Just thought I would say welcome to your new site! I like it... :)
Ps. Quick reminder... The London girly geek dinner II is on the 11th October at the Texas Embassy! :)
Just thought I would point it out... and be cheeky and do a bit of blogvertising... (is that a word yet?) It's not my usual style but hey! We have Eileen Brown (MS Evangelist) and Adriana Cronin-Lukas (Big Blog Company) talking on blogging in the business environment!
Look out for the podcast after the event and the reviews from the girls... I will see if I can get the girls to your Geek Dinner... even out those numbers a bit ;)

Nice choice of blog engine and site design. WordPress themes are so easy to customise - my site originally used the 'Connections' theme too. Good luck with the new blog.

To answer BillyG - there is no Feed link yet - in the meantime you can see the uri for the feed if you view the source of the site. For RSS 2 it is http://scobleizer.wordpress.com/feed/
happy to have you at wordpress.com! welcome to wordpress!

Just read your post at WebproNews about the comparison search of MSN Google and Yahoo, didnt really note too much what you had to say as one persons view is..well you know the rest.
What i did notice was that MSNs search description came from Zeal and not actually the web pages description, which i did feel weird about!

You are amazing and I will continue to read your posts no matter where you go. You may even convince me to switch too.

Since then i have been following urs and glad to c you u in ur new home . Congratulations!!
Scoble, you are going to change/modify change that theme, right?
I think I have seen that tunnel on like a dozen WP blogs.

Looks good, but you might want to make the trackback link a little more obvious. I almost said I wish you had activated trackbacks, and then I found it

It might be good to at least forward your RSS feeds to scob.wp.com/feed/ so that readers can continue uninterrupted!

Hey! Nice new digs!
As a few have noticed before me, there is no RSS connection here. Gonna have the cable guy do it for ya? Good luck on the appointment!
I think this thing over here- see that there? - is the RSS plug. Now, if you can just get the right kind of connector, we won't have to wait for the installer.
Got a socket wrench?

Oh, and while I'm here, there's somebody that wants me to interview you, thinks you're the greatest, not that I disagree at all. Not one bit.
I think the take on this interview is that you're like number one. So my first question would be -- what the heck, it is my first question -- Who's number two? Who do you think is the next best blogger. No false modesty, just who's best besides you? You've got my address, e-mail me.
Oh, and here's a topic that you might be interested in: http://wordpress.org/tags/rss. Hey! This is a class place. You can even subscribe to the topic. Pretty swanky.
Just thought I should help with the movin', since I'm here anyway. I know how it is, movin'.

Cool! Format pleasing to the eye.
The picture up top looks a little fuzzy, and we don't want anyone to think you're unclear or abstract (whereas that's a plus on my blog).
the "sharpen" filter in Photoshop helped a little, but maybe it's just a placeholder for a higher-res...
Tom Raftery

Ah Robert,
you're not going to keep that header image, are you? It is a terrible picture of you - you are squinting, probably 'cos the sun is in your eyes (?).
Surely you can get a better pic for the header image - in my own case, I used Kubrickr (http://www.redalt.com/Tools/kubrickr.php) to automatically find a Flickr image and crop it to the correct size for my Wordpress theme.
HTH,
Tom

Scoble launches scobleizer.com and at least three maggots create hoax sites on the derivative spellings of the scoble URL. But they don't have RSS feeds so you know they're fakes.

Dear Robert Scoble,
I would like to ask your help with a problem I have with WordPress.Com This is not a technical issue, but more of a person problem.
I sent an email, but I do not know if it will pass your spam filters, so I put the story up at http://free.wordpress.com/
Why am I asking for your help? I am a professional consultant working on Microsoft technologies for more than 15 years, and I am an avid reader of your blog. In fact, one of the most popular OpenDomains is http://Xaml.Net , the #1 domain in ALL search engines for the keyword 'xaml'. I am very proud of OpenDomain, and the work I do to promote sharing code, and I would like to ask you if you can contact Matt at m@mullenweg.com or http://photoMatt.Net . I am not asking for you to take my 'side', just ask for him to contact me so we can resolve this issue.
Thank you, Ric Johnson

I'm running OS X 10.4.2 and viewing this site and I see no similarity whatsoever between the two.

Same here, running Mac OS X 10.4.2 and I can't imagine how anyone could think this theme ("Connections" from vanillamist.com) bears any resemblance to OS X.

Clearly you are a bunch of M$ shills.

Good luck with the blog.

I too have several blogs, my main one is in Radio, the others in WP and MT.
All have advantages and disadvantages. However I've been pondering moving m Radio blog to WP.
For those with Radio, moving the Radio entries to a new blog can be simple. Coverting Radio entries to another platform is messy, moving them isn't.
1) create new blog on new server 2) make a folder, call it Radio 3) in Radio, publish the entire Radio site to this new folder. 4) put a link on the home page of the new site, call it Radio Archive, pointing to this new folder.
Your Radio blog with all entries will be there exactly as it was in Radio. (I haven't tested this, but see no reason it shouldn't work.)
In Windows IE much easier to read, in fact compared to most, a real pleasure.
