Coming along every so slowly
Added several new features yesterday, which was shockingly easy.
Adding Textile support was a breeze with the RedCloth gem for Ruby. There is a bit of a learning curve, but it’s way easier than writing a lot of HTML code, that’s for sure. I am still working on getting CodeRay up and working. It looks like that won’t be terribly hard, though.
I’m also almost there on comments. After my last website became a mess with all the spam and robot comment posts, I decided I was going to get smarter this time. I am nearly done implementing Akismet, which is a slick way to filter spam from your comments without forcing users to do extra work. How am I doing this you might ask? A plugin, of course, called Rakismet which makes it falling-down easy.
Once I get that going, I’ll enable comments and then I can comment on my own posts, since I am sure no one is actually reading this thing right now anyway. Not even my mom. But, that’s not the point, is it? This is mostly an edumacational experiment, right?
Onward.
