I’ve been meaning to do a thorough overhaul of the site for quite awhile, but just haven’t gotten around to it. So this afternoon I decided just to start with broad gestures: New domain, new webhost, new CMS, and here we are. Most old links still work, some of the older photo entries are busted. The changes would be a bit further along, except I left it at one point to play croquet in the park.
It looks awesome, Jeff. I’ve been meaning to overhaul mine, too. I want to switch from Moveable Type to WordPress. Mostly because wordpress offers a better organisational structure and I hear is better at warding off spammed comments which I get a ton of. Did you do a switch like that? Was it hard to export old entries into a new blog?
Thanks, Sam.
The basic export and import couldn’t be any easier. I made it a little more difficult in order to save old permalinks from linkrot. I’ll post some notes on my export/import customizations sometime this week.
