Small print and low contrast is like having a pebble in your shoe - bearable for a while but ultimately crippling.

I'll be interested to hear how wordpress and IIS get along. One other thing, I think the bullseye icon that your template is showing in your "Blogs I read" is the closest thing to a standard for OPML so you might want to change that.

It's serving several other sites while the Wordpress site appears to be hanging. Even restarted the server doesn't seem to do anything to help the Wordpress hang. It could even be the re-writer, which I hadn't thought of before. There is an entry for every post in the old blog. Some processing there could be an issue. I'll keep poking. Thanks for checking it out. Aron,

We have had some problems with the WordPress installation we are using for our weblog; trying to publish really long posts seems to cause errors. These errors don't appear in our server logs, either. Luckily, it seems like Apache never dies and is able to respond to subsequent requests without problem. I responded to your rawdog questions directly via email; I'm reposting here in case others are curious. Rawdog does not update its list of feeds automatically when a permanent redirect is encountered. I could change the configuration and allow automatic updates (this is a newer feature), but I still like manually reviewing redirects. I checked my rawdog config; I am reading through feedburner. This means that I am not even seeing a redirect. Aron Will,

The body font is sorta large. I like it that way - it makes me feel a little less . . . old. Does Rawdog always make you update it for permanent redirects, or is this unusual? Sorry for the trouble posting, I noticed the server stalling this morning. There are no errors being thrown and no CPU being used. I really don't know what's going on. It's gonna be hard to debug. It could be PHP on IIS, a MySQL issue, one of the plugins I've added to Wordpress or any of the manual changes I've made to Worpress or the theme I'm using. I'm going to have to isolate it somehow. Thanks again. Hey Aron,
