Changing platforms

I’ve decided to move my blog to WordPress, a far more powerful and easy-to-use blog platform than Blogger.  I’ll detail a few of the niftier features available in WordPress.  Click on the “More” button below…

  • Well, there’s one… the ability to split a post into a lead-in and an extended entry.  That means I’ll be able to post long entries without them taking over the whole front page.
  • There’s a search engine in the upper right hand corner, so if you want to see everything I’ve written about No Country For Old Men, for example, you can type it in the search engine and all those entries will display.
  • The categories work much better, so you can click on ‘2007 DVD reviews’ over there on the right-hand side ‘Categories’ box and you’ll see all my reviews of movies I watched on DVD.
  • Commenting should be much easier now, and links to the most recent comments will be linked up in another box on the right-hand side.  I expect many more comments now!
  • The wide-screen format means everything fits better on the page.

So please adjust your bookmarks to link to this page instead of the other one.  The new link is:

    I’m looking for ways to pretty it up… WordPress offers a lot of templates but I’m having trouble finding one that doesn’t screw up the right rail. It will be prettier, don’t worry. 🙂

    OK. But I liked the look of the other one.
