Cool newness.
Some cool updates have been made to DavidMeade.com recently.
You’ll no doubt have noticed the new ‘in-line’ video players. I hope that’s working well for all of you. Please let me know if you have problems seeing the video.
You may have also noticed the availability of comment RSS feeds. This allows guests to receive notifications of replies without having to register or sign up with an email address.
One of the cooler things that I’ve been meaning to do for a long time and finally got around to doing is making all of the DavidMeade.com links much easier to remember.
For example, if you wanted to see all the video blogs, you could go to:
http://www.davidmeade.com/tags/Video+Blog
If you wanted to subscribe to DavidMeade.com, you could use the feed URL:
http://www.davidmeade.com/feed
If you wanted to open DavidMeade.com in iTunes, you could use the URL:
http://www.davidmeade.com/itunes
The cool part here is that none of these files actually exist, so you can pretty much make them up. So if you wanted to … for example … see all posts where I’ve tagged it with “Chicago”, you might try:
http://www.davidmeade.com/tags/Chicago
And if you wanted an RSS feed for only posts tagged “Chicago” you might try:
http://www.davidmeade.com/tags/Chicago/feed
Doug has launched a new site, and Kevin is about to. Once all that is done, I hope to get them to work with me on a collaborative project.
There have been other ‘behind the scenes’ changes, but I wont bore you with them. Just remember … let me know if you find a bug!

Hey! I guess it’s been so long since I’ve checked in that the whole website has changed. So my log-in no longer exists. I, too, was once registered on the awesome, amazing, artistic DavidMeade.com as one of that fine company of well-named leader-type people. Alas, I take comfort that our name is being carried on with excellence into the future. Merry Christmas — David Meade.
