Well, the decision has been made. After spending a long night happily geeking out with a test instance of WordPress, I’ve decided I’m going to migrate to it for the site. I’ll still be crossposting over to LiveJournal, but I really like the idea of having the blog actually part of the site rather than being imported from elsewhere. Many thanks to Mortaine for letting me know about WordPress in the first place.
I’ll be switching over domain hosts to boot, since my host only works minimally with WordPress, and there are enough features that I want and will use, it’s worth it to go ahead and make the switch. I’d not been thrilled with my host for a while, but just didn’t have a compelling reason to move until now.
Additionally, it gives me a geek project to work on for a while, which I didn’t realize how much I needed until I was up until all hours last night trying to get the theme and layout the way I wanted. It’s also a great distraction from my ear infection. (As is the big honkin’ latte my brother just brought me. He’s good to have around.)
Eventually the older posts will all be transferred over and everything will be here.
