This is a script I wrote for personal use. The output can be seen on https://likho.neocities.org/microblog/index.html. I figure someone else may want to use it for their own personal websites, so it is published.
It works for me and my workflow; therefore, it is simple and involves little lines of code. But I am still open to comments, questions, or suggetions.
