Changes
Lots of change going on lately, in personal life and on this blog... After over a year using the October Special theme for Wordpress (Great theme by Derek Punsalan), I've started changing things around on this blog. The new theme is called Garden 3.0. The nav menu is sitting over the search form, so guess there's some debugging to be done. Also, rather than use the standard photo/image that came with this theme, I decided to use a panoramic shot of New York City at night, taken and stitched together by Ryan McGinnis. You can see his photostream here.VODKA, Connecting People - Funny t-shirt
I saw a collegue wearing this hilarious T-Shirt on Friday! He apparently bought it for 3 bucks in Ukraine. Found a site that sells it online at $15.

This blog has just gone thru major surgery!
As the title indicates, this blog has just gone through major surgery - upgrading from Wordpress 2.0.6 to 2.1 (Ella). This has been quite an effort, partly my fault as I did not use Dreamhost's great One-Click-Install when I first got wordpress working. I should thank the wordpress community, in particular the great upgrade guide, list of plugins known/not-known to work and of course the code-edits to get Ultimate Tag Warrior to work @ this site. Following all the instructions actually worked without a hitch! Its only been 20 minutes since I upgraded though. Technorati Tags: wordpress, wordpress 2.1
Technorati Tag Cloud - Wordpress plugin / widget
I just added a Technorati Tag Cloud to the sidebar on the right. The widget is from here: Random Thoughts » Plugin Update However, I ran into a problem with multiple PHP warnings: "Call-time pass-by-reference has been deprecated - argument passed by value" for passing arguments by reference. Made the appropriate changes in the code and it works fine. Technorati Tags: wordpress, technorati, tag cloud, tags, phppowered by performancing firefox
Snap Preview Anywhere enabled on this blog
Techcrunch » Blog Archive » Add Snap Previews to Any Site For FreeLast week they launched Snap Preview Anywhere, a free service that lets any site owner add previewing technology to their sites. When installed, every link on the site (internal links are optional) will show a preview of the linked site when a viewer hovers over the link. To see how it works, hover over the “Try Snap Preview Anywhere here” link near the top of this page. Snap Product Evangelist Jason Fields and Business Development executive Joseph Sarmiento gave me a demo of Snap Preview Anywhere at the Web 2.0 Summit last week.After reading this Techcrunch article recently, I've enabled Snap Preview Anywhere on this blog. There's a wordpress plugin available to enable this functionality. Technorati Tags: snap preview anywhere, wordpress

Moving into Wordpress on my own domain
I'm in the process of moving my blog over from Typepad to a Wordpress installation on my own domain. A Lively Mind - hosted by Dreamhost, I highly recommend them! While I'm setting things up, please bear with me if you see templates changing, various items appearing and disappearing from the view and default information from the templates not being updated with accurate info on this site. Also, you might notice references to Typepad from earlier posts. I shall at some point add updates to reflect the fact that the blog is no longer hosted at Typepad.About Me
