There wasn't much publishing going on here since I switched from Drupal to python-based Kukkaisvoima. On one hand that was because of a new job situation. Just didn't have the time to write alot. On the other hand I still wasn't satisfied by the security (anti-spam) mechanisms offered by the minimalistic software. So, during the holidays I started enhancing this thing a little with a sweet anti-spam mechanism based on 
respectively mimetex (I hope you like math! :)).
Today I finished the second feature which you can see on the right: the microblog badge. It fetches my identi.ca statuses via status.net api using the command line microblogging client pyTwerp written in Python. Since it is developed for output to stdout no HTML is generated. Hence no hyperlinks to users, tags, groups and other locations are formatted. So, I had to refresh my regular expression skills to make the hyperlinks show up. To integrate the script into the blog layout I used the example code snippet of Michael Gangolf's PHP-based laconi.ca badge. Two into one... badge done!
I guess from now on there aren't any more serious reasons to excuse the low frequent blog post situation here... poor me!
