Right now I am reading the most excellent book by the esteemed Bruce Lawson and his partner in crime Remy Sharp. I must say, to start with, that is a great read, which has me whipping out my laptop. Even on a sunday morning, before my 2nd breakfast, which is really uncommon. I even started to hack away at this site, just for the heck of it...

And that is the small thing that I wanted to share with you. I don't know why but I haven't gotten around to properly adding the time attribute to this site, even though I got it in #html5 for quite some time now. Somehow it didn't happen, but anyway, here is the code to add it in habari.

<time 
  datetime="<?php echo $post->pubdate->text_format('{Y}-{m}-{d}'); ?>" 
  pubtime>
    <?php echo $post->pubdate->
      text_format('<span>{M}</span> 
                   <span>{d}</span>, 
                   <span>{Y}</span>'); 
    ?>
</time>

It's just a small bit, but I hope it is of help to someone who uses habari...

It's visible content is in dutch / european order, but I'm sure you can change that to suit yours...

Right now I am working on a redesign of this site. Since I believe in open communication, I will be doing this redesign live. So no testing behind closed doors and so on.

I will be doing this live for all to see.

Please let me know what you think..
( and yes the theme will be made public... )

Update

strange, Habari just reverted to the default theme overnight, this is why I am back to k2...

Update 2

Happily hacking away at some css, while trying to set up a proper html5 structure. This is very interesting as it is a break from the old div's with id's and classes. That I got covered, now I am in new territory. Wish me luck...

Due to some problem with a faulty table that habari set in my mysql database and/or the inability of my host (who has some problems) to create backups from it, all of my content from last october untill now was lost. I am now slowly returning everything, but for the comments as google doesn't cache them as it does my page.

So it will be bumpy and I will be making more frequent backups from now on, I promise, I really will. As for the comments, I will do my best and if anyone has a suggestion, please do...

After a bumpy ride with my old wordpress blog, which has been up for more than 3 years and had collected all too much dust, I switched. For now the blog is running on Habari, which looks really promising.

I tried textpattern, which I liked, but could not import my wp blog. So that went out, now it is time to work with the template, which is something which I will share with the habari community.

So if you have suggestions about what you want to see on the site or not, please let me know...

UPDATE
Comment spam is handled really well, not one got through so far (have i jinxed it now?).
