Ubuntard grudgingly goes Web 2.0
28 November 2009 in UncategorizedWe’ve finally taken the plunge and added various sharing and subscription facilities to Ubuntard. Most prominently, there are now subscription options, a Twitter link, and a FeedBurner counter in the sidebar. The Twitter feed will be updated with each post and other tidbits. The FeedBurner counter will take a few days to become accurate, as existing subscribers are redirected to it.
As per the existing no-nonsense layout, we’ve opted to provide increased functionality without degrading readability — Here’s looking at you, site with half a dozen floating objects and in-line ads.
In order to move to FeedBurner, we’re redirecting our RSS feed via a redirect header. Some clients don’t play nicely with the redirect, so if your feed drops, please pull out your LART and beat your feed reader into submission. Also, if you’re not subscribed already — do so, for extra slack.
We’ll be sending out secret decoder rings to all RSS subscribers; don’t miss out on this excellent piece of kit. Sign up today!
That is all. ^D
