I've posted a first pass at a file upstream driver that will allow you to direct rendered files to any folder on your local machine (or connected file server).

Radio post #3
I'm in the process of moving a weblog on the design of learning technology over to Radio from Blogger. I prefer Radio for several reasons, but primarily because it means I'll own my own data again, instead of relying on Blogger's servers. I'll also have more control over how I upstream data from Radio to my web sites. One of the main things I miss is Blogger's bookmarklet that made it easy to fire up a logging window with the URL of the a page already entered into the editing field. Hopefully there's an equivalent that I haven't found yet.

Yee-haw, first interesting side effect of my Radio daze! I copied the upstream.xml file to a subfolder of the website -- I wanted to see if I can get Radio to upstream to an ftp directory on a different server. But Radio got a hold of the file before I could edit it, and replaced my main radio weblog with the content of the subfolder! Learned lesson #1: be careful what you put inside of "live" folders.

Hey, look -- visible futzing! Radio looks pretty deep, and I'm mostly just trying to figure out what all it can do (having been away from the Frontier/Manila/Radio developmental arc for a few years). But I just realized that there's a public side to my poking around. Uh-oh, am I in trouble for not posting within 10 minutes of installing Radio?? Better get a post up, quick! It's a little creepy to know that there's a public face to my current wanderings through the ins and outs of Radio, so I'll just close my eyes and imagine a kindly grandfather keeping watch.
