Another administrative note. I promise to get back to food writing soon. Like in the next day or two.
- Conversion Limbo
This conversion from Blogger to WordPress isn't going very well. The main problem at this point is that Blogger's export of posts cuts off after about 3 megs, or about one-eighth of my content. Meanwhile, Google has taken away my ability to post...
- Switching To Wordpress
Just letting you all know that I'm finally moving my blog from Blogger (I know!) to WordPress. So the site may look funky off and on. Bear with me, please. Having programmer-friendly blogging software will be great (and, besides, Blogger is removing...

An Obsession with Food has freed me to write on any number of food-related topics and experiment with different writing styles. But the title constrains me as well: It permits little in the way of non-food thoughts. So, I've started a new blog. An...

My friend Russell went to Web 2.0, and sat next to a reporter in one session. They started talking about RSS, and the reporter wrote a story about this technology. To illustrate Russell's breadth of reading material, the reporter called out a couple...
- Un-new Year's Resolutions
I don't make New Year's resolutions. I always figure that I'm reasonably good about making changes at other points of the year, so why make a point of it on January 1? But this year the changes I want to make happened to take place around...

Syndication
Another administrative note. I promise to get back to food writing soon. Like in the next day or two.
Anyway, I've set up a syndication feed for this site. Point your favorite aggregrator software to http:/www.obsessionwithfood.com/site-feed.rss.
Don't know what syndication is, at least in this context? Basically it means that I publish posts in a well-known format. People around the universe run pieces of software called aggregators, which poll that person's favorite streams, and let them know when new content has appeared. RSS (the format I use) is extremely lame, but this is from someone who spent 3 years working with ICE, a high-end syndication protocol. I might be biased. At any rate, it's easy to implement, since Blogger does the work for me.
