  1. I’ve moved hosting providers. I used to have my own linux co-located in a secret datacenter somewhere in LA. However, my free-loading days are over and I had to move to hosting provider. I’d tell you which one but I want to see how good they are before I start plugging them.
  2. I’ve migrated the blog from MovableType to Wordpress. So far, I’m impressed with Wordpress. I’m not much of a blogger but it’s got a lot of features I find useful.
  3. I’ve moved my mail to Google Apps. It allows me to use the Gmail interface for my mail and get Google’s SPAM protection. So far, so good.

Hopefully none of these changes you will actually notice, because if you do then I didn’t do my job very well. :-)

They go back as far as 6/5 so be sure and check them out. As far as captions go, Kelly and I are going to go through and add as many as we can this weekend.

It turns out that there are people out there who use MovableType sites to post links to various sites in the comments section. In just the past couple days I’ve received 6 comment submissions with links to poker and viagra sites. To help stop this from happening on my site, I have added a blacklist function to keep the spammers out, so hopefully this will solve the problem. If you ever get blocked from adding a comment, let me know.

The photo gallery is still here and all my old blog entries have been imported over. The only things that’s been lost is the member list. The only membership on the site now is for the photo gallery and you only need that if you want access to special albums. You can self-register, if you want, on the photo gallery page.

Comments and suggestions are always welcome…

Well, the reason is that my camera bag went missing and I have no way to charge the battery in my camera. So, instead of replacing all the charging gear ($100) I decided to buy a five megapixel camera. I’ve been wanting one for a while and with the camera bag missing and my trip to Europe coming up, it’s all I needed. So, it should be here in a week and then you can expect some more pics.

Let me know what you think. You can add your comments by clicking the comments link below this text.
