Video Feed, redux
I just watched Episode 20 of CommandN on the train and they talk about the del.icio.us trick that I talked about a few weeks ago. As they were talking about it, I was almost getting excited that they were going to mention me. Then I remembered that I only have 23 readers. Lifehacker, a very cool site, had very similar info on the topic. Of course, I made my post like a week before they did and some of the commenters to that post had figured this out in August or even earlier.
The one thing that still bothers me is that I can’t seem to figure out how to get multiple media types like movies & mp3 files together in the same feed. A friend of mine, Dan, went and posted an mp3 file to my del.icio.us tag but it didn’t come through my feed yet because the feed is using the “media” macro which del.icio.us defines as all “movie” files (like mov, avi, mpg, etc.). Maybe I’ll just set up an mp3 feed on the same tag.
I highly recommend CommandN. It’s fun to watch and they consistently point me towards very interesting sites.
In particular, I learned about a FireFox extension called Tab X which puts a close X on each tab. This is much more convenient than right-clicking and closing the tabs that way. See here:
