Thanks Greg -- glad we could have you!

The software I mentioned that I liked is Sam Ruby's 'Planet Venus'.
It's a handy 'river of news' type feed reader that uses Python and
cron to update a page with the latest entries from any RSS data source.

Here's a link to the software:

And here's a sample of what my feed looks like:

We also spent a lot of time talking aobut Linode, which seems to be
very popular among UFOnians:
