blog related: October 2007 Archives

I've decided that, contrary to previous thoughts, I'd start getting back on the blogosphere again. I went straight back to Michele's site and left a comment on her weekend comment game. Then waited for a comment to appear on my blog, only to discover that for people to be able to leave comments they had to create an account on my blog. This is a new feature of MT4, and not one I'm totally happy with. So I've enabled anonymous commenting, and I'll see if I start getting any spam from it.

So, comment away!

Ok, having reimported all the entries from my old blog into this one, and had a bit of fun re-reading them, I've realised that since the structure of the blog has changed, all the links that refer to previous entries are now broken. Is it worth going back through everything and fixing them all? Will I even be able to find the post the link id referring to?

Questions, questions. Anyone out there got any answers?

Today I updated the blogging software from MT3.2 to MT4.01 - I'm still not 100% sure if I like it or not, but it has a few new cool features so I thought I'd go for it. The upgrade, as you can see, went smoothly enough! I also decided to import all the old entries from my previous blog (which I called Brain Download Complete) into this one as well, as it was a shame to lose everything that I'd written in the past. It also means there's a huge gap between October 2005 and July 2007. I didn't lose any entries between these dates - I wasn't blogging then!

Why did I restart? Well, I missed it, quite frankly. I don't know if I'll get into the same level of reading other people's blogs, building up a readership, getting comments and so on. Blogging is a very personal thing (so why put it all on the internet for any old man and his dog to find? Who knows...)

Anyway, it's all back up there, it's all complete, and I'm happy it's all in one place again. Would be a shame to lose all that writing from the past, even if most of it is complete waffle...
