Same address as before, but the site is now primarily powered by WordPress.

After loading a test copy of my content on Sunday, and spending a few hours Monday and Tuesday evening making sure everything was the way I wanted it, I decided it was ready to go.

I still have some odd and ends to clean up, but nothing major.  If you notice anything unusual, please let me know.

RSS readers: I’ve put in redirects from the old Atom and RSS2 feeds to the new Wordpress feeds, so you should be able to keep reading the site without any changes.

I’m strongly considering migrating this site from MovableType to WordPress.

You can see a preview of my WordPress site here:

In that spirit, I really liked Hillary’s line (from her concession speech):

Although we weren’t able to shatter that hardest, highest glass ceiling this time, thanks to you it’s got about 18 million cracks in it.

Today marks the 6th anniversary of All the Pages (are my days).

It’s been fun and exciting to have been involved in something that started out as perhaps another techno-fad and which has now turned into a mainstream activity.

One type of blogging that I’ve enjoyed over the years is travel blogging. I’ve sort of gotten away from doing that as often as in the past, and am attempting to be more active this time out.

Here’s to many more years of All the Pages!
