Truncation, jump breaks and stupid google reader

Posted on | Saturday, 20 November 2010 | No Comments

One day this will work perfectly. One day I'll figure out the EXACT combination of options to make this work. One day I will know enough HTML to make it so google reader doesn't mess up my posts.

"It'll show the first 250 character OR the first paragraph - whatever is shorter." Google must have very stringent rules about paragraph lengths because I cannot for the life of me figure out how this works. "Jump breaks" only work on the main blog page, convenient for hiding spoilers, but not for truncating posts for feed readers.

Damn you technology - you win again.

In other news I've decided to do a diary of my Planescape: Torment playthrough. It should be fun, if a little infuriating as isometric "old school" RPGs frustrate me to no end with some pretty archaic design - specifically relating to UI. I'm told by reliable sources that it's one of the finest RPGs ever.

We shall see.
