Feed Lounge

I’m a pretty loyal Bloglines user, with over 300 different subscriptions through that service. I’ve tried some of the other websites out there, but nothing really fit my workflow the same way. That being said, I’m very excited about FeedLounge. Unfortunately it is a closed beta test right now, so all I have are screenshots [...]

The project has been labeled “High Volume Alerts” because of the large number of lab results that are received each day.

LDS Linker Plugin

Comment Spam

I think I’ve figured out the comment spam and I’m getting things worked out to allow comments on my posts. The Spam-Karma plugin is doing a great job, it’s eaten 159 comment spams already.
