Four new Web site features

July 21st, 2008 | Web and tech

You may not have noticed, but I’ve been spending a lot working adding cool technical features to this Web site:

Get updates automatically!

If you’d like to receive an email every day I post to this blog, then click the link for “Get updates by email” link at the top of the sidebar to the right and follow the instructions.

If you prefer using an RSS feed reader, you can find a link for “Get updates by RSS” right under the email link.

If you don’t know what a feed reader is but you’re interested in knowing more, watch this great little video from Common Craft:

Upcoming shows widget

Also in the sidebar, I’ve included a little widget that lists my upcoming music gigs. If you click on the link, you’ll find more details on every show.

Plus, you can subscribe to the new shows widget as a separate RSS feed, but I’ll likely post about new shows in the main blog, too.

Email this, print this links

When you click on a headline, you go to a page with just one individual post and its comments. At the top of those pages, you’ll now find links for emailing and printing posts.

Potentially related posts

Under each post on its individual page, you’ll find five or so other links that may or may not be related to the post above, depending on if the posting robot had its coffee or not.

I hope these features are useful to you.
