Reviving a zombie blog
July 17th, 2009
Turns out that if it’s been three years and two web host moves since you last logged into your Movable Type blog, things are likely to be a bit ahoo when you finally return.
I got back from Readercon earlier this week and wanted to write a post or two about it, but that simple task led to a Lovecraftian horror of database repair, software upgrades, and interface trouble. With a bit of data recovery help from Peter, the thing’s back online and now features type large enough for humans over the age of 20 to read.
The web-tech geeks among us are advised not to view source, as the markup’s a right old mess that I’m disinclined to fix, since I want to move the whole business to WordPress soon. Bug reports solicited at erin at this domain or in comments.
