Before you start screaming and throwing things at me, there is a good reason why I haven’t posted in a while. The code that powered this site was ancient, and I couldn’t deal with it anymore. There were just too many things that needed to be changed. What you see now is the first step in a series of updates to our blog. The first change was moving the site to WordPress, the most popular blogging software in the world currently. I simply don’t have the time to reinvent the wheel, nor do I really want to this time around. WordPress is easy to use, speedy, and has a great community behind it. So that’s that.
You may also notice the look is quite a bit different. This will change, actually. This is a free theme that I grabbed until I get around to re-designing everything. I hope to do that in the next couple of months.
Finally, you may come across some missing images, broken links, etc…this is the next thing I hope to fix. Moving to WordPress can be easy from other platforms, but our old one was created from scratch, by yours truly. What this means, is I basically have to roll up my sleeves and go through verifying all images and links. This will take some time, but I don’t want the blog to fall into obscurity, and some of the posts don’t even make sense without the accompanying images.
So those are the changes in a nutshell. The RSS feed has also been updated to http://feeds.feedburner.com/rustyandben. Here’s to a good new year full of great blog posts!
