Moved this over to wordpress 2.2 from blogger. Easy enough to to do except for two things.

 1) “We were not able to gain access to your account. Try starting over.” after authorizing blogger, required an update to blogger.php locally for 2.2. Note I ‘switched’ from ftp to blogspot hosting in the process of debugging this too, which was seamless and immediate.

2) The default way that wordpress allows multiple sites on debian (which is much nicer than that of gentoo btw) uses the hostname to determine which site you’re connecting to, so I moved the blog to http://blog.loftninjas.org from http://loftninjas.org/blog.

flame) And the text window is resizable, unlike pidgin.

Why the switch? I was hosting this on my server using blogger’s “SFTP” interface and about 50% of the time I used it I’d get a “Your publish is taking longer than expected. To continue waiting for it to finish, click here.” error when trying to publish.
