Only one day after swapping to new blogging software system, Sean Hegarty's friends have already had enough.

"Look, I didn't mind getting that phone call from the Fitzroy police station," said one. "I was happy to vouch for his character."

The friend, who did not wish to be named, then added that "I wouldn't do it again. He's changed. Now all he can discuss are categories and templates. As a result, I just want to shove him down the pipe in his backyard."

Hegarty is believed to have converted to the Movable Type system after finally taking a good look at the manual.
