I've been forcing myself to use Chromium recently - it seems much faster and less bloated than Firefox, but it still lacks some features that I really would rather not do without - namely, a vertical tab bar and icons only on the bookmarks bar. Most other things can be got round more or less, and I do love the way you can add and remove extensions on the fly.

20/02/10 Bye bye Blogger, and good riddance...

So Blogger decided to stop supporting FTP publish blogs, leaving me a bit stuck. I had a play with Wordpress but it didn't seem to be very easy to customize, and doesn't support arbitrary scripts.

It should publish a valid RSS feed (please accept my apologies for anyone who received multiple updates during development!) and supports comments with via logging in to a local account. I had a look at some code to implement OpenID, etc. but it all looked a bit too tricky...
