A change…

I’ve moved my blog from Mambo to Wordpress. Mambo is a great CMS but as a blogging tool, its not quite so mature. I wanted something simple and web standards friendly and wordpress seems to be it. The casualties in this move are the comments and the uk tv guide. I’m no longer publishing the component as its a Mambo component. but head on over to SynTV for the listings. Fortunately I haven’t blogged too much over and I was able to transfer over by good old cut n paste.

Well, there you go… expect some weird stuff as I play around and hopefully I’ll post new content soon…

    I’m thinking of switching from MT to WP. How are you handling comment spam?

    I use WPBlackList from http://sm.farook.org/index.php?p=149 which works along the same lines as the MTBlacklist plugin. There’s a list of plugins at http://wp-plugins.net/. I get a email when theres a spam being blocked so I’m gonna keep my eye on and see how effective it is..

    I did it manually as there wasn’t too many posts. Wordpress do have importers available, I’m sure..
