New Code Blog

less than 1 minute read

After 1 year of non-updates, I am moving my (broken) code blog onto Posterous. Why, you ask? Well, like every Ruby on Rails fanboy, I created my own blogging engine as soon as I knew how. I added custom flickr integration and custom last.fm integration. I added custom Amazon integration, all of which are broken now. Maybe its an easy fix, maybe not. I just don't have time to dig into it.

Posterous allows me to just email in updates with no setup and no time spent digging into ancient Rails code. Awesome.

UPDATE: 8/27/09 After importing my old blog, it seems that most of the old pics dont work. They were all pointing to a custom image caching scheme I had setup and they are all flickr images. I was a doofus and did not include the flickr id in the post anywhere so I am not about to go digging through flickr to fix the links. People will have to deal with broken images for all my old posts.

Was this page helpful for you? Buy me a slice of 🍕 to say thanks!
