A little piece of happiness is knowing you're not completely alone in the world...




use constant PROXY => "http://www.decafbad.com/xrfp/memepool.cgi";



use constant METHOD => "memepool.filterData";







my $text = "this is the network of our disconnect";



my $kw = "aaronland,perl,goofy";







my $xmlrpc = XMLRPC::Lite->new()->proxy(PROXY);



my $res = $xmlrpc->call(METHOD,$text,undef,{keywords=>$kw});







print $res->result()->{data};



Thanks Les!

Dan Gillmor : "My readers know more than I do;

That is not a threat, but rather an opportunity; We can use this together to create something ... educating all of us" No shit, Sherlock? Meanwhile, Dale Peskin posits that :
Our stories will take us beyond convergence to emergence. There, news becomes the product of a universally distributed intelligence that develops from an interconnected society enabled by interactive media. It occurs in real time, self-regulating, constantly enhanced. The connections enabled by media lead to mutual recognition and enrichment of individuals, rather than a cult of communities and institutions.
You know, it is refreshing to see such enthuastic exercises in hyperbole, crafted to a true artform during the mid-90s, make a comeback but it's just candy. So far, the analogies have been so piss-poor and the degree of stating the obvious so high that it's hard not to see this as little more than a way for people to spin their way into the ivory tower. After all, what the fuck is the point of having, or being, a "domain expert" in this goofy, story-licious, post-modern magic kingdom that's being described?

Nicholas Riley : WebDAV tool for Frontier/Radio

"allows Frontier's Website Framework and Manila static rendering output, and Radio UserLand upstreaming via WebDAV. It provides limited support for WebDAV as specified by RFC 2518. The PUT, DELETE and MKCOL methods, and basic HTTP authentication only are supported. (That means: use it on a secure network or wrap it securely)." I had no idea. I'm pretty surprised, actually, that the UserLand folk didn't make a bigger deal about this.
