Hm. Basically done?

I started working on this blog in march or so. I didn't have a fixed, set list of features. I just knew roughly what I wanted it to be able to do, and mostly I was looking for a good, effective way to express myself about programming.

After my most recent changes to get decent pagination and make it work with my post tagging, I think I've scratched my personal itch with this. I plan to keep using and maintaining it, of course. But I think this blog, as a little simple app, now does what I want it to do.

Not many of my projects get to that point, ever. That's one of the really cool things about building something I want, for the things I use it for... It's possible to get done. Somehow when I build for other people, I can always come up with an unending feature list of stuff they might want some day...

But when it's for me, I get to say, "okay, it works now."

I'm enjoying that a lot right now.
