Over a year ago, I migrated nick.pro from WordPress over to Drupal. I did this so that I could experiment with Drupal more, thinking I could make a more robust site if I did so.

That’s right, I said it, and so far I’m the only one who has. Google has announced that extensions are coming to Google Chrome but have been mum on when.

I recently migrated nick.pro and other sites from regulus over to a new server named Atlas, it’s much more powerful, but there were some hiccups in the transfer that I’m slowly having to iron out. I also just upgraded WordPress to the new 2.7, and I must say, I’m not a big fan of the …
