Glacial Erratics

I've decided to give the blog a face lift as preparation for experimenting with some interface changes. I had to get things looking interesting enough to make it worth playing. For now the changes only show up on the front page.    (PMM)

Syndication is killing the showy blog, so this may all be pointless, but I need somewhere to experiment.    (PMN)

Basic ideas are:    (PMO)

• only have one entry on the front page    (PMP)
• comments will initially be hidden from view, with a click to show them and to add one, eventually with something ajax, so as to be fully buzzword compliant    (PMQ)
• the word contextualize will provide information about trackbacks, technorati cosmos, and other methods for finding other things related to this thing, also ajax    (PMR)
• rather than a blogroll, a sorted list of who I've read recently, based on data farmed out of Netnewswire somehow    (PMS)

Seems to work fine in Firefox and Safari. If it blows up or looks ugly for you, please let me know.    (PMT)
