Just the Articles, Ma’am

So a while back, I started treating my blog as a place to store both my thoughts on particular topics as well as links to things on the Internet that I thought were interesting. This may have been frustrating for some of you who were following my All Entries feed and suddenly saw this onslaught [...]

Easier Formatting and Easier Commenting

One of the things I’ve been meaning to do for absolutely forever is to set up the WordPress installation on this blog to be able to handle Markdown. Well last week I finally bit the bullet and got it over and done with1. But first of all, what’s Markdown? From the Wikipedia entry: Markdown is [...]

Balkanisation of Comics Section Continues

It was always a little incongruous that the updates for Crap Comics went up as part of the regular inqk.net site while the comics themselves were posted to inqk.net/comics (which is in fact a separate WordPress installation). There was no reason for this other than the fact I couldn’t get WordPress to neatly display comics [...]

Shameless Plug for My Wife

Rui had been bugging me for quite a while to make her a web site and so over the last break I did my best to hack together something with WordPress that would suffice. The result is now live at rubikus.net. What’s there? Not a whole lot at the moment. Rui’s put up a couple [...]

Tags and Categories

In my never-ending quest to organise my writing I’ve deployed tags to the blog. (Yes, I know I’m on record as decrying tags but I don’t hate tagging, I just think sometimes people go overboard with it.) I’d found that trying to shoe-horn posts into a set number of categories was difficult and led to [...]

Category Pages and Navigation Bar

I was talking about doing something involving Mini-Sites but based on feedback so far decided instead to make the categories that I use here a little more visible. Categories have always been a part of the site but I’m not sure how many people realise how to access them or how to use them to [...]

Thinking About Mini-Sites

I’ve been thinking recently that I’d like to reorganise the way this blog works so that the categories I currently use are more distinct. At the moment it’s possible to subscribe to RSS feeds for the individual categories (just add ‘/feed/’ to the end of a category URL). However, the categories are only really useful [...]

Threaded Comments

I have some blogging I’d like to do in the next couple of days but lest you think I have completely neglected you rest assured work on the site is ongoing. I really like WordPress but one of the things I miss most about having a LiveJournal is the superior commenting that LJ offers. This [...]

New Country, New Life, New Blog

Well I promised I was going to do something for a while and here it is. I’ve thrown out the old inqk.net blog and replaced it with a new one. My apologies if you’ve come here looking for a particular link and it’s now gone. I’m in two minds about whether or not it’s worth [...]
