Testing the 43F redesign: Report bugs and comments here

I've flipped on this staged version of the site redesign so I can do some testing, iron out some bugs, and see how the load will be handled by WordPress.

There's lots of new stuff to talk about here, so feel free to ask questions, make comments and report bugs in this thread. I'll delete it when this officially goes live. If anything huge pops out (or I've missed something brutally obvious about security, for example) email 43bugs@undisclosedlocation.com or hit me on the AIM (aim:hotdogsladies).

Thanks for your patience while the dust settles.

I would also like quite...

I would also like quite inquire as to why the switch was made from Typepad to Wordpress? I myself just switched in the other direction so it would be helpful to know what reasoing went into the switch.

As for the re-design I would have to say I like the old one better. This one is cleaner for sure but it also feels rather barren. It has a very stark "black on white" feel. The two columns on the right with the links and ads feel too crammed.

I'll admit I mostly read the excellent content through NetNewsWire so I don't visit the web site very often. The only reason I did today was to see the new design and to find any reasons for the backend switch.

Cranking

Merlin used to crank. He’s not cranking any more.

This is an essay about family, priorities, and Shakey’s Pizza, and it’s probably the best thing he’s written. »

Scared Shitless

Merlin’s scared. You’re scared. Everybody is scared.

This is the video of Merlin’s keynote at Webstock 2011. The one where he cried. You should watch it. »
