once apon a blog

once apon a time i had a great blog going - lotsa hits, high google ranking, and a lot of subscribers..

and then my host said no more! i was pulling down the whole server.

so, bye bye drupal - i installed a few things, didn't like them

i wrote my own blogging software (heavily ajaxed of course).

then i tried just using planet to pull in feeds from other places...

then eventaully, i forked out, bought a cheap vserver in north america somewhere, installed drupal, *tried* to import my old database (but failed) and the result is coffee.geek.nz.

things still missing that i need to restore.
Audioscrobbler/last.fm scripts
Emusic recommendation scripts
Flickr set summary, day summary, and other flickr stuff.
Drupal themes from oswd

i'll get to them soon - next rainy weekend - - just hold in there.
