Comments on: Pardon Our Dust… http://www.theliquidengineer.org/blog/2007/05/10/pardon-our-dust/ Movie reviews, random thoughts, and pie.

Glad to hear you like the K2 usage. Aside from laying out widgets, I haven't really done that much to customize it yet. I hope to get a bit more creative with it later. I'm using one of the nightlies 'cause the standard release doesn't do three column layout, and I kept running into bugs with 0.9.5. Seems totally stable now. I use Newsfire myself. Awesome application. Got it as part of the MacHeist bundle sale. ShareThis is indeed quite svelte, but I'm not as happy with Link Harvest, as it doesn't seem to parse titles from linked pages very well at all, and completely chokes on Wikimedia sites (which is where I do most of my linking). I don't suppose you know of any alternatives? Do you use OpenID for anything? If so, you might consider voting on the extension proposal I linked to in my next entry. Mark,

I was in the Wordpress IRC channel last night. :) Anyway, I like how well you have gotten K2 to work. Added this blog to my RSS reader (NewsFire). Thanks for talking about the different plugins you use, for I have downloaded a few (Share This and Old Post Alert from Alex) to use on my blog.
