Just a quick note today about a website upgrade that will be happening soon. Laure Axiom Design Works and I have bought our own VPS over at SLHost the other day, so I’ll be officially transferring off Netfirms before November. Netfirms, it’s been a good 7 year ride, but I just can’t stand the slow MySQL servers and your weird mod_rewrite abnormalities. So I’m taking my ball and going home… well, not really, but you get the idea.
Happy spring everyone! Yes, I am quite aware that it has been “officially” spring for quite some time, but for those of us in Pittsburgh, it is finally just really starting. That’s right, it isn’t -35º F anymore (even though it was like 39º F this morning), trees are becoming green, kids are outside playing sports… Ah! It’s just fantastic. That, and it’s been sunny for like the past week, which never happens out here. So for those of you sitting inside and playing video games (which I normally would heartily endorse), get out there and enjoy it before it’s 105º F and your face melts.
I just wanted to post a quick update that Joelika.com is now OpenID enabled. That’s right, because Joelika.com has always been on the bleeding edge of new technology trends (or at least we might have been back in 1999, when yes, we were partying like it was 1999), all you OpenID kids can actually prove your identity, and post as yourselves. Killer!
Salutations Joelika.com readers! (Geeze, Joel that was nerdy) So it’s official, I am really really bad at updating. I was recently looking at my archive for 2006, and I think there are maybe 5 posts total for the entire year… It doesn’t even split onto two pages (so embarrassing)! So as to not embarass myself as much this year, I plan on updating at least more than 5 times (1 page break, here we come!)… and I am already half way there! Score! But no, in all seriousness, I am going to update as much as humanly possible, and don’t forget about commenting! I will respond to you within a couple of hours… except on weekends. Then I’ll probably wait until Monday so it looks like I have a life even though I’ve probably seen your comment and I am just ignoring you, but that’s besides the point. I am around and alive, so if you want to hear my hilarious banter between updates, you can also post a comment. Come on! You’ll like it!
Man, what the heck. It’s like I turn around for one second and BAM! It’s been two months since my last update, and if that isn’t bad enough, it’s also the start of a new year. Whoa… It’s like I was time travel’n or something! Oh well, I’m sure the December holiday season was pretty hectic for all of my most favorite internet viewers out there as well (that’s you chief) and you really didn’t miss me all that much… or did you? Oh you guys! You’re so sweet.
