Halfway to a 2D Portal
Well, 90% of the code is done for my replacement two-dimensional URL holder portal/launch thing. That means that the other 90% is still to be done. For quite some time, I have been using http://dal.i.am/p/ as a "home-away-from-home" page, for quick access to the weblogs and other sites that I would check frequently. But it was inflexible, poorly organized, and required too much correlation between its templates and its (minimal) Python code.
So, I thought I ought to write one with a real HTML templater (but I only need a very simple one, so I just used YAPTU, from the ASPN Python Cookbook). This one lets you list the weblog, its URL, and a list of keywords, and then it will collect the weblogs that have each keyword, and put them into columns in the tables. The code isn't as nice as I'd like yet (i.e., not nice enough to publish), but the resulting table in its barely-working form is, for now, here: http://dal.i.am/q/ .
