Welcome!

By

Welcome one and all to the new and improved home of Frenchy’s Rant!

In this space will be the most amazing tales of travel and adventure, the most wretched bitch-fests about blatant stupidity, the most sordid tales of life on the road, the most stunning photography ever and, of course, whatever else my caffeine addled brain can conjure up.

In other words, it’ll be the same ol’ shit, just at a new address. However, there are a few improvements that I’m pretty excited about.

Pictures in posts will now be clickable, which means that the tiny photos that accompany blog posts can now be admired in complete hi-res glory. Check it out by clicking on this awesome photo:

Look! Captions! Awesome!

Look! Captions! Awesome!

In addition, now, when I am on a long distance motorcycle ride, the SPOT tracker map pinpointing my exact location will show up as the home page. Not particularly thrilling, unless you realize I am nearby and feel like buying me a cocktail or two. Another feature that should prove worth it’s weight in gold (or Macallan!)

Also, comments are now about as easy to leave as possible. I kept telling myself the reason I hardly got any comments before was the ridiculous hoops that Blogger.com made people jump through just to leave their thought on a post. So, try the new comment feature out below and let me know if it sucks or not.

All of the old posts from blogger.com have been imported here, and will be classified by category (whenever I get around to it.) WordPress offers a lot of other fun little bells, whistles, gadgets and doodads that I will be adding once I figure out exactly how that’s done.

Thanks to all the Faithful Fifteen for coming to the new site!

Never fear, regularly scheduled yawn-inspiring posts will resume shortly.

    Looks great! Much better than blogger already. One suggestion though. The RSS feed option on sends a summary of the post. I would love to be be able to pull the whole post up in my feed reader.
