I was having all sorts of blog problems last night, including not being able to post this update about Clipmarks, which I installed and tried to use. I like parts about it but it's really not going to work for me so I don't think I'll continue using it. Two posts that I posted using Clipmarks screwed up my blog and I don't feel like trying to figure out how to make it work.
There were a few other things I didn't like about it too:
- Clipmarks adds a border around their posts which was messing up my blog by pushing my right border off. I couldn't find a decent way to get rid of the border. I also wished it wasn't so large.
- The toolbar was slow to load and slow to clip.
- I couldn't specify tags on the posts through the browser box.
- I couldn't choose a category for my posts either, this would have to be done by logging into my blog admin after I posted.
- My profile page never showed me my clips whenever I was logged in. It looked like it was stil some sort of intro page that I couldn't get out of.
I really like the idea of Clipmarks, there might be something else out there that does a better job and less bulky.
My blog needs some maintanence here and there though, I've been neglecting it these days. I want to add some new services to the sidebar and try to move some things around.
