Movable Type 4.1
I’ve just moved this site from WordPress over to the latest build of Movable Type 4.1, using the new Universal Templates.
I’ve also decided to retire my old blog – scalefree, and have imported all the content across to here – I’ll be redirecting everything from scalefree shortly.
MT4.1 really rocks – and the new template set mechanism will allow for WordPress-like easy styling – and enabled me to get this complete site up and running in a couple of hours.
Contact me if you want more information, or if you’d like a site like this for yourself !

Anu - welcome (back?) to Movable Type! It is great to hear you like MT4.1. Music to my ears.
MT 4.1 I think is the beginning of something big. It is great to see the community galvanizing around template sets, or "themes" to use WP parlance.
One of the things that I think will set us apart from WP is how we have architected MT to differentiate between the structure and aesthetic of a web site. For example, the Universal Template set defines first and foremost a behavior and HTML structure for a web site - on top of which you can layer any number of styles from Style Catcher. It will be great to see how people customize UTS over time. My personal website is a variant of UTS for example.
