Happy B'Day


On March 5, Catalogablog hit the one year mark. I've had a fun learning experience playing with the site, adding RSS feeds, Javascripts, a blogroll, and other items. Writing and posting the items has made them stick in my mind, so maybe I'm a little more on top of the issues. It has been fun receiving items from readers and corresponding with them. I also have been surprised by the people who find this useful.

What a long strange trip its been.

It seems Bloglet, the service that e-mails postings, has been down several days. I've e-mailed them, but have yet to receive an answer. One of the RSS feeds was down for a few days. I think it was connected to the blackout, since the times were the...
