I’ve been thinking of transitioning both my blogs over to WordPress for a while now. The homebrew system I cobbled together a couple of years ago is not exactly extensible, and it outputs bad XHTML code to boot! Plus it didn’t allow for comments, which was a big problem for some (you know who you are). That said, I imagined the process would actually be a lot harder than it was. Even creating a WordPress theme to match the old styling of the site (albeit slightly different from before) wasn’t too difficult. There will probably still be bugs to shake out with the new theme, and the old posts will remain without WP titles forever more, but other than that this blog is back up and running after a minimum of fuss. Amazing.
Um, let me know if anything’s gone horribly wrong. THROUGH THE NEW COMMENTS FEATURE BIATCH, OH YEAH.


Love the ‘Meta Wankery’ category. Welcome to the wonderful world of WP. Not that I had much hand in the techno side of my side design. I don’t get along with the coding part of design.
Hurray for comments. Hurray for you. Thank you and good night.

Woo, WordPress! Yeah! And no more e-mailing my comments!
