A change is as good as a rest

To anyone who reads my blog regularly, welcome back. Yes – it looks rather different to normal. I’ve just installed Textpattern as my blogging tool du jour. The Movable Type blog is still there, but redirects to this one; I’ll be removing it just as it soon as I get the images etc moved across.

Why did I do this? Well, Movable Type’s licensing isn’t as great as it used to be (I would have benefited from multiple authors during our trip ), I fancied a new challenge, and I like the opportunity to have a blank canvas, design-wise, to make this site look like it’s been designed. The fact that the comments can auto-close after a period of time will also help in the fight against comment spam, which only has to be a good thing.
