Poor mans café mocha

Story location: Home / Blog / work /
18/Jul/2005

I was in the kitchen in work making myself a cup of tea and there was someone else in there, making a cup of cocoa. Before adding the water, he added a spoon of coffee. I've been drinking cocoa and coffee mixed together for years (when I used to work for a chemical company, the canteen had a free drinks machine and I used to get a cup each of cocoa and coffee and mix them together). I was surprised to see someone else doing this so I mention that I do that as well. We were both glad to find someone else who drinks "poor man's mocha".


Storyfilter plugin

Blosxom is a pretty good bit of blog software but it's main weakness is the inability to place a story into several categories without duplicate postings. This plugin is an attempt to recify that.
Storyfilter maintains a list of keywords and allows stories to be selected according to keywords. The keywords associated with each story can be displayed and if the user clicks on one, blosxom will display only those stories which contain that keyword.

Download the plugin (version 0.16). Full instructions are included in the zip file.

The plugin is still in it's early stages of development and should be considered a very early beta. At the moment, when a keyword is selected, blosxom will only display stories which have been viewed since the plugin was installed. This is because as stories are viewed, the keywords are be added to a list. I hope to rectify this in a later version.
