How long?
I've finally managed to find the time to amend my blosxom setup to stop the timestamp and links attached to each entry from annoying me. Replacing posted with timestamp may seem like an inconsequential change, but owing to the way I do things (with shell scripts, CVS, Makefiles, and a test site) the time you see is not the time I posted. As for the permanent link - well I do most things from the command line, so being able to see where something lives avoids the need to figure stuff out.
In all it only took fifteen minutes, which is daft as I've been meaning to for an age. There is probably a lesson in there somewhere. But then if everything I've been meaning to took fifteen minutes I'd be need a week. So I doubt such a lesson would be useful. Ho hum...
