OK, so I have a new convention.
I've been using "cuts" for my blog entries on FOB. I'm told that this will "cut" down my readership, but I'm trying to be courteous and let the reader decide how interested they are before bombarding them with text.
Since the fact that the article has more beyond the cut is not too obvious from the style, I've been using ellipsis right before the cut to indicate a continuation…
Unfortunately, even I still get confused and forget there's a cut. Hence, the New World Order. From now on, my blog entries will end with my shiny new FOB smiley. So until you see one of those, the blog entry isn't over. Probably because it has got a cut.
If somebody with edit privs wants to go back and fix my old blog entries to follow this convention, that would be cool. Fixing the earlier articles to use the HTML entity "…" instead of "..." for the ellipsis while you're there would be good too. Otherwise I'll eventually get it done myself, probably via a direct SQL query.
Smileys rule. (B)
