def __init__(self):

I just installed Your Own URL Shortener or YOURLS on my domain.

I successfully moved this blog to the new domain and changed the permalinks style.

The new url is http://www.radekw.com/blog/. The old one (http://www.donkeynet.org/blogs/radek/) will redirect to the new address including all articles.

My worst fear was google search-ability. Friends could simply search ‘radek wierzbicki blog’ in google and there was my blog. The redirect will help, but the old URL will be shown in google (at least for a while I hope). I reconfigured and submitted the new sitemap to Google Webmaster Tools and created a new profile in Google Analytics. It’ll be interesting to see in few weeks (or months) what effect the domain change has on SEO.

I still don’t know what content to put on the root of my new domain. It redirects to the blog for now.
