Well, I shook up the blog a little bit, and as is typical, a few things broke. Most notably, my feedburner feed was screwed for a few hours, I’m hoping that it is back and functional again. Expect a few more rough bits as we head toward nirvana.

One of the reasons that I’m doing this is so that I can use the new widgetized plugins that WordPress 2.2 has begun to support. I’m going to be back porting some of my own modifications to my old themes into a widgetized format (notably, my plugin that gives baseball player birthdays) and have used them to create a few new items, such as an “on this date” entry that shows postings from the same date in previous years (thanks Steve!).

Yes, I know the layout is a bit ugly right now. I’ll be tweaking it as time goes forward.
