Generally "planets" just aggregate existing feeds, they don't provide services to create the feeds. A feed URL is really just a URL to a RSS-formatted resource. (Most content management systems, e.g. Drupal or Joomla provide a number of feed URL for [subsets of] the content; there are also free "weblog" services that also give you a feed URL.) Hackergotchi is stupid slang for a small image that can be placed beside your feed items, I'm not entirely sure what the etymology of it is. If we wanted to, I suppose we could provide weblog services to developers. Maybe on git-scm.com or something. I'm just thinking out loud here, though. I don't even know if there's real interest in something like that. And personally, I'd rather be writing patches than maintaining a Drupal installation on devblog.git-scm.com or whatever. -- Boyd Stephen Smith Jr. ,= ,-_-. =. bss@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx ((_/)o o(\_)) ICQ: 514984 YM/AIM: DaTwinkDaddy `-'(. .)`-' http://iguanasuicide.net/ \_/
