I’ve been on the Internet for eight and a half years. Not long compared to some people, but long enough to have seen a lot of really, really confusing things. Things in every category about every topic imaginable.
Today, I have had to re-adjust my logic meter, because obviously there is a new zero point.
Adam Curry – yes, the ex-MTV VJ Adam Curry – is taking a stand in the RSS/n-echo war. To quote Homer Simpson, a freaky stand. Let’s dissect this.
Danny Ayers’ Formerly Echo, covering the Echo project. Makes me wish I had a typepad beta account so I could spin off some of this content into another blog.
Kevin Fanning’s The Knowledge For Thirst, a beverage blog I’m taking a second look at and cackling uncontrollably over. And I hate it when I cackle uncontrollably.
More typepad beta sites – David’s, Mena’s, Anil’s. Everything is looking great.
I have taken a few minutes to clean up my n-Echo template due to the release of Kevin Shay‘s new UTCDate plugin. This removes the dependency on MTPerlScript (of course, adding one for UTCDate), and certainly makes the template look a lot cleaner without all the perl script inserted into it three times.

Huge thanks to Kevin Shay for the help.
Edit: Thanks again to Kevin for the comment – I removed the context for MTEntryDate. I also realized that using MTEntryDate for the main modified element of the feed is technically wrong considering that MTLastModified is available. So that’s changed as well. People who have grabbed the template earlier today are recommended to grab it again.
