Technical Difficulties

I tried to go in and fix the widget today with no luck. It looks like I'm locked out of my newsgator account. I'll see if I can't fix it tonight when I get a chance...

Streetsblog.net

I'm not going to get rid of CTA but I hope that some of you migrate over the Streetsblog.net and check out what the folks there have put together. I don't seem to have the time to keep up TOW and CTA at the same time (it does a lot of the work itself but still) but these guys will take care of the blogosphere aggregation!

Testing Newsgator Pro Account

So I talked to Newsgator and have upgraded the feed display to professional for half a month so we can make it the way we want it. I'm not sure however if I can expand it past twenty feeds. If that's so, we might have to look for something else. We've gotten so many feeds and people post so often that things often disappear by the middle of the day and that is one of the things we want to change.

Also, if anyone is good at CSS or HTML and wants to help fix this up let me know. I know some basic html code, but not enough to get deep into it.

Populating Authors, Not Blogs

I've noticed as have a few of you that the blog author's name comes up under the post title instead of the blog. I'm working on changing it back because its something that I didn't do. Thanks for your patience.

Add CTA to YOUR Blog

If you like reading the CTA feed but don't want to have to keep coming back to the CTA site, you can put it in your blog. I didn't realize you could do this before but after visiting a few sites such as RT Driver I saw folks could add the widget to their sites and it updates as I update the links to CTA. So its kind of like inbeding a youtube video, just click 'Get This' at the bottom of the widget above and add the code to a section of your blog.

Strange Newsgator Issues Resolved

Sorry but for the moment the feed for Newsgator isn't working... I'll try to work on it so we can get our news back!

Update: Seems to be working again. If you want to post comments use this post instead of the one below.

Welcome

This site is a pro-transit blog aggregator. Hopefully folks will be able to use it and suggest blogs that might be a part of this. I'm still working out some of the kinks and if anyone has any suggestions let me know. theoverheadwire at gmail dot com.

A note on the feed: It takes about an hour or so for posts to go up. I don't have control over that so I apologize. I'm also not censoring or screening posts just to let you all know, I like reading all the opinions and realistically there is just too much information to comb through. Some of you have already confessed to this site being a time suck. But that's a good thing!
