My day is wide

Tuesday | November 13, 2007 | 2:41 pm  

Just read a great post on the differences between being a programming and being a manager of programmers.

My days have become increasingly wide, I’d like to think my developers days are deeper.

And while I do long for days full of implementation details, there are also days, like today, that it’d be nice not to worry about Unix permissioning schemes.

Quick RSS observation

Tuesday | November 6, 2007 | 1:35 pm  

It seems FeedBurner is having some issues today.

So at lunch today, my usual but infrequent time for perusing my too-large subscription list in Google Reader, I was only able to read the full entries on about 25% of the blogs I read. It appears that their link redirector (and recorder) was not working for me… so URLs such as this wouldn’t work.

Not knocking FeedBurner but a couple of observations:

• The Internet is all about not centralizing and it’s more robust for it
• With FeedBurner becoming a central source for RSS feed serving, it becomes a pretty critical piece of infrastructure for a lot of folks

Nothing terribly insightful…
