Scripting News, the weblog started in 1997 that bootstrapped the blogging revolution.
A new feature for story pages

A picture named love.gifA simple new feature, story pages now have a cookie crumb navigation trail at the top of each page, pointing to the day, month, year and entire archive. This way, when the story is indexed in a search engine, you can find your way back to the context in which the story appeared.  Permanent link to this item in the archive.
PS: I added a second new feature. Each paragraph on each story page now has a purple pound sign linked to a permalink for the paragraph, making it possible to point to individual paragraphs inside stories.  Permanent link to this item in the archive.
