Since I’ve been playing around with WordPress this weekend, I decided to add a few new features.<\/p>\n
First, I’ve put text on the About page<\/a>. It’s been sitting out there, unwanted and unloved, for a while. That’s fixed.<\/p>\n Second, I’ve restored a page linking to my writings<\/a>. I had one, long ago, and it fell by the wayside. Right now, it’s a little barren (as there are some coding issues to deal with), but it’s a start.<\/p>\n Third, I’ve added a subscription feature to the comments. So if you leave a comment, check a box, and you’ll know if someone replies to your comment. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n And fourth, I’ve added a LiveJournal crossposter. So if you’re reading this through the allyngibson<\/a> LiveJournal feed (and the only way you’re seeing this paragraph is if you’re reading my blog blatherings through a feed), why not friend tiggerallyn<\/a> instead (as I will see your replies if you comment on the LJ entry, but not if you comment on the LJ feed which I never think to check)? I’m curious to see how well it works.<\/p>\n <\/span>That covers the weekend’s major updates to the website.
