So, if you’ve been hanging around these parts for awhile, you’ll remember that this blog was down for about a month. Down, down, not just not being updated, but server down. It’s been back up for about two weeks and things have mostly shaken out - and I’m seeing what SEO effects occurred because of [...]

You know, if you travel in my august circles, you’d already know about Disqus (pronounced “discuss”). It’s the comment service that everyone’s talking about. Yup, that’s right, in my circles everyone talks about blog commenting services. Don’t be jealous.
I’d been reading and seeing how it was the bomb, most recently a post by Fred Wilson. [...]

Well, work’s calmed down and I’ve lost hope of recovering my old files so I brought #comments backup on another server with slightly old files. But it is now state of the art at Wordpress 2.5.1 which was a painless upgrade from my old 2.x install. I admit that I don’t really love 2.5.1 very [...]

Well it finally happened - my curse ended this week. It culminated on Wednesday when we received our iLuv i777 iPod alarm clock from Amazon. It arrived to us kinda broken, but working enough to see that even if it was fully operational (Death Star style) it still would have sucked. Sigh. The following day, [...]

Awesome. So, I got the call on Friday afternoon that my iMac was fixed and I could pick it up. So, thankfully I had left it at the Apple 5th Ave store which is open 24/7 so I picked it up on the way home that night. I dreamed sweet dreams of my 24″ screen [...]

Wow, I think someone just hacked this blog. Got here a 20 minutes ago to find that the site was kinda messed and the admin was telling me to upgrade. Since I’m not about to upgrade (for some reason, even clean installing isn’t smooth on my system - upgrades don’t work here automatically) I discovered [...]

Well. My poor iMac seems to have shorted a backlight, or something. As you can see by my lovely iPhone pic, the lower half of my screen is all dark - makes things slower for moi. Hence the not much posting… need to bring it in to the see the Genius’s this weekend, hopefully it’s [...]
