Why a "new" blog

I promised earlier that I would elaborate a bit about why I changed over from the Waterswing Blog to the new Trond Ulseth blog.

Wrong company profile
Waterswing Studio is a company I've been running on my spare time for more years than I care to remember. However, mostly due to lack of time/priority, and partly due to problems with 3rd party server providers, it was never a money making business, and I am now just totaly leaving it behind. At the same time I'm working as full time employee (and part owner) with IDLmedia AS that is where I do most of my CF and web development. And it just felt a bit weird to blog about stuff that came up in that job on the Waterswing site. So hopefully the change will lead to more blog postings.

End of anonymity
As Charlie Arehart blogged there are many who participate/contribute to the CF community but do so anonymously. I myself was a sinner in this regard. Many people knew that I was the guy behind the Waterswing blog, but so many more people did not. I just want people to know who I am and who is talking, partly because I plan to participate in more and more conferences in the future, and I think it's better to know who you're meeting. For the same reasons I am now trond|ulseth in #Coldfusion on Dalnet, as opposed to dnort (my earlier nick there). I'm also trond[at]ulseth.no on MSN, and trondulseth on Skype and Gmail. So here I am! This is me!

A chanse to update blogCFC
Ok, this I could have done on the old blog as well, but it was more fun doing it on a new blog.

Clean up entries
Due to a move of server provider, I had to migrate the database from the old blog. Something went wrong, and a lot of the entries ended up being double posts. With the move to the new blog I cleaned out all the double posts.
