Trying too damn hard sometimes....
This is a test for combining Bloxsom with the console-based-diary to make the most minimally written Web diary available for people serving static pages on machines where they have shell accounts. The way to do it is to download the CBD from the link above, diff it against my modifications and then set up a diaryrc file in their .diary that will direct the CBD to put its entries in the Bloxsom directory and give them the suffix ".txt", like so. Presto. Type "diary" to write the day's entry, and "bloxsom" to process it with your Bloxsom templates and what-have-you.

Boston area note. Howard Dean is giving a major speech, titled "Democracy, Freedom, and Action," in Copley Square on Tuesday. Now's a good chance for Boston area folks to give this guy a lookover. Not sure I'd vote for him, but a friend of mine is Dean's web-monkey, so he can't be all bad.

And on another note, (gotten from Boing Boing), important consumer information for those of you wanting to pop p1lls to gr0w y0ur p3n1ses.
