One of the things that I think people can do with Instant Outlines is =
produce topical outlines that represent a very concise, targeted bodies =
of knowledge. This means that you will be managing multiple outlines. =
This would be kind of like managing the links in your left hand =
navigation. I took Dave's drawLeftLinks macro and hacked it for =
managing multiple I/O's.
I have attached the macro, ioLinks.txt. It takes a single parameter, a =
URL to the OPML file that contains the I/O descriptions and links. Here =
is a sample call to this macro:
<%ioLinks("http://radio.weblogs.com/[usernum]/instantOutliner/Outlines.op=
ml")%>
Once in your templates, it will produce a list of I/O's on your page =
with a link and an orange OPML button linked to the outlinerSubscribe =
page in Radio. You can see an example of this macro at work on my =
weblog under the calendar:

Enjoy!
