Project update

This will be a busy weekend for me. I have a couple of projects I've been studying up for. I want to start the actual design work and on one project get some real coding going on.

I've decided reBlog is cool enough to work with for a while, sort of the way I used Blogger to figure out how blogging software should work before writing MTClient. With reBlog, I'll be collecting the sites I actually want to track. The qualifications will be different than those for getting into my personal RSS reader…more liberal (as it were) because there'll be a few more conservative types. And there will be very, very few pure referral-type blogs.

I've tossed a style sheet and template on my little reBlog experiment that's a variant of the P6 templates and am, once again, choosing one of two avatars:

And in the course of all this, I've decided an optional full text feed is not a bad thing. It's at

This is probably the last project update that will be posted here.

I like the little man on the left with the newspaper.

For some reason I thought you were at SXSW.

Expect email over the next few days with details of my evil plans.

I think the image on the right would look better on a non-black background to provide a bit more contrast. The newspaper one is cool too.

That one is NOT the one I posted the other day. I uploaded the wrong one.

I may keep both. Now I'm thinking about an avatar for each category.
