right now i’m bouncing around a couple of features to add to my site, namely 1) should i add an rss feed, 2) should i add comments, 3) editing my posts. neither of the three are too technically challenging to implement, i’m just lazy and don’t want to change too much of what’s in place. basically, i have to move to a mysql backend for it to really work properly.

why would i want to add these features you ask? well the comments thing i’m on the fence about, some people’s blogs don’t have anyone commenting and some do. so do the people who read my blog want to comment on what i write? i don’t know, but i would like some feedback on whether you would or not.

i want to add a rss feed because i think that it might get to a point in the near future where i’ll be too lazy to check everyone’s site. so i was going to get a rss aggregator to do it for me. but it would be hypocritical for me to expect everyone’s blog to support rss if mine didn’t (i think blogger supports it implicitly), so i figure i should implement that. the editing thing is for me when i make spelling mistakes or have something to add, which i never got around to code.

also i’ve thought for while that our class should have an online photo album, since we seem to take a lot of pictures. anyways, i didn’t want to maintain it on my site. so someone should take the initiative and make one! i’m also thinking about writing a php script which i could pass a jpg and it would automatically do the resizing, renaming and create a thumbnail for my photos section.
