the joy of releasing new apps

- the feeds do not work as they are supposed to. The Atom feed is OK but Nicole sez “you shall use RSS” and when Nicole sez me does.
– my host went down yesterday at the worst possible time (2 secs after pressing the “Save Template” button)
– the subdomain blog.ballpark.ch has not been activated by these same people (I wish I could googlebomb them “à la Scoble”: bad hosting, bad hosting)
– the site was quite nice (clean at least, the real design team will start working later) on Firefox, then I checked it out on IE who is quickly becoming the Netscape 4 of the 21st century (HTML people will feel the pain)

I was discussing last week how software (most notably open source software) has matured, how it better covers these standard needs like blogging. Still there is a long way to go before software simply works the way it is supposed to work. You knew that.

    lol
    I said drop Atom, because it will confuse, a small difference. ;)

    Looks okay in Firefox and IE on Windows. :)

    the atom feed is back up and works in bloglines, I’ll leave it like this for the moment.
    I just got this suggestion from my blog coach and I’ll give it a try. More on the textpattern to rss2 issue coming I guess…
