Everyone seems to use Blogrolling to manage links, so I'm going to jump on the bandwagon and see how I like it there. I have such a small list right now that I'm quite happy to just manage it myself, but I have a feeling it will be growing soon and it would be nice to see at a glance who has new entries. I've also noticed that I am never shown as having new entries on the blogroll over at North Western Winds, so I did a bit of reading and psyched myself up for figuring out xml-rpc, but luckily for me Serendipity has it built it, and even has an option to ping Blogrolling automatically. Well, that was easy.
Serendipity (our blog engine) is turning out really nice. We've been using more of the plugins recently, like comment-spam blocking and now xml-rpc, and it's been really easy. Yay for user-friendliness!
I'm going to be mucking with the layout of the blog today, and probably going to a three-column format so that my link list has better prominence. And room. So if things get really ugly (and I'm sure they will!), I promise they'll get better eventually!
