So what do you do when you find that you’ve got a wonderful new web-host and you’ve got to get a new site up which ties together three different old ones in no time flat with room for future expansion?

Simple. ikiwiki to the rescue.

Just

1. jot down your notes a few pages of beautifully simple markdown,
2. drop in a few extra static files,
3. call ikiwiki (with appropriate arguments),
4. rsync the results up to the server,

and away we go!
