Email subscriptions and RSS

Monday, August 18th, 2008

I have added a new page that allows you to sign up to receive an email each time I post a new blog entry. It also mentions RSS and Google Reader, my RSS reader of choice.

For those of you using WordPress for your blog, I’m using the Subscribe2 plugin for the email functionality. It was nice and easy to setup.

The blog is back

Tuesday, August 5th, 2008

Hi everyone. I’ve been wanting to post to my blog now for quite some time, but my WordPress installation was way out of date. I’ve been procrastinating on upgrading for a while because I knew it would be painful.

Today I bit the bullet, wiped the old version, and installed WordPress from scratch. It took all of five minutes. Yes, I did back up my old posts before killing the old installation, but I doubt I’ll ever find the time to do anything with them.

A lot has happened in the months since I quit posting to my blog, and I’ll try to update everyone in the next couple of posts. Stay tuned.
