I’ve successfully managed to repair my blog and tweak it to the needs of Virtual MultiBlog. Though you don’t see any changes (I’ll tackle the intended theme change at a later time), this site is now powered by WP on Virtual MultiBlog. Yes sir! My quest for a multi-blog solution is over.
Stay tuned, I’ll report the details soon.

Widget Voodoo Release 1.0.4 Supports Variable Title Styling
Widget Voodoo morphs sidebar widgets into stylishly collapsible objects. The new release goes one step further in “stylishness” and adds support to variable styling of widget titles depending on the collapsed/expanded state of the widget.

Have fun! And a happy Easter to everybody!
