I’ve been working on a few new features for this weblog. Aside from the search box in the sidebar, I’ve written a program that creates a local compressed cache of all outgoing links. This allows you to see a snapshot of whatever page I link to at the time it was linked, and also to see the content if the other server is down or the content is gone. <\/p>\n
There is now a little dot following each link when there is a corresponding local cache file. For example, check out The Dick and Jane Reader for Advanced Students<\/a>·<\/a> from this month’s McSweeney’s<\/a>·<\/a> (parental discretion advised.) The dots to the right of those links should lead you to a local cache. <\/p>\n My weblog also automatically adds “titles” to outbound links—that means you should be able to hover your mouse pointer over a link and see the title of the linked document. <\/p>\n I’d appreciate any feedback on these new features. Particularly let me know if you notice any bugs, odd behavior, or ugliness with particular browsers. I haven’t had an opportunity to test with any Windows-based browsers. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I’ve been working on a few new features for this weblog.
