iJot is a web-based outliner. Free accounts get you a weblog, you can also create outlines online and save them to your machine locally. I made an outline, and the OPML Editor opened it with no problems. I haven't run one by the OPML Validator yet, though. KOZOPML Browser -- a Kosso production. Was this around for awhile and I missed it? It's pretty cool looking. Like the map. Fran reports that blogger/podcaster Loic LeMeur interviewed the French Minister of the Interior, hipped him to podcasts, and gave him a Nano. Jeez, when I get interviewed, all I get is misquoted ;->. Virgil: I'm still trying to figure out the OPML community thing. Hi, Virgil! Welcome to the experiment. Here's hoping we never figure it out, because then all the fun will be over! Rafael Sidi says that Thompson Peterson, a major educational publisher, has introduced OPML for edufeeds.com. Thompson Peterson on its OPML directory "Thanks to all of you who have contributed RSS and Atom feeds of your school’s content for Thomson Peterson’s Edufeeds.com, the directory of college and university feeds. The directory is pushing 900 feeds, and it grows each week. It’s time to give something back. This week, the directory began supporting OPML exports of feeds in individual directory nodes, making it easy for you to begin subscribing to large blocks of feeds in the directory." OPML is about data freedom -- getting your data out of proprietary programs -- but it's also about data confidence. Thompson could have collected all that stuff and gotten stingy, and said, no, this data you sent us is now our proprietary resource, our competitive advantage. But they're more confident than that: they say, here's our resource: think you can make something better of it than we can? Try it, big guy. Think iTunes will do that with their database of podcast feeds, or for that matter with your own subscriptions? Andromeda Island Universe. Wow. Robert Prather: update: "After typing such personal and tangential blog posts I still think, "Is this what the OPML blogs are for?" If not, somebody let me know because I'm just gonna keep blabbing. Why am I so worried about 'doing the right thing' on this blog? Ugh..." I like your blog and I think you should do just exactly what you're doing. It's truthful, that's good in any medium. |
