March of Milestones — Two Week Review

First User-Created (Pre-API) ListMixer Hack!

This is great. Jonathan Brodsky emailed me yesterday about an applescript hack he created that marries netNewsWire with ListMixer. This was tricky because I haven’t yet created a handy API — he reverse engineered the LM submit form and used curl -d to pass in his data. So my hat is off to him for his trouble.

And I do promise a basic API soon. Please email me with your wishlist. Right now I envision GET-styled write access, and offering JSON for read access. I would also add options to the RSS 1.0 to enable finer-grained XML read access. Your thoughts?

First Podcast Featuring ListMixer!

ListMixer was promoted into the top 10% by SturgeonsLaw.com. There’s something about a podcast that impresses me. I think it’s the planning, trouble and time that must go into a good podcast. Thank you, R. Francis Smith.

Two Weeks: Over 1000 Accounts, Over 5000 Links

Since ListMixer went live on 2/21 (two weeks ago), users have created over 1000 accounts and over 5000 links. That’s about 350 links per day! Thank you for making ListMixer a success. Please keep in touch and let me know how I could make it better.

    Andrew- You can learn to use ListMixer by reading its front page. Or did you mean something else?
