Irony
Mark Pilgrim notes that NetNewsWire has taken over the #1 spot as the most-used aggregator reading his site.

When I read that, I laughed, because here’s the irony—on this site, on my own personal weblog, Radio UserLand rather than NetNewsWire is the most-used aggregator.

(Check out the referers page.)

But you know what? It’s all good.

Though Radio and NetNewsWire have some overlapping functionality, the two apps can also be seen as complementary. I plan to develop this further in the pro version, which will be scriptable and will include the ability to publish to Radio weblogs.

On Joel on Software
John Gruber writes about developing for Macs versus developing for Windows: “All I’m saying is this: amongst computer users who actually buy software, Mac users comprise a signficantly larger chunk than 4 percent. Significantly.”

Erin apologizes
Erin Clerico: “I got a little cranky with someone who I felt was encroaching on the Weblogger name and I made some reckless threats about legal action as a remedy. I have and do admit that I was wrong...”

This site and ranchero.com are both hosted by Erin’s company Weblogger.com.

It’s an absolute pleasure having Weblogger.com as my host. Erin provides great service when I need help.

My sites stay up and stay fast. No funny business.

Do I recommend Weblogger.com to folks looking for a host? Hell yes.
