After hours of tedious work moving blogs over from the old platform and customizing the look and feel, here’s the new blog. Hope you enjoy it. The search function works way better than the last one as well, so check it out!
For those of you who connected via the RSS feed on the old site, you will need to use the new one instead, located here: http://feeds.feedburner.com/DavidWesterfield?format=xml
If you linked to my site from another page, the article still exists in the archive here, but you will need to search for it and then update the link with the new permalink URL.

How very Web 2.0ish. I’m guessing it’s also beta? 🙂
Nah, it’s a clean design, and seems to load faster too… then again, that could have been because of some tweaks I made to Firefox on my end. (http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-717117-highlight-firefox.html if you’re interested). Does it appear to put a higher load on your end?

Haha 😉 I keel you. Ope nope, juss keeding.
I haven’t done monitoring on the web servers yet to tell if it’s straining it much at this point. It does seem to be more efficient though. I guess we’ll see. Having Gzip, image/static text caching turned on at the reverse proxy level really helps on performance though.
