Online Journalism Review: Content Management for the Masses. Some recent announcements by CMS providers signal particularly good things for the small publisher or lone journalist looking to enhance (or establish) their Web presence. If the current trend continues, low budget news sites soon could enjoy systems that rival the best money can buy today. [Tomalak’s Realm]

John Rhodes: “Microsoft doesn’t care much about shared source or Smart Tags and we are wasting our time following their marketing trail.”
Although Dave
Winer seems to think that Microsoft "dropped
a bombshell" with their .Net
shared source announcement, I am not taking my eye off the ball. While
we bow to Scoble because he
figured everything
out, I am not going to take my eye off the ball. While people flock to
Slashdot to read
the story and comment on it, I am not going to take my eye off the ball.
While people continue to point to the original story on O’Reilly and shake
their stunned
heads, I am not going to take my eyes off the ball.
Listen to me very
closely. Shared source is trivial. Smart tags are trivial. No big deal. What
does Microsoft want? Here is the mind bomb: Microsoft’s business
model no longer revolves around software. Instead, it revolves around
services, transactions, and extracting value from activity on the
internet.

ZDNet: by David Coursey, Executive Editor,Microsoft to me: We’re turning off your Office.
A funny thing happened on the way to PC Expo: Microsoft killed my copy of Office. Or at least that’s what the error message said, threatening me with something called “Reduced Functionality Mode” if I didn’t immediately insert my original Office disc and have my software reactivated.
“If you don’t perform the reactivation steps, Microsoft Office will go into Reduced Functionality Mode. In that mode you will not be able to save modifications to documents, or create a new document, and additional functionality may be reduced” said the “help” screen attached to the error message. (The error itself could not be copied and pasted so I didn’t save the exact language; I must say I was a little stunned).

Steve Gillmor interviews Adam Bosworth on the future of XML. “If someone sends you a SOAP message and you want to know how to send them back a message, there’s no standard yet to say how to send them something back.” [Scripting News]

Sun’s Anne Thomas-Manes recommends that Java developers do use SOAP. There’s already a lot of interop. Get out from behind the wall of RMI and integrate with apps written in other languages and environments. And thanks for the pointer to our SOAP developers directory! Perfect example of romance. Links are the flowers of developer relations on the Web. Right on. [Scripting News]
