A domain name, at last
You may notice that you are getting redirected to neomeme.net. Yes that’s right, this blog finally has an actual domain. How exciting! To celebrate, here are some of my favorite posts so far, all linkified with the new domain name, in chronological order:

Congrats on the “acquisition”! Thing is though - you’ll have a whole new set of registrations to make (technorati for one will see it as a different blog).
One piece of advice, since you’re hosed with technorati as well then change neomeme.net to be a landing page and put the blog at neomeme.net/blog
This gives great flexibility in the future, because first time readers can get an introduction to what your site is all about (and it also conveniently lets you link out to other projects you may have from the front page).
@majic Hopefully Technorati won’t be too picky, and follow redirects- and more importantly, hopefully Google will do the same. Although after reading a few Technorati horror stories, I’m not so sure.
@engtech: Unfortunately Wordpress does not allow redirects to the blog from subdirectories.
Now that I know a domain is important from the beginning, I think other projects will get their own domain names right away

@Ilya: you can do it with Wordpress.com, but only for the specific case I was talking about.
It’s under Dashboard >> Options >> Front Page Displays
It lets you change the front page to a static page and move the blog to a separate page.
Great for giving new readers an introduction.
