The new design is live and in living color. There are now RSS feeds for your favorite WTMJ bloggers, and soon Charlie will have comments.
The bad news is you do need to fix your blogrolls. I’ll get you started:
Sykes Writes – http://www.620wtmj.com/shows/charliesykes
Wagner on the Web – http://www.620wtmj.com/shows/jeffwagner
Revisions/extensions (11:53 am 6/19/2007) – Almost forgot to mention; I’ve survived another round of Charlie’s blogroll updates. I must’ve picked up a lifetime exemption from the Sykes Cement Overshoes because I successfully tested them many moons ago.
Revisions/extensions part 2 (1:50 pm 6/19/2007) – The WTMJ RSS feeds are not showing up in Google Reader (it can’t find them even though the feeds do validate). I don’t know if that’s a function of the RSS version they’re using (0.92) or the lack of descriptions (it doesn’t affect SharpReader, IE 7 or Firefox). They’re on it.
Revisions/extensions part 3 (2:20 pm 6/19/2007) – The problem with Google Reader is apparently a DNS issue, or at least that’s the current word out of Radio City. Doesn’t quite sound right to me (I don’t believe they changed the IP address), though it would (potentially) be consistent with complaints about people getting the old site. If that’s the case, it could be up to another 45 hours before Google Reader catches up (it takes up to 48 hours for a DNS change to make it through the Internet). It could also be that Google hasn’t gone through the new site yet with its spiders (which again doesn’t sound quite right).
Last revision/extensino (1:02 pm 6/20/2007) – Google Reader now recognizes the feeds. They still don’t send out so much as a summary, which isn’t a problem with SharpReader (I just have it open up the entire page, just like I do with sites that send out only excerpts).
