Talk of the Point comes back
Talk of the Point returns today after a two-month silence. Part of that was spent wrestling with new software. You see it reflected in the new search and notification functions. I hope you like it.
I had been using Radio Userland for content management. It worked well for basic posting. But there was no search, no notification, and none of the clever plug-ins I may yet incorporate here.
Then Karen Schneider kicked off her My Point with a competing software package, Movable Type--and she did so easily.
I decided to switch, but unfortunately I added a fatal complication: I tried to keep the old look and feel. Just replace a few Radio tags with Movable Type tags, right? Not! I finally gave up on the conversion and adapted one of Movable Type's off-the-shelf templates.
