Random thought of the day:
On kvothe's phlog index [1], the warning "The actual content is
guaranteed to be of dubious quality." I have similar appraisals of
my own work and I hope tob [2] would approve the creation of the
Dubious Gopher Committee. If asked I would gladly warm a seat in
said committee.
Tomasino [3] and Christy [4] are contemplating categorizing gopher
phlog entries for Burrow. In the phost, tomasino suggests tags as
a potential solution to this problem. I started out tagging my
entries and then omitted them because *effort*. I still think this
is a direction I will ultimately go, with tags linking to relevant
entries and whatnot. So today marks a return of tags, to be
completed in a future project. Once again, *effort*...
I think that I'm finally honing in on the style that I prefer. In
my previous entry [5], I dismissed the thought of providing a text
only entry due to the duplication of data. Looking at the problem
with a fresh set of eyes, I saw how obvious the solution was, and
will be offering a text only version [0] which should be
compatible with Gopher(tm) brand gopherowzers (and friends) with
long gophermaps.
My only question for you, dear reader, is whether you prefer the
text-only link at the bottom along with the others, or at the
top for immediate access for the afflicted gopher clients?
Stylistically I prefer it at the bottom in a single location, but
I do prefer function over form. Or am I catering to a tiny subset
of the gopher audience, myself included?
Today it will be at the bottom, but please let me know if you have
an opinion.
