Read: NetNewsWire 5 Feature Requests

I first used NetNewsWire back in 2002, really started using in in 2005 stopped when it left Brent Simmons’ hands.

Listened Jim Groom from Spreaker
Gettin' Air Season 3 Premiere with Jim Groom @jimgroom! Jim has been central a central figure in hugely influential educational technology movements/ideas/things like #ds106, #edupunk, and Domain of One's Own (#DoOO). And now he is co-founder of a shining beacon of educational technology done right in @ReclaimHosting. But why are they running a VHS store in Fredericksburg, VA?

@jimgroom is always worth a listen, some #ds106 nostalgia (always worth thinking ‘n taking about #DS106) and fascinating stuff around opensource and the implications of depending on a closed technology.
