Re: And RSS is not dead either

Steve Gillmore's post obviously was "East River" material.

RSS and twitter aren't even similar tools.

"Hydrogen no longer needed now that we have Oxygen." Boy, I'm thirsty.

I think they're trying to create a wave towards Twitter, but I'll stick a bit longer with Google Reader. With this, I choose what to read without been annoyed and have to follow for courtesy.

Amen and alellujah! If there were a few more hours in the day I would have commented and/or posted on this myself. Soooooo many people don't even know what RSS is and it remains the most valuable information management tool that I have in my networking/marketing/information-sharing toolbox.

When Oprah does a show on the RSS feed, then we'll know it's hit the mainstream. Until then, I will have to agree to disagree with all the death-knelling going on with the techie-hipsters.

Call me "old-school" (again) when I say I still love the good ol' fashioned telephone AND I'll be hanging on to my RSS feed reader, which in my opinion, has PLENTY of life left in it.

Best,

Re: Authoring Blogs with Microsoft Word is Asking for Trouble

ContentRobot — Tue, 28 Apr 2009 11:47:14 -0000

Hi, Berry ...

WordPress strips out any formatting such as tabs, double spaces between sentences, and double paragraph returns. These formats are leftover from the older print days, but they no longer necessary for readability online. To keep things streamlined, most online programs (including WP) is ignore the extra formatting.

Also, while its WYSIWYG is better, it sometimes doesn't display the post as it will be finally rendered. We recommend that you use the Preview button so you can see what it will look like before you publish.

Good luck! ContentRobot

Why won't my tabulation hold up when I post to my BLOG? It sometimes looks OK in the pre-view, but still scatters when I actually post

Those are good tips.. if you link out to a lot of sites though, that don't ever link back to you, does that end up hurting your page rank?

Re: Blog Platform Wars: WordPress 2.0 vs. Drupal 4.7

Devon Artis — Sat, 28 Feb 2009 19:32:56 -0000

Here my two cents I think wordpress ease of use make it more attractive in addition to all of the plugins for wordpress makes it a great choice.

But again if is just a simple blog you are looking for now if you are looking for something like CMS without going into using Joomla I would go with Drupal

Re: Authoring Blogs with Microsoft Word is Asking for Trouble

A Howard — Thu, 12 Feb 2009 17:43:38 -0000

Ok, here's a question I am desperate to find an answer to...

I have a LONG word document, that I would like to break into pieces and then, post to my blog. Now when I say long, I'm talking in excess of 100 pages.

I am excited that this will consitute a couple of months of blog posting, but I am wondering if there is any software that will take the document, split it up, and then schedule posting.

There is something called WhizFolder (I think) that has a watch command, so that anything that gets saved into the 'folder' then gets published. That is great, now I'm wondering if I will need to make two softwares work together, or is there a one software solution anyone has heard of....?
thanks

Nice plataform war, but i think if Joomla is better for the Drupal's work.
Wordpress x Joomla will be a good battle.

Simon ...

By using the "kitchen sink" icon, you can paste in Word into the WordPress editor ... We still pop over to the HTML tab to do some clean up, but the process is fairly quick and painless.

Does anybody know of a WYSIWYG editor that can strip the Microsoft nonsense tags and CSS?

Re: The Debt Relief Companies Blog-Powered Website Helps People with Money Issues

Jeefer — Tue, 02 Dec 2008 11:50:09 -0000

I like the way the site guides you through your options. It's a lot easier to take in rather than a huge list of debt solutions & the pros and cons of each one.

Thanks for the link!
