About

I believe I have had enough of the About Me Gadget...

...which from 2020 reads "Labelled: Mica, Michaelina, Mike, moonflowerdragon, Mum, dag; I am a librarian who values compassionate communication and constructive critique. 2012-2017 I experimented with self-hosted Wordpress, then came back".

I cannot find a record of what was originally in the gadget, but by 2011 it contained:
"LibraryCode1.0:[LRSStAInD+8GenR++*lsfmrjneN++B4TP+ Cs+IT+Cat++Ma+Ddc+RFdivs]" which you can if you wish Decode thanks to Wayback Machine's archive of an old ALIA page about LibraryCode1.0

For the fun of it in 2021:

Re-routing mid-journey (WP-->Blogger)

20210117
  • Haven’t done as much shifting as I’d have liked. 
  • Received another reminder about WP host renewal coming up in 29 days. I won’t get it done in time with the current plan. Began wondering whether perhaps I could split the plan, 
  1. Focussing on getting my content out ; 
  2. (later) uploading to Blogger. 
  • To be able to do 2 the way I want I will need from and for each post:
    • Webarchive link of original post (except for drafts)
    • HTML of original post (prob save to Notepad files)
    • Capture images

To celebrate the idea, here is a photo I took on this day 5 years ago - this time of year being a jigsaw fest with GUF.  Hm, I was going to embed it from my Flickr account; *but* Flickr has been at risk in the past, and while it has so far survived, it might not, so perhaps I ought not rely on it. 

While doing this, I'm also going to see whether HTML 5  figure element will let me align a caption as I wish:
