Feed Description: James Robertson comments on Cincom Smalltalk, the Smalltalk development community, and IT trends and issues in general.
This is fascinating. Reading journalists reporting on technology issues I know something about makes me really, really start to wonder about reporting in general. This paragraph:
Atom also allows any comments that are posted to a blogging site by readers to be syndicated, unlike RSS, which only allows the blogs themselves to be sent out as alerts.
is just awe inspiring in its cluelessness. RSS doesn't allow syndication of comments? I guess I don't really read Sam Ruby's comment feed then. And comments aren't actually embedded in my feed either. And apparently, the wfw comment module doesn't exist. I really wish reporters knew how to use Google. This reporter gets paid to be this publically uninformed?
