Yup! There’s a new blog engine in town boys!

I was getting tired of cleaning up comment spam (aren’t we all) and was looking around for a replacement writeback plugin for Blosoxom that had spam blocking. Well one thing led to another (as the internet is want to do) and I ended up reading a bunch of really nice things about WordPress.

So, I took the plunge and after a little futzing with the templates and css I’m back in business. The comments didn’t make it through (I think they might have fallen down a crevasse), but well, most of them were spam anyway :-). (Q: Should punctuation go before or after a smiley?) If you’d posted any, and were really attached to them, let me know. I’ll go all St. Bernard on them and haul them up.

So without further ado, I’d like to introduce the new reBeLog, now with added blogging power, searching, a calendar, and a fresh new minty taste!
