So we're about seventy-five percent less crappy now. Cool beans.

I suppose I'd better start blogging about the novel now or something. Not sure I want to tonight. I think first I want to get my admin interface back up and running, so I can blog from the web page instead of from the PHPMyAdmin "Insert" form.

If none of that made a whit of sense, don't worry about it. Presumably you're here because you're also into that NaNoWriMo thing. If you do PHP and MySQL too, that's a plus, but certainly not necessary.

No, I can't adequately explain why I don't use an out-of-the-box blog manager like Blogger.com or Moveable Type. I could say, "I'm a control freak," or, "That would be cheating," but if you had to ask, those answers probably wouldn't cut it. In which case, I suppose, it would be best not to ask.

Again, stay tuned.

Drat. Do you now how soon November is?

If you aren't using LYNX or another text-only browser, you will have noticed that my journal for NaNoWriMo 2004 looks like crap. That's because I have not yet created a set of stylesheets for it.

Those of you who are using LYNX probably haven't noticed the crappiness and I applaud you for your foresight.

More later. How much later? Who knows. Stay tuned.
