Microsoft launches blog tool

I sent an email yesterday to tip Internetworld about the rumour that Microsoft would be launching a blog service this week. And today it turns out that Microsoft now have rolled out MSN Spaces during the night. MSN Spaces lets the user:

* Create blog posts

* Search other blogs for information

* Transfer photos from your mobile to your blog

* Create and manage your page from your mobile

I was right, Urban 😉

Bloglines goes multi-lingual

News aggregator Bloglines yesterday launched a new internationalized site in six new languages.

* English

* Spanish

* Japanese

* Chinese (Traditional)

* French

* German

* Portuguese

They also reached the milestone of 200 million articles indexed. The first 100 million took one year, and less than 4 months to reach the double amount.

Gudmundson on SVT

Journalist Per Gudmundson who was asked to stop blogging if he wished to keep his job at Swedish Television, was interviewed today on Kulturnyheterna on SVT. Somehow I sense that Per hasn’t entirely given up on his blog. Although I find it hard to believe, maybe a constructive debate can convince his boss to reconsider. The show can be viewed online here.
