The migration appears to have gone smoothly. If you use blogger, specifically the “New” blogger which should still be in Beta testing, and have found they’ve conveniently made it next-to-impossible to transfer your content, help has arrived. Use this WordPress plugin before it’s too late.
I have pulled over all of my old posts, but haven’t really verified any of them. I am anticipating minor problems, like the img src tags not working. Oh well.
New content is in the works.
Hello All:
It is likely that I will no longer be blogging here, or at the old http://blamp.com/blog, either. I have registered a handful of domains, and I’m currently figuring out what to do with them, although it will involve WordPress.
I have not decided whether I will be migrating all or any of my previous posts to the new domain – it is not cumbersome to move them all, but I don’t think I need them all. It may be more trouble than it’s worth to move some, so I may migrate none, etc.
Blogging has resumed at my new domain – please update your links, bookmarks, aggregators, etc.
The new URL is: http://nothirdsolution.com
Ever since Blogger transitioned from Beta – by which I mean – forced its users to change from “old” blogger to new blogger, I’ve been having problems publishing. Sometimes my posts publish to an atom or rss feed, but they do not publish to the index or to my domain – which explains the error page, which is a picture of my roommate showing you his ass. Sorry.
Anyways, what was happening was basically an FTP timeout. So I checked my FTP settings – as if I changed them – and created a new account. Updated the blogger publish settings, and received a new error message! I am now unable to authenticate myself on a domain that I own. I fiddled with a handful of redirect options, and unfortunately, for the time being, I’m stuck with blogger, because that’s the only place I’m able to publish.
Right now, I have the http://blamp.com/blog set to redirect to http://doinkicarus.blogspot.com
This is a temporary fix as I migrate to another location. The easy WordPress migration didn’t work – it was not accepting my login – a problem I’m also attributing to Blogger’s transition to the “new” app which should still be in Beta. Perusing the status.blogger.com and various forums, people have been having the same problem I’m having since November, and it doesn’t seem to be resolved.
