Small Suggestion regarding new Meta-Weblog

Evening,

I've been following your new meta-weblog, and quite happy to now have one source for your posts (in fact, I enabled my first RSS widget using your feed, and recently had to raise the post count).

I can only find one small thing amiss (unless you intended it this way). When you access a post directly (as in a link generated from the widget), there is no reference to whom the poster is. In Wordpress, this is normally in the 'sidebar,' but since you don't have one in your format there is no direct reference to the poster.

It should be a simple matter of updating the 'summary data' at the bottom of the post, to add the name (given Wordpress is almost entirely PHP). I'd search through mine to get the exact info, but as I'm using a widgets-enabled theme it's a bit more muddled. ;) One simple alternative (which I use habitially) is to sign the posts all the time, 'sig' or not.

Anyway, no hurry to this one, just a heads-up really.

Still meandering about,

EDIT - I noticed this was fixed now (as of ~ 1 PM SLT). Thanks!

Thank you very much, Alan. Ricky Zamboni also noticed this--it's in the list of things to fix. Much appreciated. :)
