In the interests of usability, the search form no longer shows gray text in a gray box on a gray background when you type into it.

You’re welcome.

In other news, the RSS/RDF/whatever feed now consists of the entry summaries rather than the full text. This more-or-less emulates what the previous system used to do. If you don’t like it, now would be a good time to say so. (My possible solution to an uprising might involve providing multiple feeds. I’m not sure yet.)

While I’m on that subject, I suppose now is a rather late date to point out that the feed URL has changed, so if you use a feed reader to keep tabs on me, you’ll want to re-add the subscription to this site. We apologize for the inconvenience.

    I have no idea what you just said, but that’s okay. ;)

    Now, the search form uses gray text on a darker gray box on a lighter gray background.

    Of course, I had never noticed this problem before now.

    If you reload the page a few times, Spud, you should find that it’s now black text on a grey background. CSS doesn’t necessarily get reloaded every time you view a page, so it may take a few times to see the final results.

    I was amused to see the “usability issue” myself, the first time I tried the search field out after seeing this post.

    Personally, I can’t get over the fact that you made a fart joke *laugh* That is so unusual for you! :)

    Fart joke eh? Scorpions lyrics came to my mind in lieu of fart jokes. Moi? Child of the 80′s? Nevar =P

    Scorpions…ah, the memories! Definitely great background music for teh wild-weasel sex. (Except it’s been years since I needed a soundtrack for that. *smirk*)
