On a technical note, after much faffing, I have finally upgraded the richardcarter.com website to use SSL (Secure Sockets Layer).
For the non-technically inclined among you, all this means is:
- the site is more secure (for you and me)
- the addresses of all pages on the site now begin with https:// rather than http://
Despite the address changes, any old links from other sites should be forwarded automatically to the new addresses, as should any bookmarks in your browsers.
The old addresses for the site’s RSS feeds should also continue to work, but, if you want to update your RSS reader, the new combined feed address is:
https://richardcarter.com/metafeed.xml
I shall be making a similar upgrade to the Friends of Charles Darwin website shortly.
