Reading week finally arrived. I cruised into it a bit late, sticking in the lab until 8pm on Friday, but decided to take a brain break from the world of engineering and fiddle around on the computer. I brewed a whole pot of coffee and baked a dozen muffins and then sat down to code like I haven’t coded in months.

I wanted to make it possible for people to comment on weBLOG posts as well as on photos using a single universal piece of comment software. I dreamed up a means to do so and have the vast majority of it working. Comments are possible on all weBLOG posts from either the SeatoSea end of the website and from the “krabbe.ca” end of the website. It’s currently set up so that I need to approve all posts before they are publicly displayed. This is mostly to ensure that I get to see all the comments, I don’t want to miss any! It’s also good practice I suppose as far as avoiding spammers is concerned. I don’t know how soon that would ever happen but whatever, it’s a safety measure.

While I was at it I added a search option to my weBLOG because I was having trouble finding old posts in a short period of time. It’s also got a dropdown menu to select any of the “keywords” and access those subdirectories of the weBLOG. That page is linked HERE or from the top of the standard weBLOG page.

I really have a ton of other things to write about but I think I’m going to call it a night, pack up the computer and start getting ready for a little cross country ski vacation. I’ll post pictures and commentary on my VO2 test from this week sometime this weekend… so more on that later.
