I’ve shifted my old blogger

I’ve shifted my old blogger entries around into the simple file heirarchy used by radio to archive posts. Here’s the archive.

I haven’t put up proper index pages, anyway.

I’ll probably need to scrape the pages to get the posts (or re-export everything in some radio-readable format?)

OK, just checked – the permalinks are per day (per archived page), not per post.
