Topic: Attention Zarban, and other DIF-linkers.

You know that Holden guy? The genius behind the execution of my ridiculous whims?

Now, on DIF's home page, clicking on the poster for whatever episode you're looking at redirects you to a permalink.

This means none of you have an excuse not to spam everyone you know with links to your favorite episodes.




Additionally, because it's long overdue, if you type in ": pimp :" (without the spaces or quotes) you get a picture of Holden with a cigar.

THIS IS AWESOME.

Every site needs a picture of Holden as their pimp icon.

I've already converted all the links on The House of Commentaries to the new form. However, I notice this glitch: if you click on a movie then click on its poster, you indeed get the permalink. But if you then click on another poster (or pretty much anything else), the URL doesn't change to the new permalink. This will inevitably lead surfers to sometimes link to the wrong commentary.

I say defeating the ancient HTML URL structure only results in heartache.

Warning: I'm probably rewriting this post as you read it.

That new press room link is spiffy.

Hm, good catch. That seems like that should be fixable. Will work on it in my spare time this week.
