Monday, November 12, 2001Last night I did probably the last step in the Weblogs.Com corner-turn. I got the favorites-based desktop version of Weblogs.Com working in the beta of Radio 7.1 (not released yet). It was a pretty smooth transition. I expect that other people will do similar interfaces in Python, Java, Perl, etc. The key to performance is distributing the prefs-based stuff, and store and render-through-favorites on the local computer where there's plenty of unused CPU bandwidth. And a note to designers who are starting to love XML, check it out, a very simple XML feed is behind this useful interface.
