It's even worse than it appears..
Every social web needs avatars. In an RSS 2.0 feed look for the channel-level image element. It's how they do it in WordPress. #
This is the first day since the NBA playoffs started that there is no scheduled game. I think that's why today feels so weird. #
For some reason every day feels like Saturday. I don't know why.#

You know those obnoxious sites that pop up dialogs when they think you're about to leave, asking you to subscribe to their email newsletter? Well that won't do for Scripting News readers who are a discerning lot, very loyal, but that wouldn't last long if I did rude stuff like that. So here I am at the bottom of the page quietly encouraging you to sign up for the nightly email. It's got everything from the previous day on Scripting, plus the contents of the linkblog and who knows what else we'll get in there. People really love it. I wish I had done it sooner. And every email has an unsub link so if you want to get out, you can, easily -- no questions asked, and no follow-ups. Go ahead and do it, you won't be sorry! :-)
