Rolling your own blog software: further evidence for your indefatigability!

(Or perhaps something like <em>Airminded: delivering the knock-out blog</em>?) I have a similar problem with NBCD; these days 'CBRN' is a more popular term and I often get calls to change. As for my proposed RSS (H2S) feed, at the moment it definitely stinks; the penalty of a home-made blog, I suppose. I have a few minor issues to sort out, but the feed basically works. Release will be delayed until I've cleaned up the navigation and added a search facility. There's a catagorisation system too, which needs tweaking.

An RSS feed (Pathfinders? H2S?) would be a very good thing. "The knock-out blog" - I like that too! Unfortunately (or perhaps fortunately) I'm stuck with Airminded now ...

“The knock-out blog” – I like that too! Unfortunately (or perhaps fortunately) I’m stuck with Airminded now …

Struggling with a post-grad dissertation though, I wouldn't currently describe myself as "indefatigable", although I do find the occasional minute to do some work on NBCD. Unfortunately, I can't use my blog as a dissertation tool in the same way you can :) I still have some work to do before I can deliver the knock-out blog; navigation aids are being fine-tuned, recent responses are being fitted with IFF to make them appear on the radar and a four-engined RSS feed (blog-aimer?) is revving up in the hangar; anything to ensure that the Blogger gets through... Silly puns and metaphors aside, the bonus points are gratefully received; the name popped into my head about a year ago and I decided it was time to use it before somebody else did. You did mean "punny" and not "puny" didn't you.... Thanks very much for the compliments Brett!
