So a while ago somewhere I wrote about Project Echo (which is actually now called Atom, both which are crappy names) which is a way of doing XML syndication. Wow! Sounds like fun!

Not really. I guess they're doing a good job of making a good format, but when I visit that site, I am totally confused as to navigating that website. I can't figure out where to go, and the page is just plain ugly.

Why do technical websites have to be so friggin' ugly? Come on, guys ... give me a break.

I was going to syndicate Tabulas' data with their format, but the whole thing is still really shady right now. I just wish someone there would make some decisions so i could do something. They seem to be content squabbling amongst themselves over the most inane details (which purists will tell me are very important) ... and it seems the whole project is just kinda becoming ... well... complex.

In any case, I hope I can wrap up the XML thing today.
