- What does the little page icon mean on this first node for the day, as oppposed to subsequent ones that simply have a disclosure triangle?#
- Today I would like to get micro.blog and Drummer connected. Shouldn’t be too difficult since Manton published an excellent how-to guide.#
- I also want to add a publish button to the Drummer sidebar.#
- As a creative project I’m incredibly proud of Hemispheric Views. I want to grow its audience because I’m convinced it’s better than 90% of the podcasts out there.#
- Is this a bug? I wake up this morning to discover all the additional OPML Headers I added to Drummer last night are no longer there.#
- I realise that a number of my posts also seem to have gone missing. I think I made a backup. Good thing this is a playground. Well, I made a backup, but it wasn't recent enough. Now I have to remind myself again how to insert images from links to other locations.#
- I had a nice little picture of a bunson burner. It's important this isn't an `https` link, I think. Or the problem was more likely that I had capitalised the meta tag.#
- Okay, so now I've restored most of the intent, if not the original content, of what I had last night. Now I need to make sure I download a local backup — and make that process part of my regular Drummer routine.#
- Fastmail has been hit with a major outage/DDoS attack today. I feel sorry for them. Why do people have to do this sort of thing to good services? I know... money. It's always money.#
- I have spent an hour playing around with Amazon S3, Dave Winer's Public Folder app and Drummer in an effort to create an online storage environment for hosted images. Until I got stuck, and took a minute to ask myself what I was doing? I don't want to become a sysadmin at that level. It will make me crazy. So I've stopped.#
- And now my Drummer blog has been hit with the timezone bug. Definitely US-centric design at the moment.#
