I've made a few more minor changes to the blog software, so let me know if things stop working for some reason. The major differences are that I replaced the calendar control with a monthly archive list, and I also added a "notable entries" sidebar so people can get answers to important questions like "who is this guy?" The software is getting pretty close to what I want, so I'm thinking this is probably the last revision for a while. (Barring some mad inspiration.)

What I'd really like to find is a nice blogging tool that gives me a good WYSIWYG editing experience with stuff like spell checking, along with a good HTML mode, a minimum of weird HTMLisms, support for some API like the Metaweblog API and extensibility. Right now, I'm using Frontpage and pasting it in by hand, but I'm sure sooner or later, I'll go looking for something better...
