And We’re In Business!

By David Walsh on October 27, 2007

The blog has been successfully moved to the new domain and theme. Took longer than I wanted, but doesn't everything?

A few of the roadblocks I ran into include:

MooTools & Syntax Highlighter didn't cooperate as I hoped. The issue was with Syntax Highlighter, but I've iron out this issue.
Problems upgrading WordPress from 2.2 to 2.3. I've stayed with 2.2 for now.
WordPress' list-driven navigation. A lot of WordPress revolves around lists, which in most cases is good, but why use UL/OL/LI if you can simply use "display:block;" CSS?

In any event, the new blog is up and I'd love to hear your thoughts on the design and how I can improve the website!
