I have finished migration to new wordpress completely. This also includes the new blog on a new machine. Have assigned a subdomain to it. It is now blog.jatspeak.com instead of jatspeak.com/blog. The RSS feeds pointing to older blog need to be changed, i have tweaked it to serve contents from newer blog.

The new feature set includes :-

1. Ditching google analytics for wordpress’s own analytics engine.

2. Wordpress 2.6.0

3. Fork+K2

4. Zemanta recommendation engine, It helps the author to link more and more posts :) Aids content creation.

Following is now obsolete

1. Dreamhost.

2. Sphere blog recommendation engine.

3. Feedjit traffic widget (Still searching a better one. recommendations welcome)

4. smsgupshup widgets. (Kaddy won’t be happy)

5. I curbed the footer index as well. Am not happy about that. That will come back soon. Currently K2 does not have that.

I was facing problems in RSS migration. Apparently dreamhost was not allowing fetching files though php. So, i have put together an ugly hack. I pull the file from new machine on older one though wget, and then read it to output. This is bad! but it works! So, as always, first make it work, and then make it better.
