So, what are you doing tonight? Permanent link to this item in the archive.

Dave's liveblogging election returns here. He wants to know if you are liveblogging too. You gotta do something else while listening to different interviewees saying the same thing the last one said, but you have to keep watching. You just have to. I'm doing deferred mending. Bottom of the pile looks like it's about two years deferred. Doesn't it feel good to catch up on something like that? And I get all these "new" clothes!

Isn't it funny how you're not able to just sit and watch TV anymore? Multi-tasking is so much a way of life. It's not all good, I don't think. I feel more distracted and distractible generally than I used to in the pre-personal computer era. I think I used to be able to concentrate on one thing more intensely and for a longer period of time.


Still need to prove my blog worthy Permanent link to this item in the archive.

Just mumbling here, never mind me, trying to figure something out. Other OPML Editor users, help me out, if you have any ideas about how to do this.

Trying to demonstrate something for PayPerPost. (See this post for more about my scheme to write fiction with ads as product placements in the story.) The human reviewer doesn't see how the OPML blog software distinguishes separate posts and wants to see time stamps.

11/7/06; 5:03:37 PM by A - I suppose I could do the insert time/date thing from the programmers menu for a timestamp like that, if it needs to show up on the post itself, rather than just in the feed.

As for the separate posts, there is no way to put each post on a separate page with this tool, but there are individual links to posts. They're found behind the arrow beside each headline. I could manually put in "Permanent link to this post" if the arrow is not obvious enough, but I shouldn't have to do that, should I?


If I wanted the product placements to appear to flow into the story, I could do a headlineless post for each paragraph and each ad. That could get tiresome for my feed subscribers. They'd probably unsub en masse. Unless I wrote very long paragraphs... no, I know. I could use two [br]s between paragraphs and make a bunch of paragraphs a part of the same outline node, instead of doing a node per paragraph. Permanent link to this item in the archive.

So, this would be part of the story. (I'm thinking of adapting Ibsen's The Master Builder. It wouldn't be high-brow, don't worry. I don't know how to produce high-brow, I only know how to consume it.) Permanent link to this item in the archive.

And this would be the ad, having its own link. (Link is behind the number symbol in this case, human editor. Do you have a name?) Oh, and if I did it this way, the link includes a timestamp.
