Have finally, finally updated my website. Everything over 500 words that I've posted since April should now be up there, so, um, a bunch of new stuff.

Had to use my old computer to do it, though, since there are several Mac-Windows differences that I'm not sure about. Like all my pages being hand-coded in Notepad, except I don't think Mac OS X has Notepad, and I'm not sure what the equivalent is. Or, basically, what I can use to code my website. Also, need to find an FTP program. Tried Fugu, which a couple people recommended awhile ago, except it requires information for log-on that I don't know. Also tried a few programs I found off the downloads page of the Apple website, but they didn't work.

I really need to figure out how to update my website using a Mac. Keeping my old computer around just for that would be pretty damn inconvenient.

(lurker here) TextEdit comes with OS X, and is roughly equivalent to Notepad. I like BBEdit for something slightly more featured, and it's free. OS X comes with command-line ftp and sftp -- they're not the most intuitive to use but they do work. Just pull up a terminal window and go.

Er...terminal window? And where would I find BBEdit?
