Ye olde blog has undergone a bit of a facelift. Fahim Farook's Blog software served me well for close to four years. Alas poor Fahim hasn't had time to keep the tool current with the times. WordPress has some pretty groovy plugins and whatnot, so there ought to be some fun experiments down the pike.
As always, thanks for reading.

It looks nice, if perhaps a bit familiar! [sneaky grin]
However it looks, it's the content that counts.
Good luck categorizing 1996 posts.

I made sure that all of the post IDs stayed the same - a difficult task to begin with. It was even harder, though, because there's a bug in WordPress 2.0's RSS importer that stalls at around 4 posts or so. I imported ~2100 posts in increments of 4, manually resetting the autoincrement counter as needed.

And wow — you imported 2100 hundred posts! That puts me to shame for not importing more of my old posts last year when I migrated from Fahim's software…
It looks good, btw.
