ismyblogworking.com doesn't really work

I got an item in my RSS feed the other day. It was for my old (hardly used, one careful owner) site www.pie.geek.nz. I have let it lapse since I never really used it, hence DNS broke.

It read:

Your blog is broken:
DNS failure.
Last change in status was Sun, 02 May 2010 11:28:00 +0000

Great, except it gave me this update on the 19th May. That means it took 17 days for the ismyblogworking.com service to tell me. Hardly a recommendation for you to use it.

For some reason I expect that if I sign up to a service which tells you if your blog is broken, it would notify you a little quicker than 17 days. All good fun.

Ready to Migrate old Blog Posts Over

A recent commit on Lollysite has enabled me to import old blog posts from my other sites. Yep, you heard right, I’m going to concentrate all my blogging prowess here.

This includes my old entries from:

I hope that once the migrations are done, and I redirect the traffic from those sites here, I’ll be more consistently posting. Also, I’m reaching the stage where I’m understanding AppEngine a little more and actually have less things to do for Lollysite now.

BTW, I’m now also writing my blog entries in Textile instead of my proprietary (but open source) wiki markup Phliky

It’s very nice. Finally, I find a wiki-type markup language I like.

Adventures with Zaapt

Many things have happened this week. Here's a quick run-down.

Following on from yesterday's article about Dynamic Method Generation I didn't get chance to play with it further tonight.

Instead, I had some outside interest (I can't talk about yet) regarding Zaapt and it's blog capabilities. I'd been putting it off, but I just about got it up and running. The example Zaapt sites now have a blog (plus feed).

In other news, I'm in the middle of a big custom content addition for KiwiWriters so hopefully I'll have that out of the way by next week sometime. It's amazing how you're not busy, then three things come along at once.

It's all happening.

I Am Back

After a month away, I'm back and ready to start posting again.

I have a few topics to write about in the next few days, so instead of getting them all out at once, I'll spread them out. Anyways,... my first one will probably be tomorrow since I'm very tired. I know, I'm a wuss.
