Lazyness, messiness and structure

Saturday, December 17th, 2005

I’m happy to see Stowe use intelligent,well thought out reasoning in being skeptical about Structured Blogging.

Wednesday, December 14th, 2005

I have to say - Greg Yardley’s reaction drew a smile.
How paranoid can one man get? Clearly Greg is right up there on the scale of martydom. God bless you dude. Whatever.
Meanwhile others seem to like it. Others were blown away by our ability to get it together in such a [...]
