I just published a follow up post, demonstrating how easy it is
to get swizzle assignment.
I also implemented feeds, which can be found here:
Atom: http://www.mmartins.me/feed.xml?atom
RSS: http://www.mmartins.me/feed.xml?rss
Posts are now also properly tagged with meta keywords.
Chris, I kept the title similar to suggest a follow up. I still
think you were right regarding the title policy, and next posts
will have a title more appealing to a broader audience.
Thanks for the feedback guys!
