I learned about a feature in Inoreader that's like a river in my earlier feed readers and in FeedLand Their feature is called HTML clips. Here's a link to an HTML clip I created for my podcast list. Not exactly sure what it's doing, it appears to show news in reverse chronologic order like a timeline, as in a river. Otherwise Inoreader seems to be a mailbox style reader. Thanks to Randy Lauen for the tip.

Network Notes on The Yule Log

Overall, you’ve got a strong concept: a log burning in a fireplace, on a loop for five hours. But we have a few notes.

  • Can the log be more aspirational?
  • Focus-group it to see if kids aged six to eleven think fire is too urban.
  • The log seems passive. Provide more backstory.
  • Can the fireplace have a cool sidekick? (e.g., A smart-mouthed pinecone)
  • Does the music have to be Christmas music?
  • Will viewers know what a fireplace is?
  • Make the fire more appealing to single men.
  • Where’s the merchandising tie-in?
  • Could the fire sing a duet with Michael Bublé?
  • Instead of a holiday one-off, could it be a weekly series? (e.g., Jake Log is an ex-cop turned P.I. who plays by his own rules.)
  • Why fire?

Otherwise, it’s perfect.

Happy Holidays!

A Light the Darkness Cannot Extinguish

Each day brings new horrors; scrolling through social media […]
