Minor adjustments

I've made some adjustments to the blog today:

First of all, there now is a possibility to only show English posts, or only Dutch posts, similar to the categories and the archives.

Second, at the overview of blog posts, the titles now link to the full post. I don't know why I didn't add this sooner, because it makes so much sense.

And finally, again because it just makes sense, when you're viewing a single category or month or language, there now is a link back to the full list, similar to the Back link when watching a single post.


I've got some more things planned, as well as an actual "real" blog post for the first time since August

No spam after two months?

I started this blog almost two months ago. And where the People2People blogs had some problems with spam, mine stayed spam-free. In fact, it stayed completely comment-free.
Yesterday a friend of mine told me why: posting a comment didn't work man, do I feel stupid now!
This blog uses mod_rewrite which, in short, means that /archive/2008-12 or /full/3 aren't really existing folders but are fake folders to give nicer URL's. I don't have much experience with them, and as a result I made a small but rather large mistake. Replying to a blog post is done in reply.php, but when viewing a blog the system "thinks" reply.php is located in the non-existing folder /full. As such, replying didn't work and nobody was able to post any comments.

First REAL post

Yeah, what the hell. Even though it's not completely finished I decided to give my blog a proper start.
I've been blogging on Hyves since 2006 but not on what you can call a regular basis. Then a few months ago I started writing programming (less confusing word when you're talking about writing blogs blogging ) a blog for People2People. That inspired me to start my own blog, away from Hyves. This gives me the benefit of writing in both English and Dutch (writing an English blog on a website for Dutch people is just silly), I can change the layout to whatever I like and... and... well, it just gives me more freedom.
And here it is: a blog that originated f...

First post! W00t!

Move along people, nothing to see here (yet)!
