Pic of the Day: Mixed Characters
Post categories: blogs
| 11:04 UK time, Monday, 10 August 2009
As browndov has noticed you can now use pound signs, quotation marks and other "mixed characters" when making comments on 大象传媒 blogs.
The photo below was taken a couple of weeks ago as the technical team did the work to make this happen. It shows the relating to the change.
Although this is a small (but welcome) improvement, there was a significant amount of technical work involved. Credit should go to Tom and his team.

Talk about standing the world on it's head...
Unless the blogs are going to be turned into competitions I can't see to use those Unicode charters!
The more usual 拢 鈧 $ & 驴 褢 楼 鈾 鈾 charters etc. will be useful though.
Many thanks for everyone's hard work.

I'm not sure about the "significant amount" of technical work -- although I do realise that there will have been testing and database backups and reconfigurations to do -- but the result is definitely an "At last" sigh. Great.
Now, could you reverse the change which means that I appear as "you" in the blogs, please? (Actually I haven't seen any official comment about that change; it just happened. All the comments I have seen have been negative, unfortunately)

Yet another abandoned blog?
Why pollute the sub ether?
