"You want to keep an eye on your Amazon.com wishlist or a particular Amazon.com/de/co.uk item, want to be informed whether and how much the price has been changed, but don't have the time?

Watchcow.net to the rescue! This simple and handy service allows you to passively watch single Amazon products and entire wishlists in your newsreader, such as Bloglines (web), NetNewsWire (Mac), NewsFire (Mac) or FeedDaemon (Windows), just to name a few. It works with every newsreader/-aggregator that supports ATOM feeds. Which, incidently, means pretty much all of them."

Another great service from Carlo Zottmann!

I've created a Perl script that generates an RSS feed from your Amazon wishlist contents, including prices and Amazon book links. Fixed the ISBN/ASIN bug, now defaults book links to ISBN.nu instead of Amazon (for cheaper purchasing).

Aggregator inside aggregator


Aggregator inside aggregator 09/21/2004 10:57 PM
You know whenever people post screenshots of emulators, how it can be weird to see Windows running on a Mac? (Even weirder if you actually use an emulator, until you get used to it.)

Here’s a similar side effect of having embedded a browser in NetNewsWire. (Click for full-size screen shots.)

Bloglines running inside
NetNewsWire's browserRadio UserLand. running inside
NetNewsWire's browser

Even though it’s odd, there’s actually a point to it—we discovered that some people use multiple aggregators. One for fun stuff and one for work, that kind of thing.

If one is browser-based and the other embeds a browser, then, well, hey, you’ve got something like the above.

Add to the RSS Wishlist


Add to the RSS Wishlist 06/29/2004 12:57 AM
Harold Check is doing a reality check of what's missing from the RSSphere and he's cataloging The RSS Wishlist. Some samples:

"It may seem obvious to readers of this particular blog that just about anything on the web that changes, whether frequently or infrequently, should have an associated feed. Readers all over rejoice when a major publication decides to hop onboard the syndication freight train. And beyond your typical publications, there are hundreds of innovative services that are just waiting to be remixed with some RSS flavor. 

At Supernova, Scott Rosenberg pointed out that privacy policies are a perfect candidate for RSS feeds. I second that. I also want KEXP playlists to be updated hourly. And I’d like car recall notices, too. And coupons for businesses in my ZIP code. And MetaCritic. And Aquarius Records new releases. And so on, and so on…

Nick Bradbury: CNN.com, The Onion, and PythOnline....

Michael Sippey: 'Until my entire family gets their act together and starts using Flickr for photo sharing, I want an RSS feed from Ofoto of new pics of my nieces, nephews and cousins.  That feed could be sucked up by a screen saver, or scripted to rotate as my desktop background, or have one every N photos auto-shipped to the photo printer.'

Jason Kottke: The New Yorker

So, what do you want to become available via RSS? Leave your requests in a comment. If you really wow me, you might just get a gmail invitation...." [The RSS Weblog]

My greatest wish - my local newspapers. Hopefully, the directory of my local library and I will be talking to them soon to turn on a few light bulbs. Then I want feeds for grant offerings of relevance to my job. Then, of course, I want feeds from my online catalog!!!!!

"The JL421 Badonkadonk is a completely unique, extremely rare land vehicle and battle tank.

Standard drive is an air-cooled, 6hp Tecumseh gasoline (unleaded only) engine, with centrifugal clutch, giving the Donk a top speed of 40 mph. This vehicle is not licensed for use on public roads, and is intended as a recreational vehicle only.

"Since ALA, we all have known that the Canadian library schools are really putting out some top librarian talent. But who knew they had a fashion sense as well. The students from the SLIS at Dalhousie University in Halifax, Nova Scotia are hawking some mighty fine librarian t-shirts, possibly ones even too racy to wear to work. And, 'action figure' aside, my favorite one has to be the NLA shirt." [librarian.net]

Filelist and Wishlist


Filelist and Wishlist 05/09/2004 07:55 PM

My recent burst of interest in P2P networks stems from the idea of sharing wishlists which I mentioned in my comment about CleverCactus Share.  Diego expressed some enthusiasm about the idea so there is a good chance it will appear in ClearCactus Share.

But my mind is already leaping forward exploring generalizations and mutations of the basic idea of sharing and seemlessly integrating the capability into the operating system.  To power this exploration, I am asking questions like:

  • What is a file?
  • What does it mean to share?
  • How can I share something without having it?
  • How can I share nameless, locationless, temporary, and formless objects?
  • What if everything is shared by default?
  • What if bots are loosened into the shared space?

Many of the answers seem to point to a need to review some basic assumptions pounded into us by file systems and databases like names, locations, queries, etc.

If you drag a file from here to there, people expect the object to move from here to there and also expect the operation to take some time.

If the object is a wish, meaning it will arrive sometime in the future, dragging it from here to there could mean it should be moved there when it arrives.  That's like an instruction.  But people usually don't give instructions to empty air.  Is it better to introduce a bot-like objects or should future actions or 'promises' be turned into an object?

There is also the problem of having too many P2P networks.  They can be abstracted or hidden behind other shapes and forms.  At that point, even services like eBay and Amazon can be thrown into the mesh.  An auction involves someone wanting to sell something they either own or can provide.  Drag and drop this from here to there and eventually a real-world object is 'downloaded' to someone's doorstep.  All this is nice except abstraction and usuability don't often walk hand-in-hand.

I know that I am overstepping the bounds of practicality in many areas, but overreaching is often useful when searching through the solution space.  Anyway, these are kind of things I occupy weekends with these days.

Wishlist: Google Newsreader 06/19/2002 01:10 PM
David Cancel writes in to say that he'd be willing to pay a monthly/yearly fee to be able to read the Google newsgroups with a regular newsreader. Unfortunately, as stated in the FAQ, this is not currently possible. I agree, there are many nice newsreaders which are more convenient for comprehensive newsgroup reading (as opposed to simply searching, which Google Groups is great at) which I would like to use to read these groups. As it stands, I can't remember to go back to the websites and check them each day.

Ali G comedian Sacha Baron Cohen's latest Channel 4 show, 'Borat's Television Programme', is being investigated by TV watchdogs following complaints about a sketch featuring an anti-Semitic song titled 'Throw the Jew down the well'.

A Channel 4 spokesman said: "Sacha Baron Cohen's humour is ironic and actually highlights bigotry and ignorance." The irony being that Baron is himself a Jew.
