Notes


gollark: I'm considering it.
gollark: I think I can make it an animated rainbow thanks to the wonders of CSS.
gollark: Here it is displaying some slightly longer description bits (with HTML support, too).
gollark: I also made the date format slightly nicer, though it doesn't improve aesthetics. Any more ideas?
gollark: V1.1 (right sort order, too)
