page) along with updated pages.
|
| Feb. 3, 2005 |
Uploaded what I thought was the finished mksite.pl script (see my tech page) along with updated
pages. Unfortunately, the script was not quite correct and many of the
paths in the generated files were incorrect breaking all sorts of things.
|
| Jan. 31, 2005 |
Updated mksite.pl to support
creating HTML, RSS(Berkman RSS 2.0), and XML(W3C RSS 1.0) files from a
single journal entry description file. This necessitated many additions to
mksite.pl most of them just to support reverse chronological ordering of
the posts. :-( Further, it seems to diverge significantly from the original
spirit of the script but, since I couldn't find any other tools to do what
I wanted that weren't CMS behemouths, this will do.
You can find this script on my
tech page.
Added RSS 1.0 & 2.0 feeds of my journal to the web site with links to
them on the home page and journal pages. Someday, hopefully soon, I would
like to get this page into RSS format also. I think RSS 1.0 and maybe even
RSS 2.0 may support specifying multiple feeds in a single description file,
in which case, I'd create a meta-RSS feed for the site that links to both
the journal and update history feeds (and any future ones).

There is little noticable difference but, I revamped the way I maintain
the site. It is now done with a wonderful
little perl script that I wrote and may be found in my
geek playground. This has
unfortunately caused all of the last modified dates for the pages
to be updated since that is now done automatically. For those that are
curious, and you must be if you are reading this, the perl script was the
only substantive addition.
Other changes were just some minor formatting,
grammatical and broken link fixes..

Added ego searches and a list of my previously used email addresses to
my 'who is' page.
|
