Change Log

• Restricted sidebar blog listing to specific category where applicable and only those updated in the last week -- 20030803
• Changed blog posts listing to a maximum of 50 records -- 20030803
• Added "Top of the Goog", an interesting look at the Goog's most valued blogs -- 20030803
• Implmented full text search using Verity (over 10,000 posts indexed) -- 20030803
• Updated googimporter to respond with a standard weblogs ping response. This was causing MoveableType to report an error when there was none -- 200307
• Added "datetimeimported" to blogentries, now ordering by import timestamp (gave up on authors getting things right! -- 20030628
• Adjust for GMT offset in "datetimecreated" -- 200306 (thanks Spike!)
• Added clickthrough stats mechanism -- 20030427
• Added change log -- 20030427

Known Issues

• RSS 0.91-2 blogs have no date entries per item (not much we can do about this - encourage blog writers to upgrade their feed) Dates for these feeds are calculated based on the feed build date as the first item and each subsequent posting being one day into the past. For those authors that tend to post many times in one day the date will be out of whack... sorry (think of upgrading to RDF 1.0)
• The builddate for some RSS 0.91-2 blogs is calculated incorrectly. The code actually defaults to now() in the event that the date cannot be determined from the feed. Am sure with a little bit of effort i can make the date parsing routines more robust. (done 20020709)

Suggestions From The Great Unwashed
Let me know what you'd like and I'll see what I can do to get it into the Goog development schedule.
