Well after months and months and months of planning, coding, setbacks and begging for help from Pinoyboy, my new site design is complete. What do you think of it?
[4 Comments]
Yup, I missed two milestones. My 3rd year anniversary of this blog (October 2!) and my 1000th post (Not Just Good, Great), which is ironic since today is the day I’m off to see the “Genius” to see about the MacBook experience that started in that post. I’ve also racked up 520 comments (REALLY?), and I missed the 500th comment which was Pinoyboy’s comment on the MBX vs. BootCamp post. What really blows my mind was this time last year, I was posting about my 500th post or my 2nd year anniversary, wondering which would come first and then bang… in another year I doubled the amount of posts? What the heck? Anywho… I just wanted to write a quick thank you to those of you who read and comment on this blog! If it wasn’t for you… there’d be no point in blogging! Hey y’all, I’m really sorry that the site has been languishing. I haven’t gotten the sidebars fixed yet or much blogging done because… I’m having server issues. So we’re moving. To another hosting company. I’ve uploaded the files and loaded the database…now we just have to wait for the DNSes to update. See you there! So my blog is misbehaving. I write code, it works on my local version (on Henrietta, my PowerBook), and when I upload it…nada. She no listen to me. I must bend this b*tch to my will. She will obey. Or not. Apparently it’s her choice. I picked the brain of the best programmer I know this side of, well the world… Ed. We took a look at some stuff and he helped me figure out that it’s NOT the database which was at once suspect to me… it seems to be in fact the files on the server. I’ve deduced that perhaps it’s even the whole Wordpress 2.0 install I did. I don’t know what the heck is going on so I’m going to put up a dummy page this evening and do some work on her. I noticed some bugs in my code too… like archive pages don’t have a NEXT or LAST link. I also am going to make some changes. Maybe even a third column to help unclutter the right column? I dunno… I’m still working on it. One thing that can be sure is that the NEWSBLOG is going away…sort of. If you never noticed, there was always a small news blog section where I posted stories daily, sometimes hourly that interested me. However that’s gotten lax and too much work so now I just do it when I really find something that I like. But… it’s taking up way to much space AND… people have comment that they can’t comment on it. So… news blog items will now be posted to the normal blog with a category of some kind. And the last story I posted was so good that it will be the first posting in this manner. Thanks for reading… me. Well I did it. Thanks in large part to all my friends support but especially to Ed for his coding help, dude you are A GOD! What the fuck am I going on about? Oh My Pod, my podcast is now home at macboyx.com. That’s right we have two things goin on here now, the being boring blog and the podcast, then go for it, have a look. If you’ve never read the blog, well same advice. Everyone enjoy! Sometime this week, I will be moving the site from the IIS server it’s on to a Linux server where PMP Podcast is hosted. I think it will occur on Wednesday but I’m not sure. More info as it comes. Well my new podcast with Mike P of Blather and Bosh has a new home. The website is finally up!
