Exploding Frog

:: Racket, Frog

I’m writing and publishing this post using something other than Frog.

Having said that, I’m not planning to abandon maintaining Frog.

Feed stats in Frog (without FeedBurner)

:: Frog, Google, Atom, RSS

In light of Google shutting down Google Reader and removing feed-following UI in Chrome, it probably can’t be long until they shut down FeedBurner, too.

Although I’m using Google Analytics for this blog, I’m not using FeedBurner. But imagining what feed readership stats I might want, I came up with a short list, and thought about how to get them without FeedBurner.

Frog overview

UPDATE: This was an early post. For up-to-date info, see Frog.

When the code settles down a bit I’ll put it in a GitHub repo, and write a full README.md. Meanwhile, here’s an overview.

Live with Frog

:: blog, Frog, Racket, software

OK, I have my site generated using Frog and pushed it to GitHub Pages for http://www.greghendershott.com.

I want to tweak the CSS. It’s vanilla Bootstrap. Most importantly, I wish the headings were a few points smaller and the body text a few points bigger.

The other remaining item is to do the 301 redirect from Blogger to here. It turns out that this should be ridiculously easy to do with Amazon S3. You can make a bucket that does nothing but perform 301 redirects. I’ve created such a bucket already, and the redirects work fine. I simply need to update my DNS, for which I’m using Amazon Route 53.

Lull while I prepare to change tires

:: software, Racket, blog, Frog

I’d been trying to stick to a roughly Tuesday and Thursday schedule for posting here.

I haven’t this week because I’ve been trying to work up a replacement for using Blogger.

Basically, I want to write posts in simple Markdown, and generate the blog statically. To be hosted on GitHub or S3 or whatever. And I want it to use Bootstrap so I don’t have to reinvent that wheel.
