State Of The Blog – April 2024

Normally, I’d be posting this on the first day of the month (or at least some time after it)… but tomorrow’s April 1st and you know what that usually means…

More complete notes after the break…

In other news, we’ve got one more week of Ramblemanias and then a final word on McMahon on the Saturday of Wrestlemania weekend. One week later, there’s going to be a DTM-Cast covering Mania and then a day or so later will be when the 40th Ramblemania post will be up. PPV Musings should start soon afterwards, beginning with the first TNA PPV of the year, Hard To Kill, and followed by what may very well be the absolute worst wrestling show I’ve seen in decades. How’s that for a tease?
Video uploads will resume on Friday, April 5th with the AEW game review (yes, review the AEW during WRESTLEMANIA WEEKEND). Review A Great Game Week involves five days of reviewing Street Fighter II and then after that… eh.

In a bit of blog maintenance news, I’ve relinked some of the Ramblemania posts on the PPV Musings page to direct folks to the newer Ramblemania Rewind posts. The old Ramblemania posts that originally originated on the old DTM Blog have been deleted. This is the start of a slow process to start culling old material from the blog and move it onto an archive site elsewhere. To make a long story short, this is being done for the sake of a potential change in the future that I don’t want to get into just yet, but know that this stuff will eventually be seen again. It just won’t be here.

How mysterious…

BLOG TRANSFER REPORT
For those who haven’t been following along, these liner notes were not part of the original State Of The Blog when the blog was over at Blogger. I’ve made a note to keep track of progress in transferring the content from that blog to this one and hopefully, it’ll give some of you folks some insight on how we’re doing things here.

This month was spent mostly renaming URLs for the purposes of linking this things to pages so that people can look these things up more easily. This includes PPV Musings, game and book reviews, and other things. I’ve also been transferring a lot of imagery to the WordPress site manual and even with the limited amount of space I’m afforded with this free account, all these images use up less than 5% of the space available… and that also includes stuff that was brought over during the transfer, which I’m slowly trying to clear out because I’ve got cleaner files that I’d rather use. It’s a convoluted process, for sure, but it helps me get the job done and keep my sanity.

Right now, the priority is getting the bigger posts up and running.
