Notes

• science blog feeds (from Jason):

looks like this: http://feeds.feedburner.com/scienceblogs/pharyngula

we might consider setting ours up like that as well. e.g. http://feeds.feedburner.com/openwetware/shareyourscience would be the name of mine.

• From Jenny: the font I used was ITC Franklin Gothic Book. Jason was wondering about the font being square. Any of the Franklin Gothic fonts will give you the "roundedness" that the theme has that I drafted.
• From http://pineda-krch.com/2007/07/08/hello-world/ via Jason:
  • Subscribe to Comments plugin
  • syntax highlighting for code
