Hacking Bloglines beta with Stylish

Here’s a bit of CSS for stylish to make the Bloglines beta look a bit more like wordpress. Serif fonts FTW:

@namespace url(http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml);

@-moz-document url-prefix("http://beta.bloglines.com/b/view") {

.fullviewTemplate .templateText {
  font-size: 100% !important;
  font-family: Georgia !important;
  max-width: 40em !important;
}

.fullviewTemplate .bl_title {
  font-size: 200% !important;
  font-family: Georgia !important;
  padding-top: 20px !important;
}

.fullviewTemplate .bl_datetime {
  position: absolute !important;
  top: 0px !important;
  left: 0px !important;
  text-align: left !important;
}

}

Breaking the seal on Bloglines beta

Over at $workplace, we finally pushed out a beta of our redesign ((known affectionately as βloglines)). The redesign is a bit more than just a UI redo; it’s actually a reimplementation from the CGI layer up and takes a much different approach web site construction than the current production site. It’s not quite feature complete vs. the production site, but it’s very useable for day-to-day feed reading for our current users. Definitely check it out and let me know what you think. More to come soon on how we built it and all the fun things we’ve run into. Stay tuned…

Slide 70 is my new desktop

Alex just posted slides from his recent talk on Web Standards and how they help and hurt the web in general. Definitely worth a look.

iBloglines for the iPhone

Tonight we pushed out the code to light up http://i.bloglines.com, a version of Bloglines designed for the iPhone. We consider it to be pretty betaish, but it’s definitely useable and fun.

A big thanks to Joe Hewitt and the folks behind iUI for blazing this trail…

Paul has a much better writeup of where this came from..
