This post is a test of some structural stuff.

(more…)

So I’ve been doing some mildly philosophical writing over at Congypsy, and decided to stop that since that’s not really what that site’s for. Will be moving those posts here, in no particular order.

UPDATE:successfully imported using the Wordpress import from rss functionality.

Upgraded hosting plan. Working on new layout in Wordpress. More to come.

So I was poking around the Internet Archive’s WayBackMachine today, and found out it does a terrible job of indexing blogs. Split posts (”read more”) are frequently dropped, as are comments. I think it just doesn’t do well with very dynamic content.

I’m afraid of what this might mean for the future. I’ve always assumed that we’ll have at least a crappy, slow, hard-to-access record of all of this information. It looks like it’s still possible for much of it to be lost to the sands of time.

I say we should have better internet archives. There should be a lot of wealthy people now who have an interest in making sure this stuff stays around forever. It could at least make for an interesting Google Labs project.
