Jan Ullrich on the Verge of Jumping
And come on, now let's finally settle this once and for all, I want to know whether Ullrich will ride the Tour or not. That Mr. Dahms must be a strange fellow ...

Juice reduction
Stirring the shit - I think that's quite an apt description. I also like this one: And through some fluke of their evil software, they seem to get indexed really fast [...] - could someone please show me this fluke of my evil software? I'd like to know what it looks like

(re)StructuredText
In response to my colleague's question (since he still doesn't enable comments on his posts and his forum requires registration and I don't want to sign up
): (re) Structured-Text is used with Python DocUtils. This is also used in the Python Desktop Server so that I don't have to write content in HTML. The Python Desktop Server also includes a module StructuredText.py that can be used for standalone deployment - it does have minimal dependencies on the Python Desktop Server, but these are automatically disabled when used standalone (it's mainly about enrichment and automatic linking to content from the weblog tool - so it could also be used in other projects). In general, I can only recommend (re) StructuredText, it's very convenient - in my opinion the most advanced text-to-HTML converter currently available for Python. There is a released version 0.2 and a CVS version 0.3 - the Python Desktop Server is based on the 0.2 version, so when trying out the module, make sure to use the correct version!
For the Python Desktop Server, on the other hand, the CVS version of the StructuredText.py module should be used because it contains massive changes from Garth T. Kidd that significantly expand the functionality - the previous release version of the Python Desktop Server still has an HTML converter I built myself with reduced functionality.

Will Google block weblogs?
Hmm. There are already two pure blog search engines based on blog content (more precisely on RSS feeds) (http://feedster.com and http://rss-search.com). And http://daypop.comm as well as http://popdex.com and certainly several other blog tools also offer searches on blog content (in that case probably on normal web content). So Google would just be another one in that regard. The idea isn't really new. However, separating blogs from the main index would be fatal - because blogs are often more than just the blog itself. Not all content is offered there for syndication and is therefore available in RSS form (for example, the Python Desktop Server is to my knowledge the only blogging tool that creates an RSS feed for stories as well - with Radio, stories remain excluded from the RSS feed).
Let's see how it continues and what will ultimately actually be implemented.
