Congratulations to the FeedBurner guys

Friday, June 1st, 2007

It’s officially official, FeedBurner has been acquired by Google. Congrats to those guys! Adam and I met some of the FeedBurner guys out in Chicago some time ago and had dinner with their CTO, Eric Lunt, at a great ribs place. Nice guys, congrats to all involved!
Here’s the FeedBurner private label widget we made for […]

Give us your outlines, your feeds, your collected reading lists longing to be free…

Wednesday, March 7th, 2007

Check out Grazr.com, we’ve taught it to do some new tricks! One of the support questions we’ve gotten many times is, “yes I realize my desktop feed reader outputs OPML, but where can I put it so that grazr can use it?” (well I’m paraphrasing). Up until know we haven’t had a very good answer […]

Enabling Attention Transactions

Tuesday, October 24th, 2006

Matt Terenzio has some interesting words about being a media company versus an “attention company”. (He lists Grazr as an attention enabler in his post.)

Grazr 1.0 release

Tuesday, September 19th, 2006

Well I’m excited to announce our 1.0 release! We’ve got new code and a whole new look to the website, check it out! The site design was created by Josh Porter and I think he did a really great job (thanks Josh!).
The preview code has been moved to our live servers as our 1.0 […]

Amazing, Grazr on Opera Mobile!

Thursday, April 6th, 2006

It has to be one of the coolest things I’ve seen. Russell Beattie posted his desire to see Grazr run on a mobile device. Then Johnathan Share went ahead and did it! He’s running Grazr using Opera Mobile, which supports Ajax, along with some tweaks. Very, very, cool.
I’ve been looking into the mobile space […]

Unconference / Camp

Tuesday, April 4th, 2006

Grazr is going to OPML camp! I’ve signed up to do some sort of information sharing and/or presentation regarding OPML and Grazr. I’ve never attended an unconference / camp so I’m excited for this new experience.
Whether you believe in OPML as a format or not (sounds almost religious doesn’t it?) I think meeting and […]

Mockup

Sunday, April 2nd, 2006

Russell Beattie has a cool mockup of a mobile devices version of Grazr. It’s cool to see this out ‘in the wild’ and it’s definitely one of the vectors we’re exploring. Thanks for the link Russell!

Another use

Sunday, April 2nd, 2006

James E. Lee has a nice post on using
Grazr as a service. This was definitely one of the uses I had in mind for Grazr so it’s nice to see it being discussed.
Note on Alpha v7: I ran into some issues with the experimental code so I’m running through some fixes before integrating […]

New Link

Monday, March 27th, 2006

Grazr got a reference from Ajaxian today! I’ve been reading Ajaxian for a few months now and I think they do a great job covering javascript, Ajax and related tech. It’s pretty neat to get a mention, thanks guys! They make light of the missing ‘e’ in the name and honestly it *was* supposed to […]

Unique Uses

Friday, March 24th, 2006

The response to Grazr continues to amaze me. Seeing different writeups like these by Marshall Kirkpatrick, Shel Holtz, Solomon Duskis, and Robin Good are really great!
What I find most interesting are all of the different uses people are dreaming up for something like Grazr. It definitely motivates me to not let people down.
A couple […]
