Since I was just doing some updates today …<\/p>\n

I’ll be doing my blogging (as usual) with the Randyrants.com SharpMT<\/a> client tool. SharpMT is a great blogging client, and it makes doing large and time-lengthy posts a lot safer and easier. The blog itself is, of course, in MovableType<\/a> v3.16.<\/p>\n

As part of that, I’ve (re)installed the WMPtunelog<\/a> plug-in by Zempt’s Bill Zeller, which will let me do those annoying little “now listening to” music thangs during my posts. I expect to be using iTunes for Windows pretty heavily over that 24 hours.<\/p>\n

I’ll be using the count-down timer from xReminder Pro<\/a>, which is my no-duration alarm reminder tool.<\/p>\n

I’ll be using Firefox<\/a> as my browser, of course. \ud83d\ude42 Though my posts should be readable in IE, etc. (Which reminds me — I need to figure out why my blog looks a little wonky in IE …)<\/p>\n

I think that covers it. Aside from the invaluable tool of my coffee maker …<\/p>\n

UPDATE<\/u>: Okay, I jiggered around the CSS to make the margins separate out cleanly in both Firefox and IE6. I have no idea about how it will look in any other browser, because the whole CSS box model \/ IE5 bugs \/ Tantek Celik stuff<\/a> makes my brains hurt, and I tend to just change numbers and see what happens (“Empirical Design,” so to speak). So if all of a sudden text is running on top of text, please let me know. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
