Design, Bells & Whistles

January 22, 2007

WOOHOO I’ve finally nearly completed the Meaninglis site redesign! Oh MY GOODNESS it feels good to finally have my ideas all together on one site. I have to give loads of credit to Brian Gardner as more then half of this site’s code comes from his noggin.

I FINALLY got the polls to work which you now see on the left side of the screen. It’s fully functioning and it looks sooo cool. I thought I was drunk when I got it to finally work.

Other bells and whistles include the “Share This” option at the bottom of each post. This allows you to e-mail posts to your sphere of influence. Also if you use social bookmarks like del.icio.us or flurl it’s a quick click to add a post from Meaninglis.

The last whistle is the subscribe button way down on the bottom right. If you use a feed related service for your home page such as my.yahoo, myMSN, or myAOL you can add Meaninglis right to your home page. How cool is that??? Here’s a screen shot from my.yahoo.
