First off I wanted to let everyone know that the Ping-o-Matic<\/a> XML-RPC interface is up and running. So to ping all those services with one fast and automatic step, follow these instructions:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Login<\/li>\n
  2. Go to Options → Writing<\/li>\n
  3. Erase anything you may have in “Update Services” and just put http:\/\/rpc.pingomatic.com\/<\/code><\/li>\n
  4. Watch how fast your posting goes<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Pinging multiple update services is often the slowest part of any blogging system’s posting, and we’ve designed the pingomatic interface to be as fast as humanly possible. Try it out.<\/p>\n

    I also wanted to thank Robin Millette<\/a> for tracking down the CSS that was causing several versions of Mozilla and Firefox to slow to a crawl and often crash on this site. I was perplexed because the markup and CSS validated, and I couldn’t find what could be causing such a bizarre problem. Robin tracked it down to a duplicate body<\/code> selector that wasn’t really needed so I removed it and the problem seems to have gone away. It was obviously a bug in Mozilla’s rendering engine but it seems to be fixed in the newer versions already. Mozilla bugs like this are so rare I was sure it was a problem with the site. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
