A couple1 of people have asked what my process is for developing the various Pure Commons apps. This comes after I've mentioned a couple of times that I've released a feature I've been working on for months.

I've never really given it much thought, until I actually used :visited in anger. My feed reader of choice, Miniflux uses the :visited attribute...
