Or, rather, the old blog in a new place. I hope you like the new look; I think it’s now pretty much set up as I want it, but if you spot any glitches, let me know. I managed to import all the old posts, which was a minor victory (I’ll spare you the techy [...]

possible hiatus
10 August 2005 – 11:46 am
Frustrated by the frequent downtime at Freezope, I’m shifting my site, starting with this blog, to a new location. This involves moving from Squishdot, a Zope-based piece of blogging software, to WordPress (php/MySQL based). Since I’ve never used php this is a potentially fraught process that is likely to take up most of my attention [...]
book links
4 August 2005 – 9:20 am
At the bottom of the left-hand column are books I recommend. They are set up as referral links to Amazon (UK). I’m not seriously expecting a useful revenue stream from this, it’s just a way to liven up the appearance of the site. The plan is to occasionally add a new title, and as books [...]

You’ll notice the place looks different now. I doubt whether this version will last too long – I changed it because I thought the previous look was a bit too tasteful, too pastel. But this one already feels too self-consciously wacky, and I only just did it.

a faltering start
14 October 2004 – 12:29 am
I haven’t got off to a very good start on the blogging thing, have I? It was a probably a mistake trying to start The Poetry Blog and stormy petrel at the same time. I actually set this blog up initally to play with Squishdot. I’d done a certain amount of redistributing and restyling on [...]
all about me
9 October 2004 – 9:41 pm
To be more accurate: not very much about me. I’m Harry Rutherford. I write poetry as a hobby – hence the blog and the wiki. I’m also a mod at PFFA. Other interests that might surface while I blog are food and birding. Or, they might not – who knows what I’ll feel the need [...]
