Redesign

Readers of this site following via a feed reader may not have noticed that the site has been redesigned. The new design is nothing innovative, but it fixes a heap of problems with the previous design that I never liked but didn't have time to fix. I'm still not entirely happy with it, but it's a step forward.

One note for feed readers: You're probably subscribed to a file called "index.rdf", a proper RDF file that was an alternative to RSS in an early set of default templates that came with Movable Type. With this redesign, I built the site up from scratch using the latest version of Movable Type, which does not include an RDF template. As a temporary measure, I've set up "index.rdf" to serve the RSS feed for the site (now called "rss.xml"). This is totally wrong, morally speaking, but the few feed readers I tried it with didn't seem to have a problem re-discovering the actual file format. If there's demand for a proper RDF feed, I'll look into restoring the RDF template. I'm sure it's around here somewhere.
