I am updating several of my blogs

Well, since it looks like this cancer isn’t going to kill me this year, and, in fact, we’ve turned the tide and are now winning the war with it, I decided that I may do a little blogging now and then.

I’m still not going to get back into blogging like I did the last few years, but certainly more than I did during the last year.

To that end, I’ve been looking for cleaner themes and I’ve found a couple I like.

On my Random Neurons Firing blog (hosted on WordPress.com), I chose their new Coraline theme. Even though their introduction of it did not go nearly as smoothly for some of their clients as they would have liked, it’s working well for me.

So, I changed it a couple of days ago and I think you’ll agree that it looks different (assuming you’ve actually seen the older version).

I was going to use the Coraline theme for this blog, but it hasn’t been released to WordPress.org yet, and I’m really not sure if it will be. If they do release it for use on self-hosted WordPress blogs, I’m going to use it for this one.

In the meantime, I’ve found one that is similar and offers most of the features I want: Revolution Code Blue theme by Brian Gardner.

As long as I was tweaking things, I upgraded this blog to the lastest version of WordPress and everything, luckily, went very smoothly. There were a couple of minor glitches, but they were easily fixed — even in my current, fog-enshrouded, addle-brained condition.

So, I’m happy with it, and I like it better with all the content in a big left column and other ancillary stuff in the two right columns.

What do you think? You know you want to tell me how great (or terrible) the changes are!

If you’re encountering any problems with this new theme, please let me know.

Act on your dream!
