I did indeed add some fun stuff to the blog here. We now have the poll question, which I will regret creating in about four months when I can no longer think of anything funny to put there. There's also the brand new Mega-Doppler 8000, which doesn't actually use radar, but does show you the weather where we are. And I figured out how to get the calendar to highlight the current date, which will help remind me to pay the rent. (Oops, that would be now.)
Doing this was all very complicated, and required mastery of such things as cron! PHP! And MySQL! Yeah, you don't wanna know.
