In the right column, you’ll see I added my blog description (the “Being a blog…” part). Since I wanted that to be justified so that it would look better, I went ahead and manually hyphenated two words so that the text block looked more organic. It looks fine to me on my PC in both IE and Firefox. Can someone report how it looks on other computers? Since that column is fixed width, it should look the same on every computer, but you never know.

Also, I haven’t tried to manually hyphenate something in a long time; if I did it wrong, please let me know.

And on a mostly unrelated subject, I note that the poll I posted is centered and looks fine in Firefox, but in IE, though the poll box is centered, the text within the box is also centered, which screws up the formatting. Why? Gods, why? Grrr. It’s hard enough making a website look right in one browser, let alone two.
