Blogger Yolk: Feel free to download skins, three column templates for Blogger.

I was creating a Google gadget that displays a feed from one of my New Blogger blogs and realized the order of the feed seemed wrong. The problem was that post where sorted by update instead of the date published. If I updated an old post it would mess up the order.

I know, I know I'm bragging. Since January 22, when I first uploaded the template there have been hundreds of downloads. To some projects that number is nothing but to me it's pretty cool. I'm pleased people are digging it and I get lots of nice emails and comments. If you have some sort of talent, I strongly recommend creating a project ( maybe GPL ) and giving back to a community who has given us so much. It just feels good. People like Linus Torvalds, Richard Stallman must feel overwhelming joy knowing their contributions have literally changed the world in a positive way.

There have been over 100 downloads and who knows how many subversion checkouts of the Blogger-Yolk Blogger template! Why is this exciting? I am glad it is successful. By successful I mean people are using it, I have no complaints and I'm getting some positive feedback.
