WordPress

If you are reading this you are seeing the new incarnation of rachelandrew.co.uk which is now running on WordPress. I have to say how impressed I am with the simplicity of the WordPress install and the ease with which it imported all of the Movable Type posts and comments.

I’ve also redesigned, with a colour scheme to match my hair. I still have some stuff I want to do with this design however I wanted to get away from the spam attracting machine that is Movable Type.

I just discovered your site a day before the new design was launched. When the design was updated the next day I thought “Wow, she updates her page design every day?! That’s impressive”. Of course I now realise you don’t but it’s still an impressive site. I’m enjoying your php/MySQL tutorials in Practical WebDesigner magazine which lead me here. Thanks for the fresh design. I really like it.

You may want to handcode a one-item RSS files that tells people subscribed to your old feed that its moved. I only found out because I noticed bloglines had a [!] next to your feed.
