You may have noticed that the Blog has rolled back in time. There seems to be a bug in Greymatter that caused the archives to fail when more than 100 comments were added to an entry (that’s my story anyway and I’m sticking to it). I restored from tape and I will restore the missing entries by hand when I get home.
Meanwhile I’m creating this entry for tonight’s show. We’re demonstrating how to do a blog and I’m going to show people how easy it is to use Blogger and Greymatter.
And to insert graphics, too. So
Happy Holidays!
Here is a cheap plug for myself.. I’m Dave Keller!!
Anyways Leo, if you kept up the blog better with your postings, it wouldn’t get past 100!!! Just kidding- you know we luv ya.
Leo, I was just posting a message in the bases about the blog.
Anyhow, stick with Greymatter. Blogger doesn’t allow comments like this. 🙂
I am disappointed to hear greymatter is perl, php is the future. I have my entire site in PHP, message boards, newsPHP (based on newspro) and it is so much nicer than perl. Try it.
how come you didn’t mention my favorite blog site xanga? You can check out my blog at http://www.xanga.com/lakerace
Thanks Lakerace
Sorry to post a third time, but my blog is at http://brianopp.no-ip.com/blog/
Hi Leo,
I just want to say that I am a fanatic of THE SCREEN SAVERS and that you have helped me and my computer in many ways.
Thanks.
No blogging for PHP? Are you guys nuts? Check out http://www.plebian.com
Did ya see it! My link was on TTV for 3/8ths of a second!
Ah HA!
hi leo’s mom!
My thoughts exactly, Ben… especially since I don’t get Perl. I can use PHP, but I haven’t found a blogging system that works with just PHP other than Blogger. I’m looking for a blogging system that I can keep on my site… don’t like relying on another site being up.
i stink. therefor i’m spam.
leo, please stop promoting your book. your dad will become jealous.

Thanks for the tip on GrayMatter… I downloaded it and got it up and running on my site in less than an hour! Keep ’em coming!
Hey, I watch THE SCREEN SAVERS all the time… It’s my ALL TIME favorite show. I litterally learn something everytime I watch. lol I found out about your website from when you where talkin’ about the blogs.. Later
Just caught your show about Blogger and Greymatter, I just moved into MOVABLE TYPE :: Personal Publishing System This is even better software. Check it out!!!
Greymatter is a good weblogging package, but, at least as much respect, if not more goes to newspro, and, moreso it’s successor coranto (http://www.amphibianweb.com/coranto/), so, um, with that shameless prop out of the way
Leo,
Since watching your show from Canada by satellite TV and love watching THE SCREEN SAVERS!!
This Blog thing sounds really easy to do and setup!! Looks like a lot of fun!
Great show and like the episode with Dave Chalk!!
Cheers,
Jeff 8^)
To rule the world, you must first visit http://www.deathpix.com
Yeah, a cheap plug, watcha gonna do?
Use the ((positvekarma)) and ((negativekarma)) variables.
PLEASE VISIT MY BLOG AT http://brianopp-no-ip.com/blog/
GO TSS!!
How did Leo make his “Karma” on his Blog show the positive votes and the negative votes, because when I installed it, it just takes points off your overall Karma score instead of showing Positive/Negative Karma score.
Hey Leo,
Big TSS fan here, and i love the way you keep bring up your book.
I’m going to go grab one just because.
Happy Holidays,
Aaron
Hey Leo!
Keep up the great work! My wife hates the show, but my six year-old son and I love it! And we’re Canadian!!
Check out http://www.twinsoftrade.com and download the MP3!
Cheap plug if this is gonna be on TV:
VISIT DEADKITTY.ORG — IT’S NOT BAD!
Hey Leo!
Big fan of the show! You’re an awesome host, and you’re darn funny. Keep up the good work!
kewl, same here
Colin, lol.
Now, if I were to follow your lead, I’d plug SPOOMPH.COM. After all, the name was inspired by Megan. (A spoof with more OOMPH!!)
But I didn’t plug it, too. lol 🙂
HELP, LEO. ABOUT 2 WEEKS AGO I STOPPED BEING ABLE TO CONNECT TO THE TECHTV WEBSITE. I HAVE DONE EVERYTHING I KNOW TO BE ABLE TO CONNECT BACK AND CANNOT SEEM TO DO IT. TECHTV IS NOT THE ONLY SITE, MSN COMMUNITIES, OUR LADY OF THE LAKE UNIVERSITY SITE WHERE MY WIFE ATTENDS ARE OTHER SITES I CANNOT CONNECT TO. NONE OF THESE SITES IS SECURED. REINSTALLED IE, AND CIPHER STRENGHT IS AT 128BIT. I’M USING WINDOWS XP PRO, I HAVE LINUX MANDRAKE 8.1 ON THE SAME COMPAQ PRESARIO 7599 WITH LILO. WITHIN LINUX I CAN CONNECT TO THE SITES, NO PROBLEM. IT WOULD BE NICE TO CONNECT WITH WINXP. THE ONLY THING I HAVE BEEN ABLE TO DO IS THAT WITH THE OUR LADY OF THE LAKE UNIVERSITY SITE I CAN CONNECT IF I ENTER THE IP ADDRESS DIRECTLY, (216.248.213.5).
Just got GreyMatter and I’m going to use it on another one of my sites to archive updates and newsletters so visitors no longer have to sign up for them anymore!! (shameless plug http://www.wolfsource.org) Very user friendly and ad free, can’t beat that! Saw on the rerun today that you have a “farm” and goats. Leo I love you man but 2 acres isn’t a farm that is a really big yard *grins* Are you going to try to do a show from your house!! That would be cool a morning edition of the show with everyone in their robes drinking coffee and eating Wheaties!! *grins*
