Experimental Triangle blogs aggregator

I put together an experimental Triangle blogs aggregator using the new Planet Tool aggregator. Let me know if you'd like to be added or subtracted from the aggregation. I stole Anton's Blog Together theme. Maybe I can convince him to steal my aggregator.

There is an RSS feed and OPML subscription list for the whole site, and one for each of the groups (Chapel Hill bloggers, RTP bloggers, and TriJUG bloggers).

Clinton slept in the shrub

Doing some research on Technorati and other newsfeed search engines, I happened on Bill's blog and this memory of a midnight walk through the Triangle:

Bill Clinton: So that’s the reason I know these places so well. I remember one night and this is many years ago, I went to see him, but he wasn’t home. There were no buses and I didn’t bring my wallet so I tried to walk from Chapel Hill to Raleigh. Big mistake. After a few miles, I couldn’t go on anymore. I tried to hitchhike, but I found no buyers. I gave up. It was extremely dark. People living in New York don’t know how dark rural areas are. The crickets were chirping, I remember them very well. My old friends the crickets. Since I was in the middle of nowhere I decided to go into the shrub and sleep. I did. It's surprising how easy I fell asleep. I mean. In the middle of nowhere. I had no fear whatsoever. Youth.
