Making changes

Published on November 16th, 2007 in Tools: Print This Post

Okay, so, I am changing things yet again with my blog. First off, if you are reading this at MySpace, you are in the wrong place.  Otherwise, you are in the right place.  New theme. You like? Informational links on it are in the footer. It’s called Redoable, and I plan on doing some work to make it a little more “mine” soon, but right now I have neither the time nor inclination to design a theme from scratch. I’m fine with that. For a canned template, this one is pretty nice.

Second, I am giving MySpace the bird. My account will still be there, but my blog is moving here. I have already started migrating my old posts here, which is a tedious manual process, but so far I have everything as far as July of last year. I am actually shocked that no one has written a script yet that can scrape a MySpace blog and convert it into XML that can be imported into other blogs. Wordpress has a number of blog importing tools, but none for MySpace yet. Naturally, MySpace doesn’t want you to leave, so offers no exporting tools besides a weak RSS feed. But that’s exactly the problem. I don’t like not having control over my content. Maybe I’ll get lucky and someone will pull something out in the next couple days, right?

So, this means my original plans for this to be primarily a professional blog have changed. It’s too much trouble to try and maintain different crap at different sites, so this will just cover it all. Maybe a post is personal, maybe it’s professional, maybe it’s something we haven’t even thought of yet. One site, one tool, easy for me. Subscribe to the RSS feed to keep up with it the easy way. I’ll probably syndicate the feed over on MySpace, but it’ll shoot everyone over here.

But, keep in mind the holidays are coming up, plus I’m buying a house today, so I shall remain quite busy for the time being. However I am alive and well with a blood pressure of 156 over 88.
