In a transition that took far more work than it should have (yet far less than I expected it to), I have moved this site from the old location at personal.aparadine.com to simply aparadine.com. I had been using the top level domain to host a website for business dealings I set up using the Aparadine name (it made my bids look more competitive on programming contracts). As I have been making the transition to focusing on writing more and programming less, it now makes sense to list my personal site on the more convenient URL. The old site still forwards to here so it shouldn’t be a big issue unless you’ve linked to some of my content directly (in which case you’ll have to update the link or it will just forward to the main website). Which reminds me, I still have to update a few of my own pages which do exactly that. Silly me.

While I haven’t tested it yet, the Buzz settings indicate that this blog is now set to be re-posted automatically. I assume that means when I publish this message it will be similarly published in Buzz. I spent almost an hour looking around for solutions online and found, if anything, far too many solutions — for enabling a “Buzz This” style button on your WordPress blog, which is not what I wanted to do. Finally I asked a friend who suggested the answer: Set up your website on Google Webmaster Tools and the option to display it in Buzz just appears magically!
Now I’m going to post this and see if it works. Wish me luck
