Testing Something
Posted on January 2, 2006 Posted by John Scalzi 6 Comments
I’m checking out the new Performancing plugin for Firefox to see how well it works with the Whatever (I’ve gacked it from here). Consequently, this particular entry will be almost entirely devoid of any useful content whatsoever. But it will have this picture:
And now I will post it to see what happens. If the Whatever explodes, you’ll know it was me screwing things up again. If it doesn’t explode — yay, me! Technology has not flummoxed and conquered me today.
Update, 2:50pm — and now I’m fiddling the blogging tool on Flock, per Tobias Buckell’s suggestion. It’s interesting, too. Ooooh, and look, a spellcheck. Shiny, shiny.
Nope – no explosion.
I found Performancingto be almost completely useless; lacking even the most basic features I need. Whereas the “quickpost” bookmarklett that MT comes standard with worked for me fairly well. What about Performancing did you like?
Actually, I neither like it nor dislike it at this point; I’m just checking out to see what I think of it.
If you liked Performancing, John, try downloading Flock for OS-X and see what you think as well :-)
Nothing exploded. But then it’s after 3:30, so I’m assuming you’ve already found most of the bugs, if any.
Hmm, yeah, I liked this, except it keeps wiping half of my posts when I add technorati tags, which is beginning to annoy me. No idea what I’m doing wrong, and at the moment, I’m going to stick with W.Bloggar
