For example, it only aggregates blogs hosted on that server. We're actually looking at making some major improvements to MXNA (weblogs.macromedia.com/mxna) this year. We can then just have a dedicated feed for Adobe employee blogs. MD Unfortunately the blogs.adobe.com server isn’t very good – that’s why most of us ex-Macromedia folks have avoided it.

Now I wish more blogs would do it. Actually your ZDNet blog has been somewhat annoying as your first paragraph gives the Adobe Disclosure thing - so now i have to actually read your posts man.. you're killing me :P You know what would rock, New Yorks Time Reader style aggregator of blog posts with each respective blogs chosen ads on their respective posts.. :D Scott / Microsoft.

Now that CS3 is out the door there's funding for some long-overdue changes to the publishing system(s), but the aggregation system is not included in that. (I think that most blogs would benefit from getting their point across in the first 50 words, then following it up with additional text as an option... same way newspapers do it.) jd The Macromedia blogging system has been in maintainence mode for quite awhile.
