New Post Link

I thought it was an annoying nucleus feature, but I guess I was wrong. Apparently, most blog software packages think the authors should have to hunt down the admin link, then hunt down the new-post link in order to make a new post.

Is this really what people want? WHY!!

I do not understand why they would not put a new post link in an easy to find location when you are logged in, and I do not understand why I should have to customize the code just to get such a link.

Blarg.

Moving right along

I have moved to a new host.

Total Choice Hosting has been my host since 2002 I think – it’s been a long time. But alas, I was won over by the wares of another — dreamhost.

I pay a little bit more, but I get tons more – and without the unpleasant aftertaste. Most importantly, I get shell access to my account, and I can host multiple domains.

I have three of them right now, I have to decide what to do with them. I was considering moving the blog type posting craziness to another domain, as shulerent was supposed to be a semi-serious starting point for my devious plans of world domination. It turned into a blog, and I don’t like blogs – I once despised the term ‘blog’.

But the world turns, seasons change, the inevitable inevitably occurs and… I have to accept the the phrase.

While having a discussion with my Mother, I learned that she was unaware of the vast history this blog contains – going all the way back to the beginning. Nucleus’ historical posts can only be viewed by month – so looking to the past can be a real pain.

I am in the process of converting to WordPress. It’s much nicer, and MUCH better supported. You can sample the system at http://www.deviatone.com.

Now I must watch Extreme Makeover: Home Edition and cry like a sissy girl.
