Welcome!

If you can read this, you don’t need costly corrective laser eye surgery. It also means that you’ve made it to the new Wordpress-edition of The Glory of Carniola. (Now with 25% more glory-based extract!) Please make sure your links and browsers point to: www.carniola.org from henceforth on!

If you’re reading via feed, you’ll need to susbcribe to one of the following new ones:

www.carniola.org/feed/
www.carniola.org/feed/atom/

I’m indebted, again, to Alienmelon for their help, especially Daniel. I’ve already promised them my soul, so I’m not sure what’s left to give. I’m sure I’ll think of something. Or that they’ll take something from me, by force.

Anyway, I’m an old mangy dog and these are all new tricks. I know all the young whippersnappers here use Wordpress, but it’s been decades since I’ve whippersnapped anything. The good news, though, is that commenting shouldn’t be such a hassle anymore. I was getting a lot of complaints about it — even I was getting occasionally blocked from commenting. I think those days are behind us, thankfully.

Thanks for coming by.

Michael

    Welcome back and welcome among the Wordpress users. But the most I welcome your decision on keeping only one URL for this blog! Multiple URL’s (well your blog could be read at this address and with the use of directory /theglory) was giving me grey hair because I was developing an application that would track down blogs in Slovenian “blogosphere” and order them by popularity which is determinated by how many bloggers has certain blog in his blogroll. Your blog is one of the most popular by counting at hand, but the computer has lost you many places since a lot of people use different URL than the one given to siblogs.com. Can you contact David to change your URL? Keep on blogging!

    And there I was, thinking for a split second that something went awry again with your blog. But my mind was put to rest once I saw that it all made sence :) Good work and congratulations both to you and your web divinities :)

    Yes, how in the world do I hyperlink everyone’s user names in the comments? So that it’s cookie and not cookie.

    I mean in the body of the post, not in the comment boxes. Apparently, you forgot to enter http:// when entering my URL ;)

    Just a short question… Is that rolling ad “Ads by google…” there on purpose or just a legacy from a transfer to wordpress?

    Don’t know why, but until today i never noticed it, and don’t remember if it was there also in the previous version…

    I love your peculiar sense of humour, Michael: I’ve seen there’s a sight of Bratislava on Carniola’s banner… I’m glad you’ve finally given up and come to terms that Slovenia in fact is the same country as Slovakia.

    Indeed it is! Bravo, luka!

    Luka,
    I’m afraid not all of us can afford to become as tolerant as Michael :-). I’ve accepted quite a few translation orders so far for which it eventually turned out that the customers had meant “the language of Slovakia” when they requested Slovenian… It does make one sad having to loose, like, 500 Euro because of that :-) :-(

    Slovenia is Slovakia, ignaorance is strength. Michael has won a victory over himself. He loves ………

    Hey, Michael. I can finally post comments on your blog. Yay!

    …. big bratec!!!

    I couldn’t resist the Bratislava banner, but I’ll probably take it down soon. I didn’t think anyone would notice so quickly. You guys are good.

    Bigwhale: I wasn’t sure if I should open registration or not. I guess it couldn’t hurt, right? I’m still fiddling with some plug-ins and stuff, so some things will change soon..

    Wordpress is so sweet, I want to crap my pants. Wordpress could kill MovableType with one swift move, but it won’t because that’s dishonerable.

    I love Wordpress with all my body, including my lizard.
