Why Reinvent the Wheel?

Posted by: Tix-R-Us on April 9, 2009 at 10:45AM PST

I have a blog that I host myself on a Debian Virtual Server running wordpress 2.7 with my own homegrown MU extension. I appreciate the GT offering me a community blog but I don't have time to maintain yet another one in the high style to which my blogs have been accustomed. What I do like is in-links to my existing blog. So I am including a widget that points to the latest posts on my own blog that I totally control. Of course this is widgety javascriptey so there is no link love here. But I'd be tickled if the titles of any of my blog posts inspired you enough to do an actual honest-to-goodness (OMG here it comes) Clickthrough!

Colleen,
I can send the feed from your blog to this one and will do that as soon as I can.
Keep up the good work!

Ahaa, you DID answer. I would like THIS post to be a sticky, until such a time as the blog teasers that automatically get sucked in AUTOMATICALLY link to the original work. That is really the correct way to do things if you think about it. I talked to Kyle at theport.com and she said that is coming.

Nice widget -- thanks for the info! I did the same for myself.
