ATOM/RSS Update

   16 August 2007, early evening

I finally got around to fixing my ATOM and RSS feeds for my link posts. When I link to another site, the link you click in the feed will take you to the site, not here. I think this makes more sense. The ‘#’ at the end of the link description will take you to the post about the link on this site.

  1. oh i thought you did that on purpose for stats collection. you have no idea how much this speeds things up for me. i used to open up all the tabs with your post pages and then do a second pass, opening up the links. thanks!

  2. No it was just because I was lazy. This is actually how things were done for a while way back when. I think I forgot to update my feeds when I did my big upgrade from my homebrew install to TxP 4.0. I track stats with Mint, and I should still be able to see what links people click.

  3. You need a feed that includes comments people write. I keep missing out on all the 3rd party posts here because I never actually load up your page anymore; I just use google’s rss reader.

Don't be shy, you can comment too!

 
Some things to keep in mind: You can style comments using Textile. In particular, *text* will get turned into text and _text_ will get turned into text. You can post a link using the command "linktext":link, so something like "google":http://www.google.com will get turned in to google. I may erase off-topic comments, or edit poorly formatted comments; I do this very rarely.
