I like open source stuff. I like standards. Myspace is neither. But fortunately some people are able to scrape content and make it usable for the world.
If you find someone’s blog you like make this: http://blog.myspace.com/zieak but replace my name with the blog you’re interested in following. Copy that into this website http://weblog.randomchaos.com/myspace/ and the result will be valid rss.
If you are not using rss readers you should. a reader will make it so you don’t have to log into a site to view the content. I have my homepage set to google. I used the customize google option and now my homepage shows news headlines, the weather, most recent posts on forums i read, most recent comments on my weblog, all kinds of dynamic content. If you use thunderbird for email (which you really should) then you can set that up so that new posts arrive in your mail as if someone emailed them to you.

That reminds me that i was asking someone to serve on a board recently and they said “no” based on how busy their schedule was. I said “i wish i could say know sometimes. See? I can’t even write it!” I thought it was clever. I amuse myself often though.
