The new version of Buck's Woodside is on the air. Now we have to put some new content on there! What a trip this is going to be.

whois.userland.com got some new friendly features this morning.

Frontier users can download whois.root. It's a website in a guest database. It requires mainResponder to run. If you don't know what that is, stay tuned.

David Detlefsen wants to do XML-RPC from the Unix shell.

At 7:46PM Pacific, the Seattle Times home page is broken. It says "Forbidden. Your client is not allowed to access the requested object." Major real-time link-rot!

Dan Gillmor: Last-minute deal what you'd expect from Intel.

Builder.com: Working in a Web Group.

InfoWorld: Microsoft invests in Internet copy protection.

MacWEEK: Apps for Mac OS X Server. Hmmm. No familiar names there.
