official state media for a secessionist republic of one

Immigrant song

Here's a pretty old post from the blog archives of Geekery Today; it was written about 17 years ago, in 2007, on the World Wide Web.

For a lot of reasons, I have wanted to move Rad Geek People’s Daily from MovableType to WordPress for quite a long time. For a lot of other reasons, I have sat around and done nothing about it for quite a long time. But the day is here at last, and I’ve put quite a lot of effort into moving from one to the other. The migration is not, in itself, very hard or time-consuming; but one thing that I wanted to do, which has been time-consuming, is to make very sure that more or less nothing breaks in the transition (URIs, syndication feeds, etc.). So I hope you’ll pardon my dust for a few days while I sort everything out, but I hope that most of the major work is already done. If you notice anything that was working as of yesterday and is working as of today, please give me a holler, so that I can track it down and fix it.

We now return you to your regularly-scheduled extended quotations and political diatribes.

    Hi. I’m using Opera 9. Your posts, when viewed using permalinks, are italicised in their entirety.

    From the main page everything looks fine.

    heather,

    In order: rock on; of course; and if you’re interested, I’d be glad to work out an arrangement for hosting, or I know some other folks who could do it. Drop me a line via e-mail if you’re still looking.

    Sam,

    Thanks; the problem was a stupid HTML nesting error that I didn’t notice because Firefox handles the undefined behavior differently from Opera. It should now be fixed.
