Active

And now comes one of my obligatory posts about things I have done with this here site. Perhaps if you are on the home page you’ll notice an activity feed with actual items populated in it! I have written a WordPress plugin that parses (currently only) RSS feeds and aggregates them into a single list which I can control. There are some noticeable and not so noticeable improvements:

Pros:

• Instead of having to wait for an AJAX query to Yahoo! Pipes, the fetching is now done by wordpress and is cached in the back-end. What this means to you: faster loading pages!
• I can now control what feeds are visible to different user-levels. What this means to you: If you aren’t logged in or don’t have an account you can still virtually stalk me (kind of). Of course, if you were to register you could see everything

Cons:

• Decreased control over formatting (for now).
