Image of the corn we planted too late, back when it was coming up nice (higher than my boot, as you can see) and green. Didn’t turn out very well, PS – but made a nice background for my boot, dontcha think?

August 6, 2009 by wludwickQuestion for Lazyweb (i.e. anyone!): how do i create a feed from this wordpress blog that filters for just content associated w/ a certain category and/or tag?
Test from TextMate
July 31, 2007 by wludwickWas unable to import post to TextMate, because of a problem with date format incompatibilities, i.e.:
Received exception:wrong datetime.iso8601 format
No posts are available!
Still, maybe it will work in the other direction, let’s see…
A smarter Address Book
February 25, 2007 by wludwickUntil now, i have worked (grudgingly, sometimes) within the limitations of Apple’s “Address Book,” without even knowing that it was extensible via Plugin… So i was pleased to learn (thru Versiontracker) of this “Relationship Completer” Plugin just released. Did the download, installed it (per howto at http://tlsoftware.wordpress.com/software/) in the “/Library/Address Book Plug-Ins” folder (trying both user and root level), but no joy in either case. That is to say: i don’t see any added menu item, and i still have the same problem of having to manually enter partner’s name on either side of the relationship field (value = spouse) coin, and then having the problem of redundant data on both sides. What am i missing here, i wonder?
PS: Hmm… My last entry (also posted via MarsEdit) was truncated at line 1, i see… So i’m still struggling with that one too – attesting yet again to wisdom of Douglas Adams’ famous maxim that “the definition of technology is: stuff that doesn’t work right yet.”
Earthshaking

Who can see which parts of my published surface area?
February 3, 2007 by wludwickWho can see which parts of my published surface area?: “
“To describe the various projections of ourselves into cyberspace, I use the following metaphor: we’re cells, and we’re growing the surface area of our cellular membranes. Every time I write a blog item, or post a Flickr photo, or tag a resource in del.icio.us, I enlarge the surface area of that membrane. I do it for two reasons. First, because I want influence to flow from me to the world. Second, because I want influence to flow the other way too. I’m soliciting feedback and interaction…”
Jon goes on to explain how, once your virtual surface area is enlarged to a certain point, you really *can’t* be aware of it all without some feedback – easy enough to achieve in your public realm, but regarding those parts of your membrane that are private (or visible to only some special set of individuals), including even those parts that you have forgotten about (that might come back to bite you later), getting the feedback you need can be a knotty problem indeed. I like your image of the personal cyber surface-area viewer, Jon, with the fine-grained control for drilling-down thru privilege-space… This reminds me (sans screw-knob, keyboard works well enough for me to navigate such trees) of the tag browser feature in WebnoteHappy -if you swap out the notion of semantic tags, and swap in for it the notion of privileged users/ groups (any number of which can be assigned to a content item, as with semantic tags).

a good analysis of today’s big news item, including a link to the actual report (i.e. a 21-page .pdf, executive summary-type thing, with lots of colorful graphs and links the hardcore scientific data).
