Tom Morris

A pungent mix of programming, philosophy, pedanticism, procrastination, perplexity, peripheral political polemic, and platters of preposterousness.

Phil Wainewright (ZDNet) on RSS readers: “I’ve just realized that 2005 was the year I stopped using my RSS reader. I expect it was for many other people too. What’s more, I’m willing to predict that 2006 will be the year the RSS reader effectively dies out as a separate, standalone application”. I stopped using my RSS reader in 2004. Throughout 2005, I have used Bloglines and NetNewsWire (using the latter’s Bloglines API). As I’ve chronicled, I’ve just moved back to a desktop (or at least semi-desktop) RSS reader. Now, since I’m going to be using my laptop, I think it’s time I bought it some RAM.
