First Impressions of WordPress 2.0
Tuesday, January 3rd, 2006This is going to be a post which will be interesting only to fellow techno-geeks. So, I have placed most of it below the fold. If you aren’t a geek, feel free to pass this post up.

Conversion to WordPress 2.0 Complete
Tuesday, January 3rd, 2006This morning I converted the software used to maintain this blog to WordPress 2.0. The conversion was virtually painless, with the trouble coming from my mistake of uploading images as ASCII text. Most of the changes are under the hood in nature, so you shouldn’t notice any changes. One of the most noticeable changes is [...]
Design Tweaks
Wednesday, August 31st, 2005A few design tweaks to tell you about: Post Titles: I found a nifty little WordPress Plugin called Image Headlines. Simply put, it rocks. I converts the text of your post title (or any other text you desire) into images of any True Type Font you choose. I think it makes the posts look better. [...]
New Look and Design
Monday, August 29th, 2005After a lot of work and study, I have converted this blog to WordPress 1.5.2. As you may remember, I tried to do this awhile back but was unsuccessful. However, after taking a look at the new version of Movable Type, I decided to give WordPress an all-out effort. A few things will be broken [...]
OK, We’re Back!
Monday, August 22nd, 2005The transition to Movable Type 3.2b is compete. After a few problems with the Main Index Template, all now appears to be well. Regular blogging will continue shortly.
Notice: Blog Will Be Offline For A Short While
Friday, August 19th, 2005I’ll be upgrading the blog software to Movable Type 3.2, beta 5. During this process, the availability of the blog may be spotty until the upgrade is complete. I apologize for the inconveniece, but I just have to have the newest toy to play with!
Design Tweaks Completed — For Now
Thursday, August 4th, 2005Well, my temporary flirtation with WordPress 1.5 has come to an end. In order to get the blog to display the way I want it to, I’d have to spend at least a solid two weeks working on the two stylesheets required (one for Internet Explorer, the other for the other browsers) by the theme [...]
Blog Revisions
Wednesday, April 27th, 2005I have made a few subtle changes in the blog’s style sheet. Hopefully, these changes will make the blog easier to read and look better. I changed the color of the hyperlinks from blue to black. Black just looks better with red, grey, and white. At the bottom of each entry, I’ve replaced the text [...]
This Is Going To Be Great!
Thursday, April 7th, 2005Okay, now I am trying a blogging tool called Movable Poster. It is a free-standing program that should allow me to post to the blog.
Finally Got Categories To Work!
Thursday, April 7th, 2005I finally got the categories to work when posting via the Newsgator plugin for Outlook. This should make posting a lot easier from work. Hopefully, this will allow me to post a lot more!

Friday, April 1st, 2005As you’ve probably noticed, I have replaced all of the red in the blog design with blue. I just wanted a change. I’m undecided about whether or not to keep the blue, return to red, or maybe just rotate several colors over a period of time. CSS makes that easy enough, but I just don’t [...]
