My own installation of FreshRSS would not load this blog’s RSS feed. And the RSS validator complained about a certificate issue, even though I could connect without errors in a browser.

Alternatives for “blog post”

If you run or write for a blog, or talk about blogs, you’ll want to refer to the content of blogs.

Nu met Dublin Core en vertalingen!

Als fan van semantiek op het web kan ik het niet laten gebeuren dat mijn eigen stukjes tekst niet op zijn minst algemene metadata bevatten. Dankzij de WordPressplugin Dublin Core for WordPress wordt de basismetadata (titel, auteur, datum van publicatie, taal van het stuk, enz.) nu in elke post gevoegd. Kijk eens bij “Page info” […]

Tumblr geïmporteerd

Met de Tumblr Importer plugin zijn mijn posts (waaronder door Tumblr geïmporteerde tweets) geïmporteerd in de nieuwe B&log. Ze moeten nog wel in de goede categorieën worden gezet, maar dat komt wel goed.
