It's here! The new diary is up. Right now it's very plain vanilla; I've managed to
change the colors but not much else. My problem is as usual that I can figure out
the coding (eventually) but my graphic design skills are minimal. Some of this
stuff, like the archiving and the comments, appears to work well without any
commenting, but right now there are no links to email me or to other sites I read
or anything else. (Later note: figured out how to dolinks.) Still, it's there. If
you are some kind of internet anthopologist with an interest in how these things
evolve, you can see it

The separate photo
album isn't started yet, though I have figured out how to include images in the
diary itself.
There will be a notify list; this is one of the things
MovableType kindlly handles for me. If you'd like to join it before I figure out
how links work, email me or leave a comment there or in the guestbook here.
It's a bit pastel at the moment and I'm not really in a pastel mood.
On the other hand it's a color I use a lot, including on the walls in a couple
rooms here. It makes me think of skies and water. Anyway, suggestions are welcome.
I haven't yet decided whether to move all updates over there now or wait until
it's more customized, but I will certainly announce that here.
Meanwhile, it's pretty much what MT starts ou off with, except that it's blue.
This means it's serviceable but looks very much like everybody else's MT blog. I
will have to Do Something about that!
