Monday, September 17th, 2007I noticed I was getting hits for my old Movable Type feeds, yet WordPress doesn’t implement the same links by default.
Some mod_rewrite magic did the trick. I wasn’t able to find a clear simple answer anywhere so came up with this pattern. Seems to work great.
RewriteRule ^(rss|rss2|atom).xml /wordpress/?feed=$1 [QSA]
Upgraded to Wordpress
Tuesday, September 11th, 2007Moved the blog from Movable Type 4 beta to WordPress. So far so good. WordPress is easily 3x faster than Movable Type was.
Got everything migrated and setup. Seems just as easy to use.
Blogging Lazyness
Monday, July 2nd, 2007I just was cleaning up stuff and realized I didn’t post once in the month of June!
Thats some lazyness! Guess I just don’t think about blogging as much as I used to.
I was at the annual Perl Conference last week. It was pretty good. At the very least it gave me some good motivation to [...]
Movable Type
Wednesday, April 11th, 2007I’m researching switching to some other blog. Considering WordPress. I just have been sticking with MovableType because it’s written in Perl. It’s been giving me hassles lately. Tried installing some spam stuff and now things are weird.. I’ve got a few hundred posts. We’ll see.
New look by the way. Just trying new things.
Facebook?
Monday, October 9th, 2006Why have I not heard of Facebook before. It’s so well written compared to Myspace. It works in my browser, it doesn’t have auto playing sound clips and things blinking all over the place. It lets you upload unlimited photos. You can find people easier.
And, it integrated my blog into it!
Movable Type
Thursday, September 21st, 2006Well, I upgraded Movable Type and apparently it did not upgrade the mt_session table. So after much stressing over it, I’m finally able to blog again.. Yay!
It really messed up all my templates and stuff, so I hijacked a pre-defined layout.
Working on the Layout
Friday, August 4th, 2006Decided it was time for a face lift of the site. (and maybe some more frequent posts)
Going simple, using css and div’s instead of 10 tables.
New Sidesite
Thursday, December 9th, 2004Kinda got up a quick ham site http://ke5dey.mikedaddy.com.
Threw up a few links and a wee bit about me.
Whoa 300 posts!
Monday, November 29th, 2004I just noticed my last post was my 300th post! Thats pretty cool, doesnt seem like that many.
MT Upgrade Finally
Monday, August 23rd, 2004Wow, I finally took the plunge and upgraded my Movable Type installation to version 3.0. Many visual improvements, although a rebuild of my site seems to take a wee bit longer than on MT 2.661. Fixed the comment templates too. We’ll see how this pans out.
