RasterWeb: Misc: Some Weblog

There's a cron job that calls a perl script that pulls one entry from an XML file once a day. So each day you hit the home page there's a new one. This is useful for me because there's a chance I'll follow that link ;) and maybe discover a cool site. It's useful for other because it shares the flow...

The XML file comes from WebLogs.com's XML based backend. Download it from here: http://static.userland.com/weblogMonitor/logs.xml

This isn't a true XML app, it's just plain old ugly perl code. "Perl, it gets the job done!" right?

There's also a cron entry that calls a perl script to update my local copy of the logs.xml file. FOO!
