Reason #418 to love @fastly http://t.co/HfIDgmezX1

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.

Random Stuff:

• Thanks to Scoble linking to this post, I'm now #41 on Popdex. I'll be gone in a couple days, but it's been fun!
• TidBITS is looking for a CMS, Zope/Plone mentioned as a possibility.
• I rode 16 miles yesterday, in 1 hour, 20 minutes. My longest ride this year.

Ok, I'm on my second cup already because I got distracted. After noticing Scoble's link to Joel on Software, I decided to read Joel's most recent email article, on Building Communities with Software. It got me thinking about how the forum on this site works. I may make some changes around here but I'm not sure yet.

Following a megnut link about a job listing Meg posted to Craig's List, I found that the Craig's List site is really cool. It seems to be a site that allows the creation of online communities - there's a big one for New York, one for Phoenix, etc. I think I'm going to add this site to my collection of places to look for jobs. I noticed that the few postings I looked at were written in a person's voice - not the Recruiter-droid&trademark lingo you hear on most other job sites.

Ugh. Jim wanted to report a bug in Userland's Radio Userland, and ask a question. The reward for his trouble?
