Something old, something new,
... something borrowed, something blue.
What started me down this path was posts by Tom Coates and Phil Ringnalda. Together, they started me thinking about rethinking my original story vs. post dichotomy, and toward what is emerging as the blog standard of post vs. remaindered links dichotomy.
I've also updated a number of my feeds - notably, I've updated the rss 1.0 and rss 2.0 feeds to conform to description being an optional synopsis. My RSS 2.0 feed has replaced link with guid - I think all aggregators that have RSS 2.0 support can handle this, but if there are any that have lagged behind, I still have plenty of other feed formats to choose from. Finally, I've removed a number of usages of admin and dublin core namespaces from the rss 2.0 feed (I still use dc:creator in my comment feed to avoid revealing email addresses).
While the header is shamelessly borrowed from Bob Congdon, I plan on evolving it.
I've tested all this under a number of browsers and aggregators, and I don't believe I have broken anything, but if I have, let me know.
