Another Ounce Update

During my much-needed post-new-website downtime, I made some updates to Ounce.

• I fixed the bug causing some videos to show up as broken images. This is actually a bug in Pownce’s API, which categorizes video content as “photos.”
• YouTube videos are now embedded inline.
• I added support for the new bang-user construct, so links like !andrewwatt will remain links in Ounce’s feed. Also, I can’t be the only one who thinks it’s funny that that could reasonably be pronounced as “bang Andrew Watt.”
• There is now a second feed available that contains the public notes of just your friends (and, ostensibly, people of whom you are a fan). If you have a lot of friends and want to follow all of them via RSS, this is probably more convenient than adding each feed to your reader individually. To get your friends’ feed URL, simply append ”/to” to your own feed. Or generate it directly from Ounce.
• I created a new logo, as shown above, explicitly for the purpose of submitting Ounce to Pownce’s tools/apps directory.

All of these changes are effective immediately, so no action is necessary on your part (except for the new friends feed, if you want to use it).
