Radio Userland feeds still lacking (or not, my bad!)

Userland has rolled out RSS 2.0 to Radio users. RSS feeds have been silently updated to incude GUID elements that contain permalinks. The GUID goes not have the isPermaLink attribute set to True.

WTF?!

My bad, the spec says that isPermaLink=True is the default. Thank you, Justin. I can't remember if it always said that...

Blogwalking with the Zaurus

I'm still thinking about the Blogwalking on a Zaurus. My idea at this point is to stick with plain text files for weblog entries, ala Blosxom, but to roll my own system. I don't have any present need to post entries from the road, so I'm thinking that a desktop app that detects when a docked Zaurus, retrieves the entries, and posts them using the Blogger API will do the trick nicely. Most of the code that I need can be re-used from Pocket Blog...

As far as the Zaurus keyboard goes, last night I used it to type an 812 word entry for my personal journal. It wasn't any worse on my hands than a typical hand-written entry of 300-ish words and the finished entry had just one typo. I'm happy enough with that.
