On Sunday, Tom and I (and his Dad and Uncle) went out 4-wheeling near Argentine Pass, which is about an hour west of Denver. His uncle (a geologist) was quite excited about the whole thing and was glued to the topo map we had with us. He pointed out that the place we stopped for [...]

Relative links in RSS and Atom
The upcoming 1.3 version of NewsGator fully supports relative links. I’m writing this here to make sure I haven’t missed anything…input is appreciated. 1.3 beta testers – what is written here does not reflect your latest code.When resolving all links, including <link> and similar elements, and content links (description, content:encoded, atom:content), xml:base behavior is used.

NewsGator HTTP report card
Mark Pilgrim recently posted a set of feeds to test proper HTTP support in aggregators. Here’s how NewsGator fares. Note that you won’t be able to test these yourself, as Mark’s test feeds are Atom feeds; this was based on NewsGator 1.3 beta code with Atom support. “Success” below means NewsGator behaved correctly according to [...]

Buying Music online
Chris and Tomas talk about their digital music experiences: Chris replays his poor experience buying music online with www.buymusic.com. All I can say is: I’m a happy EMusic customer now. Granted, I only joined a couple of weeks ago, but it couldn’t be easier, it has no stupid DRM to deal with, and the music [...]
Pueblo National
Another great day on Sunday. Tires felt great, car felt great, driver felt great – leading to another pole (by 0.2 seconds over 2nd, and about a second over 3rd). During the race, there was some heavy pressure – another car was within 2 seconds of me for the first 15 laps or so, but [...]
This weekend at Pueblo Motorsports Park
Since the last time I wrote here about racing, there has been one more national, where I finished 4th again. Not good… This weekend is another regional/national at Pueblo Motorsports park. This is the last national of the year in our division. I was out testing on Friday, and had nothing but problems – it [...]
The time I met Dave Winer
Ted posted a few days ago about how he met Dave Winer last week: As I mentioned in my blog last week, I briefly met Dave Winer at OSCON last week. I have to admit being a little nervous about it, because I offended Dave earlier in a thoughtless way. But Dave paid me about [...]
Good and Bad…
I have mixed feelings about this post: Here’s some of the crap that’s caught my attention in the blogosphere and in the news using NewsGator in Outlook. Love this app. So far so good. If anyone has a cracked version, let me know. Yikes! Now of course I’m very happy he likes NewsGator. But it [...]
Installer problems, cont’d
Well, after some more research (thanks again to everyone who responded!), it seems that the following registry key is occasionally not getting created:HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\{B888BA11-6DF7-499D-8D98-F6B87AFA2359}The key is supposed to be created by the windows installer engine, and if this key is missing, the remove button will be disabled/missing (depending on the OS).This seems to happen on approximately [...]
