Speech bubbles in the RSS feed

People get me and Kyeli mixed up all the time. We work together so closely, it’s easy to do. This morning, Jessica Van Hove made a great suggestion to help out with this. (Thanks, Jessica!)
You know those speech bubbles at the bottom of each post with the picture of whoever wrote the post? We added those to the website so it would be easier to tell us apart. But lots of people read our blog via an RSS reader, and because of the way Wordpress works, the speech bubbles and pictures only showed up on the website, not in the RSS feed.
Today I did some Wordpress hacking and finally got it to work! YAY! *happy dance*
If you’re reading this in an RSS reader, you’ll (hopefully) see my smiling face at the bottom. I’d appreciate feedback on how it looks for you!
Our blog now has speech bubbles!

Several people have remarked that it’s not easy for them to identify which of us posts which posts. So we made a fun new speech bubble thingamajig! At the bottom of each post, the blog will display an icon of whichever one of us posted it, along with a speech bubble. It probably won’t show up in the RSS feed, though, just in the blog. So if you’re reading this in an email or a feed reader, click through so you can see the pretty new shiny thing! (:
I like blogs! Do you like blogs too?

I’ve found some new and excellent blogs and RSS feeds to read lately, and I want to share them with you. I used to bookmark sites that updated their content regularly or occasionally, but now that I learned how to use Google Reader, it’s so much easier. I can add more blogs and feeds without it taking up a lot more of my time or annoyance. In the past month I’ve gone on a feed-adding spree! Here’s what I’ve been enjoying.
I’d also love to hear what you’re reading and enjoying!
