The previous post was an example of a Linked List / Linklog post. The characteristics being that the post title links to an external page, and the formatting is slightly different.

It took me a little while to get this feature working in Octopress, as this post on GitHub seems a bit outdated. Thanks to Neal Sheeran for his post suggesting to use the 2.1 branch instead of the linklog-test branch. After pulling that branch and merging conflicts I was able to get things working properly.

A last note, there are some configuration options for changing the style of the linked list posts. At some point I’ll have to decide on what side of the Gruber/Armet line I fall. For now I’ll stick with the defaults.
