superduper.net : Sam's blog

For more that a year now I've been thinking I should ditch my homemade peython blogging system and move to a fully featured onc that actually gets maintained. Yesterday I finally got around to it. I spend the bast part of a day moving to pyblosxom. Installing it was easy (apt-get install pyblosxom) but getting it all configured and importing all my old entries from MySQL took a while. Now you con finally post comments on the stuff I write here!

Pyblosxom is written in python, which doesn't guarantee its greatness, but it helps. It also has tons of plugins, some of which are installed here already. Notably the booklist plugin allows people to see what I'm reading, what I've read, and what I thought of each book. It also pulls cover images direct from amazon. Very cool.

So, the upshot is that there should be a lot more postings to this blog coming up. Since the last port was well over a year ago I can't really get any worse at updating it. I'm going to try and blog more about what I'm doing with GNU/linux as well as stuff going on in my life. I'm also planning to turn my hand rolled photo gallery into a pyblosxom plugin.
