First new entry on the new site

Okay, that was fun. I reinstalled MT from scratch, imported my entries (old and new -- I also copied the ones from the old Spleenville World Domination HQ blog over, into its own site) and Tim Blair's as well. I redirected the domain name but it will take a day or two to resolve to the new nameservers so my blog is here (http://63.247.131.180/~lilith33/journal/) and Tim's is here (http://63.247.131.180/~lilith33/timblair/).

Further changes: I am not sure I'm going to keep the webmistress-at-spleenville.com address; for now just use my main Earthlink one (it's on the sidebar). I also changed my primary address on Paypal to the Earthlink address, so I updated the donation code.

Another thing: I was going to keep this particular blog for a year, but I have been experimenting with different blogging software, ones built with php, and I might open a new blog in a new folder. We'll see.

I still have to install my plugins and the close-multiple comment script and a few other things. I am doing all of this for fun, right? ;P

Oops, forgot: all the images I had on the other server are still sitting on my hardrive, I have to upload them, right now my old entries that had pictures with them will show pathetic broken image links. Oh well.

"Lilith"? Will you be regaling us with "Vampire: the Masquerade" war stories next? :^)

I LOVE the cartoon on the your title page.

At the risk of being banned, may I suggest if you are at ~lilith33, tim should be at ~frazier33?

Just a thought...

If you're looking at PHP software, make sure to check out B2 (cafelog.com).
I like it more than I liked MT. I know, blasphemy and all that, but its very customizable, clean looking, and does a good job. And thats what is important!

Heh heh. There's a long (boring) history behind the "lilith" name -- but it has nothing to do with Frazier, honest. ;P

Actually, I just have been using it as a log-in name for my various web locations and other things, because it's easier to remember than if I picked some new one.

Chad -- yeah, B2 looks pretty cool. I have a bunch of different sites offering different software bookmarked. I may experiment with them all in turn until I figure out which one I like best...
