• JK.com -- Feedburner Pro Enabled

  I posted a while back about the Feedburner MyBrand service ...I've been taking it for a spin on some other low traffic feeds and am nothing less than blown away, so JK.com is now Feedburner enabled and ready to rock. Community Server 2007 has built in support for Feedburner out of the box; it's as simple as plugging values into a couple of textboxes, flipping a switch or two, and blammo...syndication feeds are burnerized. What that all means is that the transition should be seamless for existing...

• Linked To By Wiki -- Note To Self, Write Better Articles

  I recently noticed a reasonable spike in traffic around here a few days ago; turns out an entry of mine got linked to by a Wiki article (no, I didn't make the link from Wiki myself ;-)). The point of this entry isn't to garner kudos or pat myself on the back (of course the ego points do make me feel all warm and fuzzy inside). The point is that the article that was linked to mentions in passing the point: A breaking change in the .Net framework from 1.x to 2.0. If you were to go strictly by the title...

• Feedburner MyBrand Service -- Brand Your Feedburner Feed

  I've had a Feedburner account for a while now, but have been reluctant to throw the switch on my site's feeds over to it...while I may not have a huge circulation (and therefore no "brand" to adhere to), I'd like to keep what little recognition I do have in my feed address instead of the generic feedburner.com/whatever, i.e. my name (or in the case of clients, their company name, etc). Feedburner now offers a pretty impressive array of services, so I was in the process of giving in and started to...

• First Post Via Windows Live Writer

  Kevin Harder recently sent out an email to the Community Server internal alias with a link to Windows Live Writer (beta), which is a new desktop blog posting tool from Microsoft (I currently use BlogJet for all of my posting needs, but so far I'm very impressed with the WLW GUI from what I've seen). Installation was painless; there's an option for Community Server as your blogging platform so it pretty much configured itself. Gotta love that. I don't think Dmitry over at BlogJet will be too happy... Posted Aug 14 2006, 12:19 AM by Jayson Knight with | with 2 comment(s) Filed under: Technology and Internet, Links and News, Metablog

• Kyle MacDonald Completes His Quest

  Via CNN ( full article here ): One year ago, the 26-year-old blogger from Montreal set out to barter one red paper clip for something and that thing for something else, over and over again until he had a house. On Wednesday the quest is ending as envisioned: MacDonald is due to become the proud owner of a three-bedroom, 1,100-square-foot home provided by the town of Kipling, Saskatchewan. MacDonald and his girlfriend, Dominique Dupuis, expect to move there in early September. That’s pretty...

• CoComment Is Out Of Beta

  According to the devs over at CoComment , their service is officially out of beta and open to anyone willing to sign up for it. They seem to have ironed most of the major kinks out of the system, and so far I’ve thoroughly enjoyed using it, namely for the fact that I can keep up with all of my comments (on coco enabled blogs at least) in one place. Getting your blog coco enabled is a snap, and now that it’s fully automated is painless for your users to take advantage of. They recently...

• Track your comments, no matter where you make them

  Hot off the presses via Scoble : Let’s say you track 10 blogs and you regularly post comments on all 10 blogs. Isn’t it a pain in the behind that you have to go around to each of the 10 blogs to participate in the comments? Well, minutes ago Laurent Haug showed us a service, CoComment, that tracks your comments in one place. This is awesome. Here’s a picture of Laurent showing this to us. As Scoble states, it’s currently in closed beta…but you can leave your email address... Posted Feb 04 2006, 05:13 PM by Jayson Knight with | with 10 comment(s) Filed under: Links and News, Metablog

• Guy Kawasaki is Blogging

  I recently found out that Guy Kawasaki is blogging (via ScottW’s blog, the post aptly titled “ How To Be A Demo God ”): His site is located here . If I hadn’t grown up as an Apple fanatic, I wouldn’t have recognized his name; he goes way back to the early days of that company, and has done numerous other things in the technological realm as well. His blog is absolutely packed with information, and it’s one of the very few I’ve discovered recently that I’ve clicked on the first post and started reading...

• Some Blogger Link Lovin'

  Sushant has been leaving some pretty good comments on my blog as of late, so I figured I’d give him a proper introduction on my site (plus his site runs on Community Server which is always a plus :-) ). Check out his site here . A nice mix of tech blended in with quite a bit of humor (plus he finally got a domain name I can remember). Keep up the good work Sushant!
