RSS Upgrade
I just upgraded this blog's RSS feed from RSS 0.91 to RSS 1.0. I'm hoping this means smoother syndication, as all the entries are now timestamped. I just implemented an RSS story count limiter, so only 5 stories should exist on the RSS feed. Sorry 'bout the aggregator spammage if any occurs; this should be the last time.
Additionally, I updated the code over at my blog such that it avoids a number of bugs in Internet Explorer 6. Of course, it's uglier now if you're using IE6. If you don't like how it looks, note that I'm using standards-compliant code and that you can simply get a better browser. It's also been improved a bit to work better with Lynx, screenreaders, and other non-graphical browsers.

Re: RSS Upgrade
Making things good for screenreaders is Good. More people (large corporations, the entire web) should make things better for screen readers. At the very least, all sites that arepurley or mainly informational should be accessible ito people using screenreaders. And wow, it does look horrid in IE6/Win
Re: RSS Upgrade
It just looks slightly left-justified to me (in IE6). It's as if IE6 just doesn't know what to do with the "center" style formatting command.

It works just fine in IE 5.2 for OS X, though the colors are slghtly different.
