Blog on the move

My web folks just put me on notice: Capital Beat is moving. Well, the URL isn't, so don’t change your bookmarks.

But the paper is scrapping the Movable Type blogging platform that the we’ve used since firing up the Inside Scoop blog in 2004.

For those wondering, we're moving to a Drupal-based platform, which is the same system that runs our main web page.

The move is supposed to happen Thursday morning and I have been told "There may be times when it is temporarily unavailable, and it may take some of the morning for me to go through and clean up your blogrolls, bio, etc."

So pardon our dust on Thursday as we get things moved over to the new system. Once the move is done, you'll see some changes to the page's format, although nothing overly dramatic. And I think you'll find the commenting function works a bit better.

Seeing's as the homepage is now much better and loads faster, I vote "yay" on the move and shall put up with the transition without complaint (no guarantees on "no-snark"). Would love to see your analytics, Mark, especially the geo info. Is that of that share-able?
