sorinmustaca.com – Sorin Mustaca – personal blog. Security software, agile development, scrum, programming and more

I added a new widget on the right side of the blog which allows someone to follow my posts.

Starting as of today, I enabled the comments on my blog sorinmustaca.com . It is an experiment to see if someone really posts and to see also how much spam do I get.

Just have a look at the screenshot…
The problem is that they allow any registered user to post whatever he/she wants without any moderation.

This is also my post with a reply to the spammer’s post.

If you wondered why, the reason is very simple

I have a new born son ! His name is Robert and was born on 17th September 2007.

Here is a picture of him:

Finally I decided to remove all the old posts from the blog hosted Blogger and link them to this one.

However, I had a problem …

Until January 2006, I had all the files hosted by Blogger and from January, I moved them to this blog.

Then, in a futile attempt to retrieve the old posts as well and to clean them up from Blogger, I erased the Blog.

This blog: http://msorin.blogspot.com 

Remember, it is deleted …. really …
But, because  the files are still hosted by Blogger, the name is somehow … lost in the space.

So, I can not:

- delete the blog (it is already deleted)

- create a blog with the same name

- modify it in any way
- post it in

I wrote to Blogger, and this is what they said:

Notes:

• If your blog is a free blogspot blog, its files will be deleted and will no longer appear online.
• If your blog is either on your own server, or on Blog*Spot Plus, its files will not be deleted. You can FTP in and delete them manually.
• If you have changed the BlogSpot address of your blog, your pages may still remain at the old location, without a way for your to delete them. (We do plan on getting this bug fixed at some point.) In this case, please just write to us and tell us the old address and we’ll remove the pages for you. Alternatively, you can create a new blog at that address and make a post redirecting people to your new location.

I added more categories. Unfortunately, WordPress can not move old posts from a category to another.

Or I don’t know yet how to do this.
