Robert Accettura's
Fun With Wordage

I’m now the 6th Robert on Yahoo. I haven’t even found myself on Google.
It’s going to take a lot to topple Robert Scoble.
Edit: No longer on the list as of 12/26/2005. Hmm.

Looks like Yahoo redid it’s TV guide, using some CSS. Interestingly looks like it might be a win for microformats. I’d love to know what someone like Tantek Çelik has to say about the new code. I’m no pro, but it looks like an improvement over the old system.

Ok, just when I was starting to think that Microsoft may be changing their ways and trying to act in good faith after them fixing their website the other day. Microsoft starts talking about pushing their sender ID stuff on us. Sender ID is Microsoft’s alternative to the other spam prevention techniques such [...]

Yahoo released their Firefox Toolbar!
