   ## 󠀁[Rating System](https://alex.kirk.at/2005/10/31/rating-system/)󠁿
   
 * October 31, 2005
 * I have now integrated a rating system to blummy. You can rate blummlets at the“
   view code” page and the “Rate” link on the top left.
    Furthermore there is the
   first library function for blummy: `Blummy.getSelection()`. It will retrieve 
   the selection not only in IE and Firefox but also in Safari. If no selection 
   is given you can add a string as parameter that will serve as question in the
   prompt box.

   ## 󠀁[Bugfixes and Interface improvements](https://alex.kirk.at/2005/10/30/bugfixes-and-interface-improvements/)󠁿
   
 * October 30, 2005
 * I’ve released a new revision of blummy with the following changes:
    - [Bugfix] Improved HTTP Headers for Caching (now ETag and Last-Modified).
    - [GUI] Now there is a loading sign for ongoing searches.
    - [GUI] Predefined searches such as Random or Most Popular have been moved to
      tabs.
    - [GUI, Feature] You can resize a blummlet now by using the shift-key.
    - [GUI] A grid is shown on blummy to make it more obvious that the drag and 
      drop function provides snapping to that grid.
    - [Feature] You can now specify to be logged in automatically on each visit.
 * The first point may be the most important one. It should improve speed of loading
   enourmously. Please give me some feedback if it works for you. Also any other
   feedback such as feature requests or bug reports are welcome.
