I've been reinventing a lot of wheels recently, and I finally got around to reinventing the blog software wheel once again. There's good reason for this: I didn't like the way that Bryar handled tags (it didn't); I wanted to move away from flat-files into SQL so that I could edit things more easily, particularly sweeping up spam comments, which Bryar was terrible at; and I wanted to continue being able to syndicate XML feeds as on the right hand side. And, as usual, I don't trust other people's software.
The new software, Glob, is, well, a couple of hours old. I still need to tweak a few things about it - tag searching is still not there, for instance - and there may be some brokenness as a result of the changes, but this is all part of the fun. When it's all done, you'll have the ability to subscribe to particular tag streams - so you can only read technical posts, or only theological ones, or whatever. But for now all the old URLs are (should be) supported.
I took the opportunity to give the site a bit of a redesign as well.
