aside: the feed(s)
A couple of days ago I changed the main RSS feed for enthusiasm from summary to full text. I’m now seeing a plug-in which will offer a choice of feeds, which sounds like it might be a good thing to … more…
Now We Are Six; the novelty choking hazard explained
Enthusiasm became a blog six years ago today. Prior to that, enthusiasm had been a static link page on each successive iteration of my personal site, going back to February 1996, when Ye Midden first went up. A copy of … more…
