Subscribe to my wordpress blog in vista sidebar
Feb 14th
I was recently asked if I provided feeds to my blog. I realized it’s not really displayed that I have a feed available for the blog. Since I use wordpress for my blog (running on a windows hosting account at AppliedI.net) it’s really quite easy to subscribe.
Subscribing to my wordpress blog via Firefox
When you access the site in firefox you’ll see a little RSS icon in the addressbar like this:
That tells you there’s an RSS feed available. If you click on it, the feed will display and you can subscribe to it using Live Bookmarks.
Subscribing to my wordpress blog via IE7
To subscribe to the blog access the blog in IE7, the browser bar you’ll see a little RSS icon:
Clicking on this ICON will display the feed. You’ll then be able to subscribe to the feed by clicking on the little star with the plus sign on it as shown below:
Clicking on that icon will subscribe you to the feed.
Displaying my wordpress blog in Vista using the Feed headlines gadget
Before you can add my feed to your gadget you’ll need to subscribe to the feed in IE7 as shown above.
If you haven’t already added the feed headlines widget to your Vista sidebar first do that. Then right click on it and select options:
From within the Options menu select my feed and click OK. Now my feed will display in your Feed headline gadget

IIS7 Beta Hosting Released
Feb 10th
This week Applied Innovations officially launched IIS7 hosting. We’re offering hosting on the Beta of Longhorn / IIS7 as part of the Microsoft Early Adopter Program (Actually, I think we’re early Early Adopters as I believe only 2 other companies are offering IIS7 beta hosting today). Unlike the other hosting providers that are offering beta hosting only to their existing customers, Applied Innovations is taking it up a notch and offering beta hosting to anyone that’s interested in getting a sneak peek at IIS7. So if you haven’t signed up for your IIS7 beta hosting account yet, now would be a good time to do so, http://www.appliedi.net/iis7-hosting/.
ASP.NET AJAX Hosting Support launched
Feb 8th
The past week was a big week for Applied Innovations, the ASP.NET team finally set ASP.NET AJAX (formerly Atlas) as RTM and as a result we released full support for it.
I’ve been a big fan of AJAX for a long time and in fact, it’s used in my blog theme here with the search box. Ofcourse my blog is done in PHP but the concepts are the same.
You can see our Press Release on ASP.NET AJAX hosting over at PRweb: http://www.emediawire.com/releases/2007/2/emw502149.htm
I point out emediawire because some many of the other news sources chop up the PR into what fits best. What’s so great about AppliedI offering ASP.NET AJAX hosting? It’s the great hosting promotion we’re offering with it. We’re including 3 free months of hosting and a FREE SQL2005 database with new signups. Pretty nice offer honestly.
You can learn more about asp.net ajax from our site at http://www.appliedi.net/aspnet-hosting/ajax-hosting.html (and also get details on the promotion).
Looks like Brad Abrams picked up on our offering of AJAX support too.
In fact, looks like we’ve created quite a buzz around our offering.
