We made the switch to Powerblogs in record time, so it’s natural that we have to work out a few bugs on this new site. If you KNEW the problems we had in our move from Blogspot to Typepad in May, you would realize that this move has been a delicious piece of cake (thanks to Powerblogs’ Chris Lansdown whose name must be under the word “efficient” in the dictionary).
If you’re trying to leave comments, please keep trying. Let us know if you have problems. We just got an email about problems posting comments using Internet Explorer and confirmed it, so that’ll be worked out. We’re also going to be trying to import all old comments and trackbacks. Your patience and feedback is appreciated (but we’re quite happy about how quickly we were able to make the move). Comments seem to be working OK in Firefox.
