Migration update (Blogger to MT again)

Christian Crumlish

Just migrated a set of online journal entries made with Blogger in 2000 into my X-POLLEN weblog. This leaves a gap from late 2000 until January of 2002. What was I doing inbetween? Riding a dotcom all the way down, working on a novel I still haven't finished, writing in a lot of paper journals. Maybe the occasional hiatus is normal.

Speaking of real paper journals, I passed one around tonight (last night now) at the Pie project/bloggers dinner at Hunan on Sansome in S.F., at Marc Canter's behest. I'll post links to the participants after I've slept. Plus now I have everyone's email address, MUAHAHAHA.
