"Google has begun to introduce a feature whereby, if your search obviously leads you to a single site (e.g., you searched on a company name), you get a second search box to search only within that site. More details at Google and Search Engine Land. Basically, this is Google Site Search made a lot easier to use (read blog entry)."

Hi,
“Control” is way overstated — there are dozens of editors with authority to override anything I do in DMOZ.
Anyhow, the main reason I’m commenting is to tell you that you have serious UI problems in FireFox. IE works fine for me, but things are horrifically scrunched up in FF.
Best,
CAM
Curt thanks for your comment - i did not have a migration landscape for testing upgrades to my Movable Type platform… and missed testing with Firefox. I have reverted to archived templates until I have a better grasp of the issue.
An observation on my experience with Moveable Type: Though my “real” job is enterprise architecture and SAP Netweaver BI, I’ve enjoyed dabbling with more advanced blogging functionality using Moveable Type on my own domain. However, like many others I’ve found that when there is a coding error such as the problem that you observed Curt, the diagnosis becomes time-intensive.
A giant segue - taking the application governance view of “great features” vs. “support costs”, this is generally a key issue that we don’t often have tools to quantify when buying or managing our enterprise applications, do you think? It just seems to me that the investment around measurement of application effectiveness and ROI pales in comparison to what we spend for hardware and software…. virtually invisible.
My blog problem inconvenienced you and other users, but how about enterprise apps we buy, the support costs of which are never tracked? Ideas?
