Re-inventing <enclosure>?

Hm. Dave is re-inventing RSS's <enclosure> element, this time as the technology-specific <torrent> element. We already have Bittorrent-as-enclosure working just fine, thank you.

OS X Tip: Get Current Airport IP

I got a bit of help from the denizens of IRC (crschmidt, kpried) in creating a little bit of shell code that, when run, will get the current IP address of en0 (on my Powerbook that's the Airport) and 1) put it on the clipboard, and 2) print it out. This should go on one line in your .bash_profile.


TechRedAuraMonk

Hey, cool. I had the opportunity today to call in and chat with Jerry Schuman on his Techaura podcast. Jerry's a cool guy, and we talked about TiVo, podcasting, TiVo, The Man, and well, TiVo. Mike Ramsay, listen up! You can subscribe to Jerry's Techaura podcast with any of the ipodders listed here.


Evening tidbits

Doing some work this evening... I lost my NetNewsWire subscriptions and managed to rebuild most of them from the cache folder, so I spent the time cleaning out the list, unsubscribing from many feeds that I just did not care about anymore. In the same spirit, I've been unsubscribing from a ton of mailing lists, and re-subscribing to them from my Gmail account. Let Google store my list archives, with all its searchable gigabyteness.


TiVo: Sucking Up To THE MAN

Well, it looks like my TiVo is going to get a lot less useful. Dammit.

PVRBlog

PVRBlog, a new site I'm subscribed to, may have some interesting things to say about the intersection of podcasting and PVRs...


TiVo & PodCasting II: Getting My Religion

Doug Kaye (producer of IT Conversations & purveyor of fine podcasts) linked to my TiVo-casting post. Thinking on it again, I saw a couple aspects to it that I had not thought through before:


Stonegrounds Revealed!

This is the coffee shop where I often come to work when I'm not going into the office. Free WiFi, great coffee and muffins. It's right around the corner from my house, I could walk if I weren't so lazy. ;)


Site Trouble

I know things are sort of broken on this site right now - please be patient. I've reduced the home page to one post, and I'm trying to figure out why its taking minutes for the home page to load.


BigMarv's How I Did That | Tivo's 30 Second Skip Easter Egg

BigMarv's How I Did That: Tivo's 30 Second Skip Easter Egg: >"As it turns out, a 30 second skip is buried within the programming of the TiVo device and can be brought to the surface using an Easter Egg. After enabling the 30 second skip feature, The skip-to-hash button becomes a 30 second skip button. Once you begin using this feature, you'll wonder how you ever lived without it."


Turn that thing off!

NYT: With Airpower and Armor, Troops Enter Rebel-Held City: >"Amid the blasts and roar of the battle, loudspeakers at mosques throughout the city were blaring, "Prepare for jihad!" and "God is great!". American commanders appeared to avoid striking the mosques."


WordPress Themes

Ryan Boren, |WordPress| developer extraorinaire, posted an article describing how themes are contructed for the upcoming release of WordPress 1.3. Will be useful sometime next summer when I find time to upgrade. :(


Playing With BlogPulse

BlogPulse trend: TiVo vs MythTV vs any mention of DVR or PVR.


More BlogPulse fun

Hehe. I should tell Matt.
