    Switching Blogs Again!

    In a nutshell, the blog has moved to yilinhut.com According to my original plan, ixiezi was just supposed to be a layover station, a place to practice before I bought my own hosting and domain and set up WordPress myself. Later I found that ixiezi’s philosophy and service were both quite good, and I thought I might as well keep using it like this… But in the end I still had to move away. The main problem is that Aixiezi has been terribly slow lately—unacceptably slow. At first, when I started using it, the speed was quite good: exporting XML files could basically reach full speed (over 200k), and refreshing…

    Thought, History, Poetry — One of the Explanations of This Version of the Categorical Scheme

    For the new classification scheme and why I call it “categories,” see “Categories and Hypertext Scholarship in the Network Age.” The present structure was built up while I was moving house; it has not yet undergone any deeper reflection or polishing, and is merely its roughest version. It will certainly keep being adjusted in the future. By the way, since copying the category structure when a blog is imported or exported is the most troublesome part and difficult to handle, when I make minor tweaks on the main blog, the sub-base and the backup probably will not be updated in sync right away; I’ll likely only synchronize them when there…

    Blogcn Really Does Have Log Review After All

    This is precisely why it can only serve as a subsidiary base. Yesterday, after the import was finished, I didn’t look too closely. Today, when I checked, I saw that the number of posts under each category had dropped quite a bit. Going into the backend again, it was plainly supposed to have 871 blog entries—so why were there only 641? I went in once more and, sure enough, Chinese-style WordPress is just different: in the entries there was an extra column called “Under Review,” and there lay my missing 227 posts… I suppose they were screened out according to keywords and some algorithm. Even after a day they still…

    Initial Setup of the Suixuan Sub-Base Completed

    http://philopsychy.blogcn.com/  After blogcn merged with the original yo2, it recently started trying out WordPress. I happened to have an old blogcn account; after digging it out, I found it still usable, so I immediately upgraded it to the WordPress platform. With import/export XML, I quickly copied everything over. But I ran into two problems: first, each imported XML file could be no larger than 2M, so I had to split it into more than ten batches before I could move everything over. Second, after the transfer, the category system became somewhat scrambled: every subcategory was duplicated into two versions—one set with zero posts but retaining the original hierarchical structure, and…

    Blog Relocation Effective Today

    I’d been thinking about moving away from Ycool for several years. Ever since the emails I sent to Ycool’s customer-service mailbox reporting bugs and making suggestions all sank without a trace, I began to keep an eye on other blog service providers. But I never found a suitable place. Domestic blog hosts were either too weak in features or too strict in censorship, while the foreign blogs that should have been reachable were all behind the Great Firewall. Of course, more crucially, I care about historical continuity and unity, and I’m unwilling to sever all my old posts and start over from scratch. Yet moving all the old posts over…

    The Blog’s Indenture

    When we register for a free online service, its “terms of service” are often completely ignored. In fact, this thing really ought to be taken seriously; otherwise, before you know it, you’ve signed a deed of sale for yourself. Recently I’ve been looking for alternatives to Ycool Blog, but I still haven’t found anything suitable. I absolutely won’t use Sina Blog, because its terms of service are basically a deed of sale. What I care about mainly are two things: first, privacy protection; second, protection of intellectual property rights. The policies involved differ greatly from one blog to another, and the difference between blogs inside the firewall and those outside…

    Has the Yiku server apparently moved to the United States? …

    Recently, classmates at school have reported that they can’t open my blog. I checked, and it seems the server has become foreign. Right now it can still be accessed normally on the public internet without needing to climb over the firewall; maybe after a while it will need a VPN…… In any case, the blog data is probably a bit safer, but this can’t go on like this either. Does anyone know a way to move a blog or set up a mirror? ~~~~~~~~ ip138.com IP lookup (searching the geographic location of an IP address) www.ycool.com >> 204.152.221.22 This site’s primary data: United States Reference data 1: United States Reference…
