Welcome to the New Blog

I’ve updated my blog to WordPress. It’s been a long time coming, but I finally put aside the time to do it last night. Please let me know ASAP if you notice any problems. I’m still getting some things configured, but so far so good. Using WordPress should give me a lot more flexibility than I had before, and not having my blog on an Open Source platform always bothered me. Once things stabilize, I’ll be adding some additional bells and whistles. One huge problem I’ve run into is that the old permalinks are currently broken. This is very bad. The problem is that Blogware doesn’t export the needed information to migrate this information. I’ve sent them an email to see if they can do it for me manually. In the meantime I have 302’d everything I could. When going to an old article, you’ll get redirected to a list of posts from that day. If Blogware is able to send me the information I want, I’ll update the system to 301 you to the correct post. I really apologize for the breakage and hope it will be cleaned up soon. The feed entry you have should be transparently updated already. The only other issue I see is that the export didn’t respect line breaks in a sane way, so some posts are ugly. I’ll manually clean up at least the posts on the home page. Let me know how things are operating from your end. Thanks ;)
