Aggregator NewsGator 2.0 Adds
Synchronization, Online Services
Integration, and Powerful Tools for
Developers 01/07/2004 06:31 PM

Latest Version of NewsGator, the Premier News Aggregator for Microsoft Outlook, Adds Support for Multiple Machines and Synchronization with Other Platforms and Mobile Devices, In Addition to Powerful Developer Tools and Other Capabilities.

LAS VEGAS and Denver, CO -- January 7, 2004 -- NewsGator 2.0, a new version of the popular news aggregator, was announced today by NewsGator Technologies at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas. NewsGator retrieves news from news sites, weblogs, newsgroups, and other information sources that support the RSS or Atom syndication formats, and automatically integrates the news items into Microsoft Outlook. RSS (Rich Site Summary) News Syndication is an emerging method of staying abreast with rapidly changing information and allows users to sort, organize, group and search news in multiple ways. Using NewsGator, users can read content offline making information readily accessible any time.

Major New features in NewsGator 2.0:

• NewsGator Online Services integration -- NewsGator 2.0 includes tight integration for the new NewsGator Online Services platform, which allows users to take advantage of powerful subscription synchronization capabilities. Users can also read related content displayed on the NewsPage, seamlessly access custom search feeds, and easily locate exclusive premium content.
  
• Subscription synchronization -- When used with the new NewsGator Online Services platform, NewsGator 2.0 allows users to synchronize their subscriptions between multiple machines, as well as other editions of NewsGator available with NewsGator Online Services.
  
• NewsGator Extension API -- NewsGator 2.0 has a powerful new API available for third-party developers, allowing them to build extensions to NewsGator to support numerous new scenarios. With this move, NewsGator extends beyond just an application, becoming a platform allowing developers to build a variety of new applications.
  
• Arbitrary RSS extension support -- NewsGator 2.0 is the first mainstream content aggregation tool to support arbitrary extensions in RSS or Atom feeds. Users or publishers can add arbitrary content into their feeds, and NewsGator is now able to process this custom data. Users can modify the rendering of items, add columns in Outlook, or build custom extension processors in .NET. For example, an extension can be written to add an appointment to the Outlook calendar when a meeting is announced in a feed. The possibilities are particularly exciting for businesses looking to integrate workflow applications with RSS and Atom feeds.

There are many other new capabilities and features in NewsGator 2.0, including support for enclosures and attachments in feeds, customizable rendering, and much more. And while NewsGator has always been tightly integrated with Internet Explorer to allow easy subscription to new feeds, NewsGator 2.0 enhances this integration with single-click subscription to feeds from a web site.

NewsGator 2.0 works with Microsoft Outlook 2000 or later, and will be available on January 19, 2004 from http://www.newsgator.com. Pricing is $29 (U.S.) per copy, with quantity discounts available.

Mmmm, torrents!

Mmmm, torrents! 04/27/2004 03:53 PM
So, I've been fiddling around with BitTorrent and all the variant clients. And... I like it. A lot. The shared downloading and easily resumable downloads make it a keen thing indeed. It turns out that BitTornado, one of the variant clients, does apply a global rate cap if you're serving multiple files up. This is good as Bittorrent clients'll eat all the available bandwidth, and then some, if given the chance. Not a huge problem for client-only systems, or systems with big upstream pipes, but for me with a smallish (192K) upstream pipe, well... running multiple torrents wouldn't be an...

Textbooks Hit The Torrents

Textbooks Hit The Torrents 09/07/2004 12:08 PM

Not all web piracy is the sexy stuff, like games and movies. Julis Schorzman notes that one of his college textbooks recently showed up as a BitTorrent.

The book the UW uses to teach Calculus showed up on Suprnova the other day. Here's the link. (Wish we had Bit Torrent around when I was a freshman in college. We had to pay all $140.00 for the [tome]! Spoiled kids!

You'd think someone would have to put a lot of work into pirating a calc book, since they contain so many symbols that an OCR system would have problems with.

Interesting side note: Julis' blog contains a tag (I think) he made up, <liblink>. Firefox reads that as <liblink>, resurrecting that Internet horror of ages past, the blink tag. Odd that such a progressive browser is so eager to enable useless old tags that it even does it where it isn't supposed to.

Copyfight debate of the century video
and audio torrents 04/19/2005 03:38 AM
Cory Doctorow: Last week's Cornell Debate between EFF senior IP attorney Fred Von Lohmann, copyfighting media studies prof Siva Vaidhyanathan, and counsel from the MPAA, RIAA, Napster 2 and Universal was astounding, the most engrossing three hours of video I've watched all month.

Unfortunately and inexplicably, this was only available as a crappy, dropout-prone Real stream from Cornell, which meant you couldn't load the audio onto your iPod or download the video to show your friends later.

Now someone's converted the video to something else (not sure what) and posted a .torrent, packaged with soemthing called "Matroska" that seems like a good way to add bookmarks and such to video (I'd be interested in knowing whether this packaging presents any barrier to someone who simply wants to download the video and watch it in her player of choice). There's also an Ogg of the audio available (I'd love to see this converted to MP3 for iPod users and posted as a Torrent!). Video Torrent Link, Ogg Torrent Link

*Following up on a previous BoingBoing post, an anonymous Microsoft employee says:

Responding to this: "Reader J. Hahn says, "I am particularly impressed with Amazon.com's Red Cross donation counter that proves Americans are not 'stingy.' Also, as a Mac user, I was proud to go to the apple.com site and see not one product ad on their front page - just links to aid and donation sites, and Microsoft had not one mention of the disaster."

Most of Microsoft's efforts regarding Tsunami relief is focused internally. MS offers a dollar for dollar charitable donation match to all FTE, and is doing everything it can to expidite the process of trying to get the money to where it will do the most good.

* Tsunami Outreach: Bloggers Without Borders' first international project launched last night. Link (Thanks, Sean)

* BoingBoing reader Nicholas Bentley says,

"Hello Xeni, We thought you might be interested in passing on the news of one person's great efforts for tsunami relief. We wanted to donate to a tsunami relief effort with our funds in a PayPal account but had difficulty finding an agency that took PayPal. Eventually we found Kevin McDonald's site where he is doing a fantastic job of collecting PayPal contributions and passing them on to AmeriCares (AmeriCares disaster relief has a 4-star rating from Charity Navigator.) Kevin has even persuaded AmeriCare's webmaster to see about accepting PayPal transfers direct in the near future."

*BoingBoing reader Chris Cummer says,

Family members of a close personal friend of mine are still missing in Thailand. Her father and brother have flown there to try and find them, as this Globe and Mail article details, but the help of the blog community would also be greatly appreciated. I've posted a request for help on my blog at Mi ssing in Khao Lak, Thailand. Hopefully someone might have some information for a Canadian family that's been living on the edge of grief for five days now.

Related: see this "missing persons" wiki page (Link ), and a blog devoted to linking missing persons with their loved ones: Link. And the Red Cross has launched a "Family Links" web page where family members can search for missing relatives’ names: Link. "The information is not verified or tracked by either the ICRC or the American Red Cross but is offered by the ICRC as a stand-alone internet tool for inquirers to use on their own."

* Reader Roberto says, "Every year at this time, I empty my jar full of loose change. But this year I discovered I could donate to the Red Cross (among other charities including UNICEF) from a Coinstar machine at my drugstore. And big kid that I am, I had fun playing with the machine." Link.

* Reader Chris Holland says,

I stumbled upon Austin's Blog who's done a fine job of gathering more videos. So earthlink homepage servers don't get creamed, I've created this torrent gathering 5 of the videos from his blog that weren't already covered in the previous torrent which is still available here. Remember, the more people click those torrent links, the easier and faster it is for everybody else to download them too. And try to keep the torrent opened for as long as possible even after you're done downloading. Big Kudos to prodigem's very easy-to-use torrent service. Link

* Andy Carvin says,

I've just set up a tsunami news digest using the news aggregator Kinja.com. The page contains latest news feeds and first-person blogs related to the tsunami disaster from around the globe. I'd like to see others add their own tsunami-related feeds to the site. If you have a news feed or blog that's focusing on the tsunami, or are reading one that you'd like to add to the digest, please visit the website and log on with the following info: login: tsunami-info / password: southasia. Once you've logged in, you can add a news source to the digest by pasting it into the "Add a Favorite" form field in the right column. Or, you can follow this shortcut.

* Among the many first-person accounts appearing on blogs: Sanjiva is an IBM employee from Sri Lanka, who is trying to build information systems to aid in locating missing persons, and help with medical resource logistics. Link.

* Jesse Krembs, President of The Hacker Foundation, tells BoingBoing:

Some of the folks here at the hacker foundation are assembling some code to build a big PHP/MYSQL database for locating survivors and doing tracing. It's not up yet but it will be soon. SurvivorLocationAssis tance.org & suvivors.hackerfoundation. org will be the address. You can see a preview as we build it here. It's still very rough but functional even at very low bandwidth."
