Back up!

Thanks to everyone who notified me of the planet stopped aggregating. Some weird issue with the planet software.

It has become obvious to me that I don't have the time or devotion require to keep this planet up-to-date. I was wondering if someone could help out or even better take over? Shoot me an email if interested...

Planet Cocoa back up!

If you see this post, it meens that Planet Cocoa is back up.

The server that is doing the feed hosting and processing was hosted in one of Webfaction's exploded datacenters.

It seems that the server is now back up so expect a huge batch of feeds from the past few days coming in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Let's get the word out!

I think that Planet Cocoa is now ripe and ready for public consumption. All it needs is a bit of marketing... so please digg it!

Feed powered by FeedBurner - please switch!

IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT

Planet Cocoa now routes its feed through FeedBurner. Please switch your subscriptions over to http://feeds.feedburner.com/PlanetCocoa. Thank you!

Planet is complete

I've finally cleared my backlog of blogs to review and add to the planet.

Now would be a good time to attract more readers, so please blog about it :)

Open call

What do all these blogs have in common:

http://www.gusmueller.com/blog/
http://inessential.com/
http://yamacdev.blogspot.com/
http://www.stuffonfire.com/category/programming/
http://www.kickingbear.com/blog/
http://unixjunkie.blogspot.com/

?

1. They all deal with Cocoa programming.
2. They do not provide any way of contacting the author.

I think it shows respect to ask the author of a blog before adding them to the Planet, so I've asked everybody (well, except Google and Webkit - I hope they don't mind!). But, the above blogs do not have any means of feedback besides comments, and I think it's rude to ask in public.

So please, if you are the author of one of the above blogs and you want to have your blog added to Planet Cocoa, drop me an email. And, if you know one of the authors, ping them about Planet Cocoa!

By the way, I have bookmarked more blogs to add but I have to do some research beforehand, so be patient everyone. I'll be on vacation for the next weeks so I probably won't be able to respond to any emails.


UPDATE: I went ahead and added most of the above blogs. I figured that if it bothers the authors they can always send me a removal notice.

Living the Life, waffle and Surfin' Safari

Living the Life (a.k.a. Mere Mortal Software), waffle and Surfin' Safari are now in Planet Cocoa!
