Know what I did a few weeks ago? I named a new blog software. Now I’m anxiously waiting for WordPress to be released. PHP, MySQL, and based on b2 but with so much more. It’s the first blog software I’ve been willing to give a chance in a long time. Word on the street is that it will be out soon…

About the Test…
See that last post? The “Testing” post? It really, truly, was a test. However, I will work on granting access to restricted posts for those that have requested it tonight – just wanted to let everyone know that you’re not missing out on anything right now. In the future, should there be a need for a restricted post (I sense one coming on soon), you will be all set!
On a positive note – the reason for the restricted post was to test my RSS feed out. If you are using a news reader, you see the first few “teaser” sentences of the post, but I put the juicy stuff in the extended entry part normally – and so far in NewzCrawler & NetNewsWire, that works perfectly. To get to that part, you need access or the password. Exactly how it’s supposed to work. Yeah!
More good news? I’ve got tickets to tomorrow night’s Astros game, in the sweet seats! Section 321, Row 5, Seats 5-8. Click on the little 321 section, you can see the view of the field from my seats. They are courtesy of one of the partners at the firm. I can’t WAIT! I love baseball games!
Just For You…
Mad props to Jennifer for sharing her RSS Template Code! I didn’t want to share my extended posts for the rare time I do a “restricted access” post, but I haven’t stopped long enough to figure out another workaround to get a feed going with comments. Now I have one! Just for you, the last 15 posts with comments.
I haven’t really tested it yet, so if you see any bugs, let me know. It does validate, so that’s good news. You can grab the code for yourself here, and it is just a simple copy and paste to get it working!
I’ve decided to leave my default feed without comments, but this one will be available too for anyone that wants to use it! All because I loooooove you!
Ordered to Pimp…
