Do you use a newsreader to read your favorite blogs? Which one? Do you prefer entire entries being included in the RSS feed, or just excerpts?
I've made a few changes on the site over the past week. The one I'm most excited about is the aggregation of all of the different blogs I have set up. Now my favorite links, movie & book reviews, odds&ends links, and my regular blog entries are all aggregated together on my index page. So no matter which blog I post a new entry in ... they all get their "time in the spotlight" on the front page. And they all can have their own design. (which is what I really wanted ... I didnt want it to just list all my entries in the same format. Especially since I use different fields for different things in all the blogs). All it took was a few MT plugins (SQL and Compare) and a little coding frenzy -- and wala aggregated index page!
And I've moved most of my previous book and movie reviews into their own blog ... complete with the berrylicious rating system. To see all the reviews I've moved over to date ... visit the Reviews Page :)
Good lord, you're insane. Good insane, though. And I was quite impressed with all your inhuman coding abilities when I came across "wala" and realized that you were indeed human. I swear we've talked about (ahem) voila before, Lacy. :tongue: Still, everything looks super cool. I want your reviews section... Love the, well, everything. And damn JLo's mom.
wala. it sounds the same in my head. I mean -- I know I mean voila. Or maybe I meant Shazaaaam! :dance:
The reviews page is easily implemented :) You could do it in a snap! My categories are the ratings - and of course its using the wonderful MTAmazon. WALA! ;)
I use Newzcralwer (http://www.newzcrawler.com/) to read most of my favorites. It's actually really annoying now when I find a blog I like and it doesn't have an RSS feed. I've stopped reading some of my old daily sites just because I have no way of knowing when they update. Fortunately, most of you guys have RSS feeds. Although Addie - Rob's archive pages don't work, so when you click on each post in a news aggregator, it won't take you to the post.
I'll get right on that. :evillaugh: Sorry Rob - I will get on it. Someday. Honest!
