Should have seen this coming

Scheming to scheme

You did what now

So... the entire point behind my pile of m4 scripts and Makefiles was to make it easier to write blog posts. But to maintain the different indexes and RSS (why do I have an RSS feed?), it took enough effort that I just wasn't doing it. I don't expect to update daily. I do expect to find something worth writing about at least monthly... Currently, we're looking at a post every 3 months. Not great, not terrible. So, quick port to Haunt. Is it perfect? No. Should you use it? If you have to ask, probably not. This isn't a brag or a dig; you'll know if this is what you've been looking for.

Haunt is very hackable, which is really nice. It lets me turn comfy text documents into... well, this. This site is structured oddly: each project is basically a mini blog. I'm able to create stylistic macros that make party tricks stupid easy to pull off. I think I was able to completely recreate exactly what I had before, and nobody would notice. Except I brought it up.

If I migrate again. I promise I won't talk about it. Nobody likes blog posts about blogging technology. It is just strange filler for not having anything to talk about.
