Sunday projects

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

Spent part of the day today upgrading the Child Abuse blog to Movable Type version 3.2. The upgrade process wasn’t too difficult, but there have been some slight changes to the admin sections that’ll take some getting used to, and it’ll take me a few days of use to really get a feel for the new features before I can give you all an educated opinion, but I think the upgrade will be a good thing.

The other project was looking over submitted proposals for the Friends of the Library website. I like what I’m seeing there technology-wise. I think we’ve got some people who share my vision for putting in place the infrastructure for the site to grow into going forward. Now we’ll just have to see if we can communicate that vision to others effectively and whether that’s the plan they’ve envisioned!

And the beauty of having a three day weekend, is that I still have a day to enjoy with my wife after getting that done today!

    But I didn’t think it would happen this soon! Jonas dropped me an email early this morning asking why I didn’t cover Feedreader in the latest article. For the record, I did cover Feedreader in one of the followups to Part 1. It crashed repeatedly when I tried to run it and try it out,…

    Well the website for That Hosting Company isn’t back, but they did start sending out emails with new account info to their customers, so that’s a good sign! There’s still no information about what took so long or who they supposedly merged with, so I’m still glad I left, rather than try to deal with…

    For the record, this was how I spent most of my morning, and I’m passing this along in case you ever have to fix this. When someone tries to send a 135MB attachment, and it gets stuck in their Outbox in Outlook, this would seem to be the best solution. Unplug the machine from the…
