All tantrum, all the time
You found me! My one-year blogiversary is fast-approaching, and I thought it was time for a "me" domain. I've grown quite attached to blogblogbaby.com, but this address is one born of my own brain. I've been sitting on it for a few weeks now trying to figure out what to do with it -- and I finally decided to just blog it.

I've been sharing a copy of Movable Type with Christine forever. Not because I had to, but because she was gracious enough to provide shelter in a time of need following an old server meltdown. But my blog has really grown since then, and I think it's time to quit moochin' off her webspace and bandwidth. It also gives me a really good excuse to give the Trackback feature a whirl.

So here I am! Please change your bookmarks and Blogrolls. Things will be rocky for the next few days with the blog links, skins and search feature 'til I get all of the proper paths and links changed, so please be patient. And last but certainly not least, welcome! Beer's in the fridge over to the right, and you can fight Todd for the remote.

Update: Your skin will not carry over from blogblogbaby.com. I'm at a new domain on a new account. You will have to go to the skins page and reset them all over again. Thanks!



Hey boy take a look at me...let me dirty up your mind...



Excellent! Congrats on the new domain! ;)

Hey Robyn! Site looks great . . . isn't fun getting your own domain name?? I am hoping to do something with gotwheels.net soon. Have fun!

I love the domain and all that ... but .. but ... you ARE blogblogbaby. You could have moved it.

Wow. I feel like the little sister whose big sister just left for college and I have the room all to myself. It's quiet in here. (With a TON of space to spare too. Guess I need to open it up to new roomies...) Can I still be your wife, even though you're living with your husband now? ;)

Congrats. I just L-U-R-V-E the name!

Beavis, I think this is the coolest thing I have ever seen.

Congrats on your new 'home'. Love the name.

What an utterly fabulous domain name. Kick ass.

I'm a long time reader and first time poster.

Great new name. Congrats.

:hint hint: check your links. check your menu links however. Going to old site. And the cookies for skins won't work.

Again great site.

Hey, thanks for posting for the first time! I only have 10 fingers and one keyboard (that sounds a lot more dirty than it should)... I'm going as fast as I can -- it's why this entry says "please be patient" and lists all the things you've named. ;-)

Anyone else having troubles with cookies taking? We've tested on Windows (IE 5.5 and Netscape 4.7) and Mac (IE 5.2.1 and Opera 5) and the right cookie accepts when the browser is closed completely and relaunched.

The only thing I can think of is that you're expecting your skin to carry over from blogblogababy.com and it won't -- you will have to go to the skins page and reset it all over again. Is that what you meant, Matt?

Anyone else having trouble getting the cookie to take when your reset your skin?

Congrats on your move Robyn. Hmm. I've been thinking about changing over my domain name as well. You been reading my mind? ;p

btw, that trackback thing...Interesting. :)

Was the Vanilla Ice vibe from the old URL harshing your mellow?

I like the new URL. (grin)

I like it! My Blogrolling list is already updated, and now I just have to change my own bookmarks... though I like the redirect page so much... I may take a few days to get to that ;-)

All cookies seem to be working for me, by the way.

Gotcha moved! Love the name... somehow it fits... *grins*

Thanks for getting the skins working! I got to have my WORD skin for blogging at work!

¤ ¤ credit: matt | 07.17.02 at 12:25 AM | link--this ¤ ¤

I wish I could think of catchy domain names.

Congratz on the move to your new domain. I'd give you a perdy plant as a domain name warming gift, but, well, it don't fit through CAT 5 too well.

Nice! Blogroll has been changed!

Love the Weezer skin...that's the one I'm using now!

Is that Ms Minogue on your redirect page on the old URL or someone else?

¤ ¤ credit: Joanne | 07.17.02 at 12:58 AM | link--this ¤ ¤

It sure is. Don't care much for her, but looooove that pic! :-)

¤ ¤ credit: robyn | 07.17.02 at 01:07 AM | link--this ¤ ¤

Oh, I loooooove the new name. You've got a career in coming up with catchy domains, I'd say. ;)

¤ ¤ credit: Kelly | 07.17.02 at 01:56 AM | link--this ¤ ¤

Congrats! Love the new domain name!!

¤ ¤ credit: Eve | 07.17.02 at 02:01 AM | link--this ¤ ¤

Great news...although from a Sooner I might have hoped for an OU theme. ;) Congrats!

¤ ¤ credit: sandy | 07.17.02 at 09:37 AM | link--this ¤ ¤

You are the queen of domain names, my dear... after all... you did come up with mine. :)

¤ ¤ credit: Christi | 07.17.02 at 09:48 AM | link--this ¤ ¤

Liking the new place! The domain name is really cute. :)

¤ ¤ credit: Geri | 07.17.02 at 10:31 AM | link--this ¤ ¤

Love the new domain name!!
Best wishes in your new home!
