Not feeling too hot this morning. Had trouble getting to sleep.

But my About.com site, Focus on BeOS is now live. I have a lot of plans….

I did manage to implement “Post New Article” for Informant last night. I’m trying to implement one feature or major fix per night. We’ll see where that leads.

Came across a very interesting article called Edit This Page yesterday. It suggests that editing a webpage is mcuh harder than it should be when you have to FTP it. Why not let you edit the page in-place? Just include an “Edit” button or link at the bottom of the page, which pops up the page in an HTML textarea. Hit “Save,” and it’s saved. Boom. One CGI script takes care of the whole thing.
