    In light of Google's new release of their RSS API. I noticed the word Mashup in there. I hated this term even used in music (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Grey_Album[^]) I really dislike these ridiculous terms used to spark Wall Street's interest. So I couldn't help myself and post this link. http://emptybottle.org/bullshit/[^] You'll need to replace the * with an i of course. ;)

        mashup (n.). A useless website made by screen-scraping two or more useless websites.

          Heh... I just find it funny that, after many years of hard-to-integrate GUI apps, we seem to be rediscovering the power present in so many traditional command-line tools. Of course, "mash-up" is far more trendy-sounding than "shell script"... :rolleyes:

          It appears that everybody is under the impression that I approve of the documentation. You probably also blame Ken Burns for supporting slavery.
