I’m not in the office today. I’ll be in for my last two days tomorrow and Friday, but I’ve got a job interview this afternoon, so I’m staying at home. I’m got nothing dreadfully pressing to do in the office anyway. So far today, I have got up, done a bit of work, done my yoga (I’m going to try and do at least half an hour every day, while I’m unemployed) had a shower and some breakfast (museli with fruit – someone please shoot me) and am sitting down to work. Today’s jobs – the first stage of a PHP script that will convert a blog entry to a LiveJournal post, and some notes toward The Thing With Sean.
Posting again? :O
Have a lucky bat icon for this afternoon. (Apparently the Chinese consider bats to be lucky.) Is this the interview at Russ’ place?
Oh, and you might want to disable comments here if you want it to feel like an extension of your blog, but you won’t get the community feeling if you do.
Yes, again
I got that auto-publishing script I was talking about working, so now I can publish my most recent blog entry as an LJ post at the press of a button.
So I’ll spend the next few days fighting with my LJ to make it look good, and then we’ll see. I probably won’t publish everything to LJ, but some stuff, at least.
Nah…
I’m happy for people to comment here. I’ve been thinking about writing a comments system for my blog anyway…
Re: Nah…
What happened to ‘I like getting the emails’? ;p
Re: Nah…
Hmm. Good point. I shall see how popular an activity commenting on the banalities of my life is, and make a decision based on that.
Re: Nah…
Sounds like fun to me :)
Re: Yes, again
If you want your LJ to look a bit like your Blog, use Punquin Elegant w/sidebar as the style. There’s some useful stuff about overrides here: http://www.livejournal.com/support/faqbrowse.bml?faqid=124 And is a bit of an expert, so you should pick her brain!
This is my colour scheme, if you look up what those hex values are it should help you work out what they mean by ‘strong accent’ etc, as those terms change depending on which style you use. (Mine is done in Punquin.)

Re: Nah…
Uh-oh, there goes the neighbourhood… ;P
(See Alasdair, you get people having conversations in your LJ if you leave comments enabled…)
Re: Yes, again
Most of my experience is using the style system for paid users rather than overrides but I’m happy to have a go :)

I like being banal *grins*
