Last Post This is the very last post that I will be making to the Radio iteration of the blog. Over the next 72 hours, DNS will propagate the pointers to the new site, which is already up and running in a preliminary form. The URL for the new site will simply be http://www.byte.org. There's much housekeeping to do over coming weeks, but now is the time to get out of Radio and fully into the new content management system.
There are a lot more details regarding this transition that can be found on this post at the new blog.
Please note that the archives and RSS feeds will continue to work at the URLs that they should, but that they are, in the case of the RSS, obsoleted by feeds at the new site, and in the case of the archives, will be duplicated by archives that will be moved to the new installation. There are also more details regarding this on the new site.

ahhh...its the email that I get that makes all of this so much fun. Scott swears that its spelled "knarley" and even funnier, I just had someone drop me a note asking me what a mock spammer was. *Ahem*. I was using it in a verb sense, not in the adjective sense. Made me laugh though. Scott also recommended that I cut back on the trolling a little bit (it sounded much more threatening when he said it...) which makes some sense - I do need some snooze.

You can tell its a slow day when... I have nothing better to do than arrange fights between readers and mock spammers. Apparently there are two other people that read this blog as well - Scott, meet Joe. Joe, meet Scott. Joe and Scott, meet Dan and a bunch of Dan's co-workers. Scott - Dan thinks have no taste in blogs and Joe said he'd rough you up unless you lightened up...or something like that. I suppose that all of this is better than ranting about Radio.

Today's to-do list:
Everything closes in five and a half hours....lets see how much this I can get done.
- Go to office, organize files, throw out eighteen million drafts of the whois and transfers TF reports.
- Go back to office and grab the envelope containing the receipts for all the expenses that you haven't filed for the last year.
- Go to Walmart and see if you can find a strap to replace the one for the fake Rolex that you bought in China.
- Go to supermarket and buy a bunch of stuff for lasagna.
- Go back to office and grab the recipe that you forgot to pickup off the VPN printer the first time you were there.
- Go to Sears and see if they have replacement dinner plates for our set.
- Go to bank, make deposit.
- Go home, make Lasagna, do Garfield impersonation, watch Alias.

Radio 16, Me 1 So interestingly, it appears that my earlier whinings about Radio munging posts was simply me being short-sighted ;) Now while I still think that this is one of the most complicated pieces of software out there (theoretically magnificent, practically unbearable), I'm beginning to get the hang of things - but let me say this one more time in a slightly different way.
I used to run a BBS that ran on software called FeatherNet, a PCBoard clone. It rendered templates into screens and required the use of a ton of macros. Radio brings back those memories all too vividly. It makes me feel like a Sysop. I hate feeling like a Sysop. Everything takes too long. Ever try and dump macros into an ANSI editor? sigh...
Anyways, this rant is brought to you for a very specific reason. If I can use the HTML editor built into Outlook Express to my satisfaction and post via email, I might just give up on trying to modify the innards of the buzzard to my liking.
And if Dave Winer or anyone else at Userland reads this, I think you've all done an excellent job. I paid for your software. Don't let my whining obscure the fact that I paid for it. People that really hate software don't whine about it, rather, they don't pay for it. :)
