I personally use Radio and FM for my Blog (Weblog) that is hosting on Userland.
I plan to move to my own hosted URL soon. Radio is a personal content management client tool, that has themes that can be used to construct a weblog. It is the one most pro's like because the content can be FTPed to a webserver and it looks professional. It formats all its information in XML syle sheets, and comes with a built-in News Aggregator. News Aggregator use URL's to pull in XML formatted data and make them look like post. Sites like Active win, and Neowin are supporting RSS 2.0 feeds. Basically it is a new way to format and share your news or personal web log with others. Here is a good book on RSS 2.0 format http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/consynrss/ Here is the link to Radio and FM. http://www.userland.com I personally want all the vendors to support RSS 2.0 news feeds about product releases, and build releases, bugs, etc. I am currently building a AD Blog for our Operations Group, This blog will link our Aelita Data Administration tools with our NETPRO data administrator tools. I am also encouraging all the vendors that support AD and Exchange 2000 Infrastructure and Data admin tools to support N-tier architecture designs, and reporting via CDO EMAIL and RSS News feeds. We currently don't hook up our stuff to Tivoli, CA, or HP Openview. These tools are too expensive, and a simple tool is much more flexible. I encourage more of you to setup a blog, and what is interesting is that if you were to use Gator (A Outlook news aggregator plug-in) you could send format email from this list into a RSS Newsfeed. BLOGS and XML are the future!

How does it help to find this information? What type of client would I need? What are the best sources for Active Directory type information? My ignorance is showing --- I hope folks don't mind that I'm looking for the light here...
