RSS-Planet newsmap
I start out doing one thing and very soon it turns completely on it’s ear and becomes a project of completely different nature.Like this project for example, it started out as an experiment from an article about using one text document to run everything and next thing I know, I’m back at the desktop/browser question. Which leads me into new directions on the same probelm.
The first inroads I made was with RSS-Planet. Martin Doege coded the idea into reality, now this idea is even more ambitious than the last. It is something that I feel pretty certain that lots of peolee are already working towards this idea. It feels really good to have the idea. The only thing I have to wonder about it if I will be able to come up with the skill set to complete the task. I want to turn the whole concept into a Firefox extension, yet Firefox is programmed in C/C++. I have no idea where to start with those languages, except at the beginning.
Now, we are charging at this task from a completely different directions to connect xplanet/rss planet as a web page for the site. Then perhaps it can get dreamed up to a really big, big, big proportion. For now it is very exciting to get this going and heading off into new areas. It is not complete in anyway shape or form, but it has begun. we are now up to version 1.3
