WEBLOG WISHES AND QUESTIONS


Do you ever start to type something into Radio and realize that the font in the text entry box is not what you normally see? It happens to me quite a lot. Like right now. I’m typing away in Times Roman or whatever and normally my posts are in Verdana. At other times this text entry box opens up ready to go in Verdana.
I often see this when I’m going back and forth between posting and the news aggregator. Every post I make requires a little editing. I bold my titles. I make sure that the spacing is right. Sometimes (and this post is likely to be one of them) I have to post then edit the same post to use the ”clear formatting” option (it’s in the ’paragraph’ drop down menu). That pulls the text closer together.
After 7 months of using this tool and trying to learn something about weblogs, HTML and Radio, I sat down yesterday and captured (nearly) all of the things I wish for in my own weblog. From what fonts to use to what colors to how a link mouseover works, I put stuff in a document. I listed favorite sites and why they were favorites. Everything I put in the document had to do with look-and-feel not content. We’ll see where it leads!
