Weeell I just uploaded the (not yet released) 1.1 of NotSSG to my own site so I can test it for a bit, 5 minutes before I go to sleep. Seems pretty solid, but let me know if anything explodes! :D NotSSG 1.1 will include HTML cache busting, the ability to put layout.js wherever you want, and I think I added something else, but I've forgotten what it was while typing this (I have it written down somewhere).

Right at this moment, 100% of my subscribers say they are happy they subscribed. Sure, my only subscriber right now is me. But I'd still say that's good happy subscriber ratio for day 1.

Well, I've learned HTML file cache busting IS possible. I thought it wasn't. Now it HAS to go into NotSSG. So this is just me experimenting and getting an idea of how it works.

Thank you! That's honestly really great to hear! Simplicity was my absolute top priority with this project (both for myself and others who may use it), and a lot of thought went into that aspect of it!

Just spruced up this page a bit! I hope it gives a better picture of what NotSSG actually does than before. xD

Because of this feature, you'll now see ?cb=xxx in the address bar, and in links when browsing my site. This ensures repeat visitors get the latest version of my site (rather than a cached version), without them having to F5 or Ctrl+F5. It's divided into 15m buckets to be server/bandwidth friendly.
Ooo! I definitely want to learn how to do the cache busting. Thank you!
