News, Views and Reviews by Michael Rollins in Tokyo
I’ve moved off the servers at the incredibly lame Intermedia.Net and over to a different provider. Among the many sucky things about Intermedia is that they don’t make an Export function available for their WordPress installations. All I have is an SQL backup of the data, which seems not to work at all when moving from 2.0.x to 2.5.x. Please tell me I’m not going to have to re-enter all my posts manually…
Congratulations on finding my personal blog. It's been around in various incarnations since 1997, which is before blogs were called "blogs." See if you can top that.
My name is michael, and denbushi (電武士) is the now-dorky-seeming online name I made up back when I thought (ever so presciently) that some kind of unique nickname for the interwebs might be handy. Just for the record, it IS unique (even today!) except for this jujitsu variant/dojo in Puerto Rico which co-opted it without even asking me. If I had to cage-fight them for exclusive use of "denbushi" chances are good they'd win. But I'd still do it.
These days I live in Tokyo and mostly use my real name. A few years ago I founded a design and marketing agency called netwise. We do web and internet stuff. We're pretty good at it.
