New Look? What do you think?
Thought it was time for a new look for T-F after three years. I miss the old montage but I like this zippy super cool sliding thing!

While I don’t have a cell phone that will even read this page…I do understand that the world is moving in that direction. To that end, here is a mobile version of this blog via MoFuse. Just to see if I could do it. Off to find someone with a phone that can read it!
I am in the middle of moving my office at work. That coupled with two days of out of town meetings last week means that I have been all but silent on the blogosphere. When I checked in today, I was a bit sad to see the last 5 postings were from my del.icio.us posting “thingy” (their word – not mine..I would use doodad or some other technically savvy term).
That struck me as blog-lazy. So, I deleted that. My plan was to use that feed as a way to make a very easy backup of the sites that I link in del.icio.us. And, it is that. But, it also seems to be the only fresh content and I don’t really like that so much.
So, off to find something else for capturing the deliciousness of social bookmarking but without acting like it is the main author of the blog.

I noticed that Step 3 of the installtion instructions said to consider rewarding yourself with a blog post about the upgrade.
Done!

Pretty impressive statistics for Blog Action Day
It was fun to be a part of something so global. Shows the power of people behind the technology.
I have had my battles with DNS but I think things are going on the right path now. Stay tuned…I have files moved. I have a new theme selected. I have tweaked the banner images. I still have some other things to take care of but I need a compu-break.
I may not post for a few days but don’t worry – I am still keeping up with P365. I’ll get caught up shortly.
Keep those cards and letters coming.
We are going to switch hosting providers. I’m going to start this weekend but I have a few days before this hosting plan ends. So, things might be strange for a few days while I move files. I also want to change templates so the look of this site might change while I try some on for size. We’ll see how it goes.
So, I have been upgrading other folks WP installations to the latest and greatest (named for Ella Fitzgerald – a true great, herself). But, I have been neglecting my own little part of the blog-osphere. What’s up with that?
I am going to dive in and back up everything and bring myself up to date in good old WordPress fashion. If things seem a bit wonky along the way – bear with me…I’ll try to get it straightened out.
Off to FTPland.
ADDITIONAL NOTE: 4 hours later..that project is done! Wow, is FTP really really slow with my host. Enough to consider going somewhere else when this contract expires. At least I also got vacuuming, dusting, dishes, laundry started, bathrooms cleaned and more done as well.
The upgrade to WP 2.1.2 seemed to go okay..just S L O W….
As I build out this new home of mine..I am adding it to my Flock browser for easy blog posting. Fun!
