This Blog Turns 3

Wednesday, January 28th, 2009

Happy Birthday Blog! Is it me or does time seems to go faster when blogging?

I have a long list of posts to write this year and even more software ideas than ever. This year is already off to a great start.

Let me know if there are any topics you would like me to cover on Open AIM, Plugins, AIM Modules, AIM 6.x, etc.

I hope you find the content informative and interesting. Thank you for reading and trying out my plugins.

Just Updated to WordPress 2.7

Monday, January 19th, 2009

This is really just a note to for me to record when I did this and in case anyone might be interested. I updated from WordPress 2.5.1 to 2.7.

The admin UI has improved extensively since the last version and I have been wanting to upgrade for some time since WordPress now support Google Gears. This should make posting a lot more interesting. From a reader’s perspective perhaps nothing has changed.

Let me know if you see any problems. Thanks.

Just upgraded to WordPress 2.5.1

Friday, May 23rd, 2008

Just a quick heads up. I always like to credit WordPress when I upgrade. This also adds the historical record of my change as a post and lets me test it.

So far, this looks sharp. I like the way WordPress tells me that a plugin was updated and gives me the option to update it automattically. ;) Very well done.

Just Upgraded to the Latest WordPress

Saturday, August 25th, 2007

Nothing really important. But I thought it would be good to keep track of this.

My site was down this morning for an important upgrade to the latest version of WordPress. This is the second upgrade in 20 months of using WordPress. So far I am 2 and 0 in the successful (read: aspirin-free) upgrade department.

In other somewhat related news (since I am tracking significant events here), my site has been a little slow this past week. This was because my Web Hosting Provider started upgrading everyone to the latest version of MySQL. Things should be back to normal speed now.

I expect the faster database should make activations a little peppier.

Finally, I added Google Analytics to this site. I am very interested in feedback and will be doing all I can to get as much of it as possible.
