Actually, using the term “Most Popular Posts” is a bit presumptuous for my humble little corner of the blogosphere with its three readers. But what the hay – it’s a nice way to highlight posts from the past that garnered some commentage.
I wrote a new snapon yesterday on the bus: it’s called MostCommentedPosts and you can see it in action in the left navbar (if you’re using theme Bloos_Riff) or in the right navbar (if using Bloo_Classic or Blue). It’s a concept I came up with many moons ago on Thinklings mainly to keep the Gatorade Post alive somehow (Bird was in a near panic that his magnum opus was about to drift off the front page ;-). Of course, I wasn’t the first one with this idea and you see similar lists all over the blogosphere.
Watch me for the changes . . .
Update: – Well, really, a clarification. I’m sure you are all wondering why this wasn’t part of a new release? Actually, I’m quite sure none of you care :-), but for completeness let me ‘splain. The releases are for the base Bloo product. This is an extension SnapOn (kind of like a WordPress plugin, except it’s a SnapOn, not a Plugin, darnit!). Extension SnapOns and Themes are not part of the base product and will be rolled out separately.
Dude, I totally care. SnapOn’s rule!
That post is pretty crazy; very much like the Kottke Matrix Reloaded thread
