This morning I transferred a few more archived entries over here. It's a simple enough process that won't take me too long. For recent entries I went a little overboard with the weblinks, mostly to Boardgamegeek. I may not bother to continue that (and almost certainly won't bother linking all of my old archives).
One thing that's really slick about this new weblog is that I can utilize a nice, readable format for the web that is automatically stripped down to something readable on PDAs via AvantGo. Best of both worlds! I'm still tweaking the formatting a little.
Tonight is game night! Whew, it's been four weeks since my last regular Santa Clarita Boardgamer session. That trip to the Gathering blew a big hole in my local gaming schedule, as I cashed in all those marital brownie points and spent more time with the family. I'm definitely ready to see my friends tonight. New England has been our Game of the Month, and I haven't even played it with them!
When you start figuring out what Movable Type can do, you'll be doing lots of tweaking... The program is quite flexible.
Few recommendations: currently the permanent links to the entries reside in the posting time. That's pretty unintuitive. The standard "Permalink" text is against usability rules (link should be named after the document it points to), so I put the link in the entry title. That makes sense, I suppose.
I also suggest you add the whole entry to the RSS files - just excerpts is a bit boring I think (at least providing the whole entries would make my life easier). If you want to do that, I can tell you how to do it...
But, what's more important, have fun...
