New Blog Software!

10:45 am October 27th, 2008

This blog is now powered by Wordpress! I switched over from Blogger in part because Wordpress offers more features and extensibility — like that tasty tag cloud over there — and also in part because I keep the free-as-in-beer-and-speech Wordpress code on my own server, where I can read and modify it, or not, to my heart’s content. Ah, delicious freedom!

Plus, Wordpress was not only super-easy to install and set up, but importing all my old Blogger posts and implementing redirects from the Blogger page addresses and feeds to the new versions took just a few minutes. It’s not surprising that Wordpress is considered the best blogging platform out there!

It’s sporting the default Wordpress theme for now, but expect an exciting redesign of both this blog and my portfolio site in the coming weeks!
