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.

@burtonator p.s. I gigled at how in 2004 (my 9th year) the web was already in dire need of a clustick. http://tinyurl.com/25cuq9
