    • More things to remember to play with:

      • Google Gears
      • Dojo Offline
      • Get back to XoxoOutliner someday
    • Oh hey, my laptop's on PDT time and my server's on UTC time. That'll affect Blosxom date headers a bit, ugh.

    • Okay, so I slapped together a quick CSS theme and an rsync-based uploader running every 10 minutes. It's live, after a fashion.

    • I've also hacked the feed not to include the most recent entry that I'm editing right now. That's important, and hopefully I'll explain soon.

    • There's not much to this thing yet besides Blosxom and a handful of shell scripts that:

      1. Rotate my always-open editor to a new blank file at midnight.
      2. Upload everything to my server every 10 minutes.
      3. Can open the editor from Quicksilver if I happened to have closed it.

      Keeping it stupidly simple for now. Maybe I'll keep using it.

    • Thinking of borrowing my Haloscan comments integration from my OPML blog and trying it here too.

    • Also thinking of trying Disqus, but not sure it lends itself well to this thing.

    • Maybe midnight-process the single day's bucket into multiple entries, cut on <hr> and entitled with first <h1>
    • Use some ASCII-text convention for embedding link anchors.
    • Possibly attach delicious-style tags to anchors for future lookup and search.
