I activated FeedBurner for my feed. It's really Sweet with all of the cool features they have! I added lots of tweaks to my feed including the most important one MyBrand. It makes it possible to keep your url as the source of your feed while it still being a feedburner feed. Your readers will never know the difference! And since I have blog using Subtext that support FeedBurner simply through configuration it was real easy to set it up. The one thing that had me puzzled for a while was that access to the MyBrand feature was not...

Very cool day today since I've gone live with my new blog. Surf in at blog.noop.se and have a look at it! For those who are on the old feed still (might be seeing a message above stating in bold something about this blog being moved) please update your feeds to point here: blog.noop.se/rss.aspx As you might have read or are about to... I wrote a little something to keep my old feed URL intact (Keeping the old feed intact when moving your blog) when I switched from dasBlog to Subtext. I totally recommend you move...

This became a problem when importing. It could be that my version of dasBlog didn't contain post names in the source files. Doesn't matter. Now I'm exported!

I am determined (finally) to move to another blog engine. DasBlog is fine but development on that code base is slow and some features that I want are just not there. Also the code base could be in better shape since I want to go in and hack some myself. Now I've found a blog engine worth the name; Subtext  ...
