The Blogger Who Cried Wolf

Well, I’m really, really doing it — the site is now being cleaned up significantly.  As always, I’m playing around with the graphics, this time on the right side.  Ideally, the graphics’ fonts will match the style, and I’ll actually have illustrations for each area.

To clear up everything — this is final resolution — I’ve made The Beta Stage is alive and well.  It’s been absorbed into this domain, and the old “thebetastage.com” will now redirect here for the time being.  All old links will work perfectly, though, and will remain in play.  I’ll be importing all of the old posts onto the new domain, too, so that old posts will show up on this site’s archives, too.  Eventually, TheBetaStage.com may show new posts, too — I have to see how confusing all of this is before I make the change.

I also want to separate out the political from The Beta Stage.  That’s now its own self-contained blog, called “Stage Left.”  This will be where all of my “politics and new media” posts will go.  I think there’s an interest for some people in purely social media, and they might be turned off by the politics, so I’m going to cater to both tastes.  If there is any cross-posting, it will be done very sparingly, so don’t worry too much about repeat posts with this solution.

I’m also keeping up with the personal posts.

RSS feeds to come soon.  By the way, if you’re subscribed to the old Beta Stage RSS feed, don’t worry, you don’t need to change a thing.  II’ve already taken care of the changes and your feed will stay with “The Beta Stage.”
