  • Happy Thanksgiving – there doesn’t need to be a link does there? Actually, a friend has told me that The National Dog Show that follows the Macy’s Parade on NBC is a can’t miss. Like Best in Show, but… err, real
  • Simon on Google, Microsoft and Tall Poppies – I know they’ve gone on tape (wasn’t it on Triumph of the Nerds) w/ the MS s/w in every home; maybe they’ve changed their line recently
  • Feedster on what do w/ problem blogs like mine – actually, I wouldn’t spend too much effort on this special case. ie, in all my web travels over the last few months I can’t recall really a single blog that generates feeds and doesn’t have permalinks.

Also, many of the permalinks given in RSS feeds point to fragments within the home-page, which become invalid once it rolls over. Of course, Feedster is doing better than Google. It’s almost surprising that Google still doesn’t try to make any effort at all to track content to permalinks
