But change IS gonna come! I am finally about to change this blog over from the blogger platform (which is great for simple publishing) to WordPress (which is simply the bomb). I use WordPress on Orange Politics already. I love it because it’s open source and easy and powerful and flexible. And today they have released WordPress 1.5 which has tons of huge improvements!
Along with the platform change will come a long-overdue redesign. There could also be some bumps in the road, so please be patient if you try to load the site and get errors or things look funny. And pray hard with me that I am somehow able to import all the old comments.
I’m not sure what your hosting situation is, but have you thought about forwarding your old Blogger permalinks to your current WordPress permalinks?
Bruce, I would love to do that, but I’m not sure how. The blogger links look like this: https://lotusmedia.org/blog/2005_02_01_archive.html#110868102032331230
Of course, I have a number of options about formatting the WP permalinks on this end. They currently look like this: https://lotusmedia.org/1030/
(I don’t have the post title in it because some of my older posts don’t have titles.)
There are several ways I can think of to do this. If you are going to be at the Chapel Hill Meetup tomorrow, we could talk about them a bit. I’ll probably be late. I don’t normally get off work until 6pm.
