Me : Magic Aaronland Categories SOAP Interface

This has been a long time coming and still very much subject to change, as I work out the inevitable bugs. But since the rest of the world seems to be jumping on the categories bandwagon, I thought people might enjoy using mine. Eventually there will be other methods and an XMLRPC interface, but for now I'm more interested in eating dinner.

  print join("\n",@{SOAP::Lite->new()



                    ->proxy("http://aaronland.info/soap")



                    ->uri("/Weblog")



                    ->categories()



                    ->result()



                    });

Philip Hunter : The Management of Content - Universities and the Electronic Publishing Revolution.

"In other words, whatever publishing model underlies the development and maintenance of large scalable Web services in the Higher Education sector, it isn't fully realised in the technology used to deliver the services. Much of what is delivered via the Web still involves a good deal of manual activity. This half-way house position isn't a place where Web Managers and Editors want to be. So it is quite odd that this is where we are, among a community which has been so intimately involved in the early development of the Web."

[Unix] Ken Thompson, principal inventor of Unix. In the early days he used to hand-cut distribution tapes, often with a note that read "Love, ken". Old-timers still use his first name (sometimes uncapitalized, because it's a login name and mail address) in third-person reference; it is widely understood (on Usenet, in particular) that without a last name `Ken' refers only to Ken Thompson. Similarly, Dennis without last name means Dennis Ritchie (and he is often known as dmr). See also {demigod}, {{Unix}}. 2. A flaming user. This was originated by the Software Support group at Symbolics because the two greatest flamers in the user community were both named Ken. | source : foldoc | ken /ken/ 1. {Ken Thompson} 2.
