Running is therapy

It means the DNS server has propagated in your area and you are viewing my site on my new host.

Sometime yesterday one of the guys I share the colo with, accidentally ran halt thinking he was on his local machine…Hence nathanpowell.org’s conspicuous absence over the last day or so. Rest easy, we are back.

Just kidding. I wanted to leave myself a note that I have been reorganizing some of the categories for the posts. It seems that the default ‘computers’ gets left on posts I didn’t mean it to, and I added running the other day for those posts, moving them out of the ‘blather’ section.

Somehow I made it to 253 posts with this one. I switched to wordpress in late 2005, from blosxom. Blosxom was pretty cool. It’s written in Perl and there is a decent community around it, but ultimately, wordpress had the things I was looking for and was easy to maintain. One thing I miss, and the reason I used blosxom for so long was that it read plain text files, so I could blog using vim rather than a web interface. Though for over a year now I have been using wordpress, and it’s not that bad using a textarea to blog. Bleh my mojo is gone.

I added the catagory of ‘tlc’. This way only people wanting to get all info related to TLC can get it easily. I also retrofitted all the previous posts with the tag.
