New website

I finally gave in and started hosting my blog here at Blogger, because they won't let me use some of the advanced features as long as I'm using my own hosting space. Which is annoying, but whatever.

The main point of the move is the new and (mostly) awesome version of Teh Links over there. They're pulling from RSS feeds for the different sites to show when they were last updated, with the most recent ones at the top.

I say "(mostly)" because several sites don't have official feeds, like Schlock Mercenary and the others in Teh Static Links, or there are unofficial or third-party ones which tend to be rather lower in quality. For example, the Sinfest feed is an unofficial one which has the correct update times but gives a bad link.

Well, I approve of the change myself. Mostly 'cause now you have an RSS feed I can yoink.

(Also, hi.)

Ah, yes, one further thing to add. If I were to announce a desire to rekindle contact with you, you would say...?

Um, mostly I would put off replying to your email because it's important and I would want to pay genuine attention to it. And then I would leave work and not check my email at home and not get around to it.

"This is important! Too important to do now! I'll do it later!" is a pitfall I'm pretty familiar with by now. Timing the jump is the tricky part.

Aha! Well, that reassures me that I haven't got the wrong email address or anything.

I'll sit quietly and stop harassing you now.
