Web-Seitz. Bill Seitz: Web services on the desktop make sense.

"But between not wanting to host anything that complex on my work machine (because when I change jobs I have to move it somehow, and because of potential firewall/NAT issues), and not necessarily wanting to have to keep a home machine up/online all the time (in fact, I'm happy to have saved space by dumping my old desktop and only having a laptop as a personal machine), I still think that smart proxy should be off someplace else."

Two solutions: xmlStorageSystem for network storage and Jabber to tunnel firewalls and NATs.

Zopefish: I decided to look into Jabber.

"What piqued my interest was two things in concert -- the concept of Presence, and the ability to Tunnel RPC technologies like XML-RPC over Jabber." Let's hook up Radio and Jabber. Sounds like a KnowNow killer.

Here is a cool view of UserLand.com's servers. I haven't used this tool since 1996.

Empowered.com Here is (according to Netcraft) the first non-Microsoft .NET site.

"There are already between six and seven hundred sites running Microsoft-IIS/6.0 and Windows .Net Server, the operating system that will succeed Windows 2000 sometime next year. Windows .Net Server has had little media attention relative to .Net, and there has been no prior reporting of the availability of a pre release, but the sites running the Windows .Net pre-release are spread over several countries. "

Here is a directory of i-mode sites. Here is a list of official sites and an example of what an i-mode site looks like. It looks like a Weblog would work very well within this framework. If someone wants to set up a community of i-mode viewable Radio UserLand Weblogs, I will work with them on it to make it happen.

Even though my 802.11b network connection say I'm not connected and out of range, I can still connect. No explanation, but it's cool to be able to walk around the entire house and still be connected to the Internet.

Here is a reference site for the subset of HTML usable on i-mode phones. Again, if anyone has built a tool for Radio or Frontier that can publish i-mode Weblogs let me know.
