaska.
Featuring:
James and Dorothy Lowe, Anne and Steve Bounds, Grace Burge, Timmy Gibson and Bill Bishop, residents of Baxterville, Mississippi; Bob Goff, director of radiological health, Mississippi Department of Health; Grayson Rayborn, professor emeritus of physics and astronomy, University of Southern Mississippi; Dan O'Neil, author, "The Firecracker Boys"; Dorkus Rock, Inupiaq elder and resident of Point Hope; George Kingik, mayor of Point Hope; Alice Webber and Steve Oomittuk, Point Hope residents.
This week's host: Tena Rubio.
| Contributing producers: Andrew Stelzer, Gabriel Spitzer. |

hmmmm.. perhaps i'll setup manuals.becomethemedia.org and install hieraki. then i'll convert radio userland: the missing manual and opml editor (the missing manual) into heiraki wikis like the textdrive people do for their manuals.
Hieraki is a collaborative book writing tool which combines the best part of the common wiki with a hierarchy (hence hiera-ki). See it in action here.
