  I love the dynamic page titles, but the « is on the index page now. So rather than “Your Blog’s Name Here” it shows “« Your Blog’s Name Here”

  The « is great for seperating the blog’s title and post title, but looks a little out of place on the main page.

  I confess I don’t know what you are referring to. Could you please leave a link as often a visual is worth a thousand words.

  @TT:
  If you look at the very top of your browser on this page you should see – “Page titles << WordPress.com Forums”. If you go to the Forum page, you will just see “WordPress.com Forums” (no little bracket/arrow-looking thingies). Blogs have the bracket/arrow thingies even on the home page and even though it’s not separating the blog title from the name of a post or page. Hope this made sense. This, of course, was the very official geek-speak. ;)

  indeed you’re right. besides the &raquo; character just being terribly unsemantic, having it before the blog title is a really bad idea. It means that blog titles will show up wrong in links, trackbacks, and just about everywhere.

  hopefully this is an accident and will be rectified shortly.

  @sunburntkamel:
  Thanks for pointing out “»”. I wondered why I kept seeing that thing in pingbacks.

  Glad this is fixed. :)

  Sorry. That should have been ». Didn’t want the brackets to appear. ;)
