Blog gardening
Tweaked these pages a bit. The stylesheet's been given a minor facelift, and there's now also an alternative stylesheet with relative size units -- the text can be resized through the browser. I was trying to change the default styles to relative units, but gave up when I couldn't find a way to overcome the huge discrepancy between the sizes on PCs and Macs. (Basically, fonts would either be too big on the PC or too small on the Mac at the browsers' default settings.) The style sheet switcher is from Alistapart, but it won't work on 4.x browsers (Damn, just noticed while getting the URL that there's a newer script I could've used.) I've tried to improve the layout styles -- I realise most people have been seeing horizontal scrollbars on these pages now for weeks, but they're not without problems yet. I'll have to swallow my pride and consult css-discuss. Templates are also finally provided for archives and individual entries. Please let me know of any display problems.
I wish I had more time to get to know Moveable Type better; I still have many questions...

Good point. It's set to display the last 30 entries -- when I installed MT I didn't want all the old stuff to instantly disappear, but I think I can shorten it a bit... P.S. — nice em-dash.

(HTML is OK. Two linebreaks are converted to a <p>, one linebreak to a <br />. Represent all occurrences of <, >, and & by character or entity references, i.e. <, >, and &.)
it's great to see you're blogging more regularly; i'll be reading more regularly!
it seems as though your index page holds all of your posts however — it's getting a bit heavy.
trim it down?
