    "html": "<p>When I started this blog back in 2004, I wanted it to be a single location for me to publish on any and all topics that piqued my interest.  However, events that I have planned for the future (more on that later!) make me think it would be wise to split the blog in two: one for more professional topics, and one for those that are more personal.</p>\n<p>This existing .com blog will continue to be where I publish regarding technical, development, programming, management, and other professional topics.  The new <a href=\"http://paul-m-jones.org\">.org blog</a>, will be \"everything else,\" including the political and economics posts that some of my readers love and others loathe.</p>\n<p>The non-development-related posts on this blog have already been moved over to the .org location, and will disappear from this .com site soon. Short of adding rewrite rules for *every single post* that is now only over at the .org site, I can think of nothing that will keep existing links to those posts from breaking. My apologies to those of you who are affected.  Comments, etc., will be retained.</p>\n<p>Pretty soon, I'm going to change the hosting and the theme here as well. With any luck I'll have an announcement thereafter for all the remaining technical readers.</p>\n<p>Thanks for your patience, everybody!</p>\n<p><strong>UPDATE (9:48pm):</strong> Turns out it was relatively easy to select all the post IDs on the .org site and build a list of Apache \"RedirectPermanent\" directives on the .com site, like so:</p>\n<pre>RedirectPermanent /archives/6 http://paul-m-jones.org/archives/6</pre>\n<p>That's courtesy of Apache <code>mod_alias</code>, not <code>mod_rewrite</code>, which is nice.</p>\n"
