I know things look a little odd right now – the paint is still drying on this sucker…but welcome to the new site! Over the next couple of days I’ll be tweaking stuff out and making things look real pretty-like…but for now, please excuse all the scaffolding and plaster.

Why the change? Well, I was getting awfully tired of dealing with all the wierd, idiosyncratic CMS that is Xoops. No offense to Xoops or it’s developers, but it was really just getting in the way of doing what we like to do, namely write stuff about Asian Pop Culture.

Hence the move to WordPress, IMHO the best pure blogging tool on the planet. I’m sure there are those who aren’t too fond of WordPress, but after messing around with it for a few weeks now on my laptop, I’m happy as a clam. It’s forced me to pick up some PHP skillz, but that’s a good thing, right?

Anwyay, nuff ‘said about the new diggs. I’ll be posting like crazy over the weekend, bringing back some old and recent content from the old site…

Stay tuned!
