The Rabid Paladin

As you may have noticed, MSN Spaces has officially changed to Windows Live Spaces. The URL has changed and I notice that redirects are in place. I'm not sure how long those will remain valid, so update as needed (if you're using my Feedburner RSS feed, no worries--I've updated that already and nothing else will change. This is an unlooked-for bonus on using Feedburner as an aggregator re-publisher).

Anyway, I like what they've done with the place. My favorite change (by far) is the addition of Gadgets. There are a couple of new modules available that I have taken advantage of (though you might notice that I have no friends as yet), and I've been exploring third-party stuff. Since it is a pretty new paradigm, there's not a lot available yet. That'll no doubt change over time. Also, since I'm a .NET development kind of guy, I may find myself popping the hood a little and seeing what's what. Actually, I've done that a little bit already and there's some juicy bits there.

So if you drop by some time and find weirdness, it's just me rearranging the furniture a bit. Or experimenting with my own creations (scary, I know).
