Moved from Movable Type to WordPress

Back when I moved from the custom Python CGI system for funny links to a Movable Type weblog, I listed three reasons for the change. The third reason was “my geeky need to fart around with needlessly complicated web stuff.”

In that spirit, I have switched to a new system, WordPress, which seems to be the in thing these days. So far I like it better - the editing interface seems better designed, and the Apache mod_rewrite rules that it provides gives me shorter URLs. See? Geeky. I even added 301 redirects to point the old URLs to the newer, shorter ones. If you find broken links, let me know and I’ll patch them up.
