About Last Night

Terry Teachout on the arts in New York City

TT: Our (new) old selves again

April 23, 2007 by Terry Teachout

After a week of tweaking, adjusting, practicing, and otherwise getting used to our new publishing platform, I’m pleased (and relieved) to say that “About Last Night” once more looks the way it’s supposed to look. Making the switch to Movable Type wasn’t fun, but it turned out to be more than worth the trouble. Alas, Our Girl was out of Chicago on business last week and thus hasn’t had a chance to learn the technical ropes, but Doug McLennan and I hope to have her up and running within a few days.
The only problem we haven’t yet managed to fix is that our alternate URL, www.terryteachout.com, is still bouncing to the main ArtsJournal page instead of “About Last Night.” I don’t know why. The techies don’t know why. Nobody knows why. But we’re all working on it….
I’m also pleased to announce that the right-hand column has been updated, and I also added a half-dozen new blogs to “Sites to See.” Check it all out.
Now, back to blogging!
