I decided to take it upon myself to finally upload WordPress 2.7.1 (or whatever it is right now) onto my own space. It’s only changed just a little; it’s technically at http://www.jennifermnewell.com/blog instead of http://blog.jennifermnewell.com/, although I have it redirecting both from http://jennyjenjen.wordpress.com/ (my pre-domain-ownership address) and http://blog.jennifermnewell.com/ to the new address. So basically, everything’s up and running.

I couldn’t figure out how to export/import my blogroll, and probably just should’ve used de.li.cious, but I think I’ll do that another day. It wasn’t too difficult to do the blogroll by hand as an excuse to waste time and watch television instead (HD at the parents’ house is awesome!).

I also spent a good while messing around with PHP and making myself a new homepage. I probably didn’t need to do all of that when I did it, but I’m pretty happy with the results. I just wanted something simple, and I was also hell-bent on not having to use other services to put a feed up of my posts on my website. Why not just make my blog the homepage? I dunno, I kinda wanted some space to show the world the project I’ve been working on, and I didn’t want some of my little CSS tricks to go to waste. Besides, if I ever got motivated enough to make something decent in Flash, I could also put it there.
