With all of the new options being served up by Userland, I’m starting to think about a redesign of this site to incorporate some of the new stuff and some of the old stuff that I’m just now starting to figure out. I really like the Blogroll concept that for the time being I have posted here. And I’ve been playing with the viewRssBox macro and have it working on a fool around site. The kinda cool thing is that I’m finally starting to feel comfortable with the many macros there are to play with, and it’s almost making me think that I can figure out most of how Kern gets those main stories to display on the homepage from different departments. (I’m assuming it’s rss feeds from different sites aggregated into an rssBox…watch it be manual updating…)
Anyway, this site is feelinging too heavy and cluttered, and my brain has many ideas. But a couple of pressing humps remain: 1) I need to figure out once and for all what can and cannot be saved in a template (and I think I need to hire a consultant for this one,) and 2) I need to learn how to create the page in GoLive (which I can pretty much do) and then figure out how and where to embed the macros to make it work in Manila. I think I can muddle my way through that, but if anyone has any pointers…
