Bloglift

Because this little blog is now 5 years old, I decided to give it a bit of a facelift.

This is what happens when you grow up in the public eye, after all. At first you're fresh and cute, then gradually your age starts to show, with unfavourable comparisons to the younger models becoming embarrassingly frequent.

It starts with innocent little questions like "Mon, why don't you have automatic backlinks for each post?"

Cue the old-geezer reply: "Heh? What's that? Some newfangled invention for bloggery? In my time, young whippersnapper, we didn't have automated backlinks, oh no, we had to scour the internet in our spare time looking for references to ourselves, then painstakingly hand-sew them into the blog posts, writing out lines of HTML in longhand..."

"HTML?" asks the youngster. "What's that? We just use templates, old man. We have better things to write than stupid HTML code!"

And so it has come to pass that the template gets updated, and I treat myself to a silicone bum-injection.
