Radio UserLand is a powerful tool that is well known for its Web log publishing features, but it is a much larger content management and information aggregation tool. This $40 product has been purchased by more than 200,000 people, and is gaining popularity among those who are eager to make dynamic Web content through exploiting the growing amount of data available on the Internet.

"Radio UserLand Kick Start" provides everything a Web site developer needs to get started with the software, including a primer on the UserTalk programming language and the software's object database, which are considered the two main stumbling blocks for any Radio Userland user who wants to go one step further. Emphasis is placed on the software's XML-RPC, RSS, and XML functionality, which makes it easy to create Web services and use the Web services and information of others.
