It’s been a busy period … it took a lot of hacking to pull together a rough
feeds page
… and I’ve been kicking myself for writing so little (ok, I’ve been putting a lot in
my del.icio.us
), not even in
my wiki
. Little things, like how adding ” | ” to a slab of php produced a newline, yet when I threw in a whole series of <br> and <p> I couldn’t get white space to seperate big blocks … the CSS was over-ruling them … even <hr> didn’t work. But I did get some major stuff done anyhow.
Then I read a longish article on “I have found a way to read most of their terrific hacks for free using Google Book Search - at least for now. This trick, by the way, works for lots of books, like …” I gotta wonder where people’s priorities are.
That
warranted a post that showed up on Feedster and weblogtoolscollection.com?! *shrug* I’ve done the equivalent, a couple of different ways, a few times. Meh.
Anyhow, things are moving along … this WP theme is working, basically (sad that it relies on background GIFs so much, so things are good.

Welcome to my first WordPress blog. This is my version of the boilerplate WP “Hello World!” post.
My personal LiveJournal, hfx_ben.livejournal.com
(”a variety blog c/w rants”) and
the LJ for notes from my “Participatory Deliberation” project
