B.L. Still Doesn't Get It

+ Posted by Josh Hallett on 06.12.05 // 01:27 PM

The dead horse has risen from the grave. We're back to the full/partial feed meme. What's great about the blogosphere is that often you find somebody that says almost the exact same thing you were thinking (often times with a bit more depth). In my case it was three people.

All the posts are in response to B.L. Ochman's argument against full-text feeds.

First up is Shel Holtz - "I found it interesting when my friend BL Ochman posted five reasons for producing partial text feeds, I disagreed with every one of them."

Next round was Allan Jenkins - "If you're a reader, and you think B. L. is arguing your case when she prompts for truncated feeds... think again. She's thinking entirely after her own interests. Not your interests"

Finally Neville Hobson - "BL's argument for not publishing full content in the RSS feed is an open invitation for easy dismemberment."

Update: I have removed a stupid and mean comment that I ended this post with. It was uncalled for an inconsiderate. I apologize to B.L.

B.L. also noted that she has extended the amount of content she posts in her RSS feed.

Visitor Comments

Josh: You want to disagree with my post on RSS, go ahead. You might want to also note that I increased my feed to 500 words.

But you want to get nasty and personal and judgmental, and talk about my photo, that's a whole other story. I don't participate in cat fights.

B.L. I apologize, the comment has been removed.
