Planet Panther β

Voice of the Elder blogging community

About pP

Planet Panther is a daily look at the Archbishop Elder HS blogosphere. pP syndicates blogs, LiveJournals, Xangas, Yahoo! Groups, and more, all by Elder students and teachers.

It was started on April 1st, 2005, by , using the Planet aggregation software. This site is still in beta-testing (hence the giant letter β up top), and many more features are in the works. If have any suggestions for improving pP, tell Minh about it!

Want to be syndicated here? If you currently live or work at Archbishop Elder High School, and you have a blog of some sort, let Minh know about it! Just provide your name, your class year (department or position if you’re an adult), and the URL (Web address) of your blog. As a bonus, you can even have your head featured next to each of your posts (like an avatar). Send me your photo or really sloppy drawing (faces only, please), and I can include it right here!

Note for those who didn’t get the joke: It’s April Fool’s! This website actually syndicates St. X students, and it will return to being called Planet Xavier tomorrow.

At the behest of various Elder students, I have started a Planet for them. Go Panthers!

Excessively long entries will be truncated or omitted entirely if necessary. Rule of thumb: if it’s more than three screens long using a 1280×800 resolution (in 12pt Times New Roman), it’s probably going to get truncated. (Hat tip to Eric Webb.)

13 January 2005

Planet Xavier has been upgraded to run on Planet 1.0.0 (development version). I’m reintroducing the Xangas here all at one time, and a ton of backdated entries will appear on top at first; they will gradually get pushed down. Please pardon the sawdust.

1 January 2005

All Xangas and Aiesec Manila blogs have been temporarily removed, because of the lack of any sort of date element. They are currently listed here.

Planet is a flexible feed aggregator. It downloads news feeds published by web sites and aggregates their content together into a single combined feed, latest news first.

Planet Panther currently uses Planet 1.0.0 from the “shiny development code” in Scott Remnant’s arch repository. Minh has modified Planet’s “fancy” templates to provide, among other things, this page. He uses Allaire HomeSite 4.0 (now Macromedia HomeSite) for text-editing.
