Then I realized that your website tracks your work from 1991 on, which makes any role we had together something like a “prequel.” Or a “forward.” Or a lame “prologue.” Anyway, you know what I mean. You still are one of the most clever writers I know, and when I read your work it sounds like you speaking to me, like the Matt I know. Keep up the good work! – Harv

That reminds me: I should set up a list of links to sites like yours too. It’s on the “To Do” list!

Hi Jeff: I like Movable Type just fine. It’s a bit more of a learning curve than Blogger, but it forced me to finally crack CSS a bit. I recommend it.

This entire site is actually set up in Movable Type, including the static pages. That means I can make changes to them through my web browser and people can search those pages via the search function on the front page. I like the built-in “Notifications by E-mail” function too, as I can use it as a broadcast-only mailing list when I post important bits to the site.

I’ve been thinking about side-grading jefftidball.com from the current SSI’ed Blogger Frankenstein that it is, but I can’t decide between the various software packages I’ve been reading about.

I so need another website to keep up with, too. 🙂 Glad to see you’ve got it up and running, and I look forward to checking back regularly.

Just reading about your current projects made me feel tired. Then I got to the FAQ where you talk about writing a thousand words an hour, and I felt even more tired. (A thousand words is a good day’s work for me.) At the bottom of the FAQ I learned that you have five kids — and then I felt exhausted!

Clearly I’ll have to build up my stores of energy just to visit your site each Wednesday.
