I’ve switched my blogging tool from Blogger Pro to Movable Type, based on feedback (and voting with their feet) from bloggers I respect. It’s a much more versatile, feature-rich offering, although it takes some Unix expertise (or $20 to the creators) to get up and running. I’m very happy with it.
I’m also moving my Yahoo blog discussion group to use bloget instead. Subscribers will see an announcement message from bloget, which they can ignore. Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns about the change.
Finally, please note that the best feature of MT is comments, so I’d like to hear what you think about some of these posts.
As always, please take a look at http://www.dankohn.com/blog/.

I got the email from bloglet.com that I had “subscribed to the site Dan Kohn’s Blog (http://www.dankohn.com/blog/) through Bloglet.” (Of course I had done no such thing, but bloglet didn’t know that I guess.) When I visited http://www.bloglet.com/ with the supplied credentials to see what this was about, I was told that I am subscribed to nothing, and was invited to enter the URL of the RSS feed of some blog of interest. I don’t know Dan’s blog’s RSS address. What was the point of this whole exercise again?

Guess I’m just lucky. I didn’t have any of the rather circular problems Keith Dawson describes; I simply received a nice note from Dan detailing the cancellation of two dankohn private listservs (on which I was indeed a ’scriber) and the switch to Movable Type*, and inviting me to visit the blog and sign up, which I did.
*Good move; I’m impressed.
