Microsofts Licenses Unix

Earlier today when I read about Microsoft entering into a licensing agreement with SCO Unix I didn’t know what to make of it.

Now in CDF

Don Box asked for it. Sam Ruby complied and then it seems like an avalanche of support suddenly appeared. Oh, well, Blosxom makes it trivial to add so Larry’s Log is now available in CDF.

Poetry, RDF and Finding Things

Shelley is working on a little project that may have ramifications far outside of the intended target of her project. She’s looking for a way to locate metaphors in poetry that relate to a specific theme. At first glance I thought, “Hey, this is kind of neat.” Then I looked at how what she is [...]

It does have an RSS 1.0 feed located at http://www.dallasbay.net/betalog/index.rss10. I’ll be playing with some of the plugins as I find time. Time may be short over the [...]

Blosxom 2.0 Beta is out.

Rael released the first beta code of Blosxom 2.0 yesterday. I downloaded it this morning and will be installing it sometime today to create a test blog for this software. I’ll point to it when I get things working well enough. It will mirror this blog.

The biggest news is that this version of Blosxom supports [...]

First Impressions of Blosxom

I’ve had a chance to play with Blosxom for a couple of days now and I have to say I get more impressed with it the more I play. I didn’t fully comprehend the power of this little script when I first installed it but after setting up a few directories underneath my content directory [...]
