Hello world!
Howdy! I’m in the process of moving my blog from blogspot to this domain. As long as you see a ToDo List here, I’m not yet ready. Ok, there’s no such thing as a blog that’s “ready”. Hence the ToDo list is here to stay. Probably forever. More on the bugs & flaws page.
- Unordered & unprioritized ToDo List
- OK: dofollow plugin
- OK: feedburner
- OK: navigation in sidebar
- OK: links + OK:blogroll
- OK: remove “be the first …” on pages w/o comments
- OK: Twitter and other gadgets
- OK: configure titles (<title><?php wp_title(”",true); ?></title> (actually that’s more code coz wp_title(”",true) delivers nil for the home page)) and meta tags
- tag old blogger posts
- OK: 301 sebastian-x.com
- OK: post background color too dark (blockquotes) and other CSS hacks
- OK: XML sitemap
- credits on links page
- enhance site search when Google has indexed everything
- links list blogspot commenters
- OK: friendlier 404 page which actually sends a 404
- contact page
- edit blogspot links in imported posts and comments (when you get pings because I’ve edited an old post of mine, I’m sorry.)
- OK: edit categories to enable nice categorized links lists feeding old posts with link juice
- OK: Feed buttons
- OK: Share/bookmark links
- OK: change author links
- OK: linking from blogspot posts to new URLs
- OK: sitemaps/categories page with feed links/list of articles
- fix the disabled button + text area after AJAXed comment submissions
- advertising? Ynot.
- OK: think about testing vs. launching early (Hi Marissa!)
- OK: bait crawlers (Ms. Googlebot grabbed her milk & cookies a day after I’ve registered the domain, but is confused because I’ve changed the IP address a few days later)
- OK: ask friends for href changes
- wait for something unspecified
- OK: push the red button, publish the moved-draft at blogger, redirect the blogger feeds to feedburner, and turn this thingy to public
- FINALLY: redirect the blogspot url
I’ll write a post on a few technical aspects of the move in a few days.

Hi, this is your new outlet.
[Thanks for the headaches. Your default comment handling cries for a bold nofollow. Sebastian]
Why does your blog look that ugly?
[A: get a browser. Sebastian]
That’s sooooo unfair!
Heh.
