I don't think Mooquackwooftweetmeow has ever really hit its stride. There may have been <a href="/weblog021" title="Planet X-2, for example">a few moments</a> back when the Mooquackwooftweetmeow 4 weblog was new, and perhaps <a href="/planetx4" title="Planet X-4 was pretty good">the odd moment of glory fairly recently</a>; but it's never been a constant fountain of genius. </p>
<p>
Now, I'm not saying that Mooquackwooftweetmeow will <em>never</em> gather momentum and flourish into the most spectacularly astounding website ever, just that it won't be doing so any time soon. <em>Especially</em> since Mooquackwooftweetmeow currently lives in my university webspace and I recently left university, which means there's a pretty good chance it and <a href="http://www.thetwaddle.co.uk/">The Twaddle</a> will fall off the edge of the internet at some point in the near future. </p>
<p>
I <em>am</em> doing other stuff—it just all lives elsewhere on the web—so in the meantime, <a href="/">the front page</a> has morphed into a summary of that stuff. The Mooquackwhatnotbot is a clunky old thing, and my connection to the university's servers is a bit dodgy at the best of times; so having The Man host my content is considerably more convenient than doing everything myself. </p>
<p>
While Mooquackwooftweetmeow exists online, it'll <em>always</em> be at <a href="http://purl.org/mooquackwooftweetmeow/">http://purl.org/mooquackwooftweetmeow/</a>, and most probably at <a href="http://gkn.me.uk">http://gkn.me.uk</a>. (Hi, Google cache!) </p>
