I have imported all 323 of my Gameshelf posts. But it works, it's free, I got the layout the way I want, and I don't have to worry about patching security holes. I'm using, which is, yes, part of the Google-monster. So, behold my brand-new blog page! It now lives at. Fixing it was a one-line patch (thanks Jmac) but the writing on the wall had clearly acquired tags. (That "323 posts" link above is supposed to let you browse all my Gameshelf posts, but it doesn't really.)Ī few weeks ago, a routine Perl update broke the blog software completely. The Perl core of The Gameshelf (a Movable Type fork) rusted until it barely functioned. Jmac moved his regular writing to a personal blog site. Over nine years I wrote 323 Gameshelf posts, documenting games I played, IF events I attended, and the entire development cycle of Hadean Lands.īut: everything shifts over time, and that includes the centers of gravity of web sites. But I got a couple of posts written each month - which adds up. Indeed, I never hit a daily or even weekly rhythm. I chose to participate because, well, I wasn't sure I'd be writing enough to sustain a blog on my own. The Gameshelf was a group blog run by my friend Jmac. I'd been on the web since 1993 (really!) but 2008 was my first venture into blogging - which I guess I'd define as a semiregular series of nonfiction essays with an RSS feed. Nine years ago I made my blogging debut with a post titled Games that don't exist.
