\"BloggerIn common with many other bloggers, I use Google<\/a>‘s Blogger<\/a> service to generate the code for this blog. There are alternatives (like WordPress<\/a>) but Blogger has been working well for me up to now (especially compared with the mixed experiences I had with Scott Watermasysk<\/a>‘s .Text<\/a> and Community Server <\/a>engines whilst I was blogging at Conchango<\/a>). There are some things I wish Blogger could offer – like a post calendar, post categories, the ability to control the number of recent posts shown on the sidebar (I can only set the number of posts on the front page) and a choice between RSS<\/a> and Atom<\/a> syndication – but on the whole it’s pretty good.<\/p>\n

What’s especially good is that the guys who look after Blogger admit its shortcomings and even post Blogger hacks<\/a> in the help system, publicising tweaks to make the system better meet users’ needs.<\/p>\n

I’ve implemented a couple of these on the site recently, so I wanted to give the script authors some credit for helping me make this blog a better place (I hope).<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Firstly, there’s the archive list reversal (i.e. most recent first) and drop-down combo. For this I have to thank Roveberg<\/a>, whose script worked a treat for me when I added it to my template today.<\/li>\n
  2. Secondly, there is the on this day script from New Links<\/a>, which I’ve added to provide links to the BBC<\/a>, Encyclop\u00c3\u00a6dia Britannica<\/a> and Wikipedia<\/a> pages for any given day in history (you can see these below the date for each new entry).<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    I’ve also implemented a few hacks from Blogger’s own help system, like the e-mail this post link at the bottom of each post (next to the comment count).<\/p>\n

    Combined with an assortment of applets in the sidebar, I hope these help to improve the user experience. If there’s anything missing that would really help you to use this blog more effectively, leave a comment and I’ll see what I can do.<\/p>\n

    In something of a pre-emptive response to a comment that I might realistically expect to receive, I know that web site advertisements are a pain, but they are also a sad fact of life for many of us who are trying to cover our hosting costs on a site which is essentially a spare-time hobby (hence the reason for the wide variations in post frequency and quality around here). I finally sold out last summer and since then I’ve tried to keep the ads as unobtrusive as possible (whilst hopefully remaining effective). I hope never to have to resort to pop-ups or similar mechanisms and your support is gratefully received.<\/p>\n
