Getting back into blogging - big week at AoPS

I'm having a tough time getting back into blogging since we moved to the new server. Part of it is that the blog stuff doesn't look like it used to, which makes it easy for me to break my habit. Also, it doesn't yet quite work right, but it's getting there. Ultimately, I think we'll be able to make the blogging system considerably more robust than the old system. (Please pitch in your comments about what needs to be done to the system.)
A weak excuse is that it was a big week at AoPS - I should be blogging the big wins, not using them as an excuse not to blog. Specifically, we published the next book in our new series, Introduction to Number Theory. Also, AoPSWiki is growing faster than I imagined it would. I'm hopeful that it will become a great repository not just of mathematics, but of math events like contests and scholarships, and math tools, like LaTeX and Geometry programs. We'll see.
I'm finally getting back to writing the Intro Algebra book, which consumes much of my writing energy. Speaking of which, back to writing about functions now. . . (Yikes this book is gonna be long. I'm just under 300 pages now - I think it's going to be longer than the geometry book.)
