I try to say a lot while saying very little. Get used to it.
when i try to kill time
…i’ve realised i don’t really kill it.
a new look for the blog has happened. its fauna customized, with some neat AJAX plugins. thats while i wait for k2 to be updated… the next one promises to be a major upgrade. i wanted to go back to squible, seeing as it has some great updates, but the beta 2 refused to work – widgets and all.
which brings me to my additions. simple theme, this.. no major frills. added AJAX for viewing comments and expanding posts, as well as a live preview of comments for you chaps. am using widgets for the first time, simpler theming in some ways, if the damned theme gets the implementation right ! my archives go back to being dull, as this theme is not very supportive of live archiving
am tending towards minimalism or kiwi – one a completely stripped blog; and the other a completely widgetized blog. 2 opposite approaches.. but the look is not coming out just yet. kiwi has enough features to play around with for ages.. the other would look sleek.
maybe in a week. should be bored enough by then.
memo to self: AJAX comments in any form and Spam Karma 2 do not go well together
No trackbacks yet.
pubsubhubbub test #2
about 3 weeks ago - 1 comment
Testing latency of post-updating on Google Reader, using Feedburner’s inbuilt PSHB feature, turned off WP plugin.
Update: Even more instantaneous, published at 1439 hrs, appeared on Reader at 1439 hrs. I was PHSB enabled already (as I’ve been on FeedBurner for more than a year now), I just didn’t know it. Thanks to Louis Gray’s post More >

clubbing together a month’s worth of everything into one big gigantic post

This is the 4th attempt I’m making at trying for a halfway decent beginning to a post. Have I really been reduced to saying such banalities? I can’t quite believe it. When I look at my front page, most of my recent posts are about movies. Reviews, basically. Most of my recent posts have also More >

no matter how many themes i change, i come back to k2. clean, mean, features, customizable.. i really need to make a custom style to this one and stick to it. and its developed beautifully. i wonder if the svn version is any cooler than the official release.. which has ajax magic, one-click customizable sidebars, More >

no really good themes out there in wordpress. back to minimalism for now.
managed to add tag-code to everywhere necessary. need a good hack for ajax commenting, WP2.1 seems to have broken it. the google reader items are now in HTML pages, rather than modules.
enjoy.
not that it makes the slighest difference

random blog-posting while simulating – led to searching for theme – led to the customization of fresh; for the sake of a blog that probably only i read..
oh, well. whatever.

spent a coupla hours now trying to give a new look to my back-to-k2 blog, but its just not happening the way i want it to. asides-theming are a problem, as is the fact that for some reason the rolling archives only seem to load the first time i load the blog.
this particular flavour of More >

You remind of myself hehehe – I kept changing my themes ever so often, till I ended up making one of my own based on Squible and Hemingway. Not the greatest work of art, but I think was pretty happy in the end.
I think u should just develope a theme yourself – wordpress is quite easy!
