latest improvements of the javascript rss box viewer: "compact view" switch to omit the item description (if possible, ie. if there's an item title) of each channel item. this way you only get the titles as links to the appropriate story. moreover, i have implemented support for some dublin core tags in rss 1.0, e.g. dc:creator and dc:date.

update: additionally, in "compact view" also no rss image is displayed – even if it should be available.

"the simplest surrealist act consists of dashing down into the street, pistol in hand, and firing blindly, as fast as you can pull the trigger, into the crowd." – andré breton, "second manifesto of surrealism".

hmm "one last picture from london" sounds too pathetic, so i just call this link what a nice poster! ok. see you in vienna!

if you feel sad and understand german (at least some swear words) you might listen to some satirebeschimpfungen (also available on cd).

i wonder if this is correctly written according to the international phonetic alphabet...?

dave winer: "what will become of freedom? – astonishing new laws are being passed and executive orders issued that change our way of life in the usa". and not only there.
