Very cool. This should help out BlogRoots quite a bit too. Thanks, Matt.

Great! Fits perfectly! Thanks, Matt.

P.S. Just don't put a MeTa sidebar on BlogRoots!

I'll probably trim the number of posts shown, as ten seems like too many.

Neat. And a damn fine idea.

When I collapse the sidebar I get a horizontal scrollbar w/Mozilla 1.3.1 under XP, 1024x768.

One-stop shopping! Very nice.

Very, very cool. The only flaw is that my rather weak post is up there... ;)

I'm going to say this to keep myself honest, but we're shooting for July 1st as a launch date for our new project. Now that I've let that slip, I really have to do it.

I can't understand why this happened. I read the requests and things, but it's still as clear as mud.

I do understand that weblog-related posts are filed in a different circular bin, but their relevance to MetaTalk is still mysterious.

hama7: MetaTalk used to have a "general weblog-related" that Matt closed to new threads when Blogroots went live last summer. Some of us were big fans of that category and have had trouble making the transition to the new site. The sidebar should help us do so by increasing traffic on Blogroots. It's a Good Thing™.

I hope you're all perfectly conscious that Matt hez vays uf knoving who amongst you is collapsing the BlogRoots sidebar...
posted by MiguelCardoso at 10:07 AM on May 14, 2003

It's a perfectly nice sidebar and all, but it pretty well hoses the page for the non-frames, non-CSS browser I use on my old-ass laptop. Perhaps if Metatalk had a lofi.mefi equivalent...

Yes. You really do. Before I AIM you again. Do not make me AIM you again. ;-)

Ah. Now I see. Many thanks.
