I am having fun playing with Blogger and expandable posts. I wanted to know how to shrink the posts so that people could look through the blog and tell at a glance if they are interested in a particular entry. So I followed "Hacking The Blogger Matrix" to find directions on how to create expandable post summaries using CSS. It is not automatic, but I do not want to rely on JavaScript, which the "show/hide links" method requires.
Problem is, the "read more" is showing up where it shouldn't, like every post. *sigh* UPDATE: I hacked a bit more and fixed that problem, but create another one. After more hacking... I finally added "Display Entire Post" in the footer. :-)
Anyway, you can check out the May 2nd post off the May 2005 archive page to see what I mean. Let me know if you like this, or if it just wastes your time by making you click on "Display Entire Post"
In the (near?) future, I plan on splitting this blog vertically. I'll be posting all the "Keeping Up" and "cute cat" posts on the left, and the "computer news" and "deep thoughts" on the right.
