Recently I moved Jasonian.org from the Mac behind my DSL line to a "real" webserver at Dreamhost. For some reason I don't remember, this required me to make a change in Ecto, the tool I use to write and publish to Jasonian.org, and in doing so, I lost all the drafts of articles or ideas I'd written but not published.—Continue reading....
