Vox

Hello, I am blogging over at Vox now. Will probably keep the personal stuff over there for the time being, assuming they keep their shit together. Meaning to post a summation of what I think of community blog sites in general (hint: I think they make a lot of sense), but I hot damn, I am busy these days. Anyway, if any of you want a starter invite to Vox, let me know. Starter accounts let you comment and build a profile, but not actually blog as of yet. That how I started out, but eventually got upgraded. Might happen to you, too.

The difference a year makes

One year ago yesterday, I started my first day as an independent contractor, after leaving a unrewarding job and a de-humanizing commute in an attempt to, you know, not hate life anymore. I am glad to report that it worked. Quite well, in fact. If you hate your job, I highly suggest quitting it immediately and getting a better one. You need to be happy.

.plan

Ok, so what's up? Lemme tell you. I had originally taken down the blog because I was taken with the bliki idea, and was planning to switch over to a nifty little package named Leonardo, because it looked like it did everything I wanted. And it kind of does, or at least it plans to. I like the fact that it is written in python, and I liked the overall design of the app itself, but it definetly seems a little beta, which I guess I can only expect from a 0.7 release. It mostly does what I want now, except that it has no list for recent changes, and more importantly, it is horribly, horribly slow. There are plans to include page caching later, but I am impaitent, so I dropped the idea and am back to MT for now.

I did, however, finally find a piece of wiki software that I can stand, and it has been installed here. I chose Dokuwiki because it is rather full featured, has many plugins already, is not horrible to work with and skins decently. There's not alot of info in it right now, but I will be updating it at will from now on.

Eventually I will re-design this blog, but I am lazy, so a default template will do for now.

Update: styled.

something... else

i'm gonna switch things up a bit here soon. this blog will probably no longer be updated, but the archives will stay around. it will be replaced with something else. what that is, i dunno yet. i am leaning towards a wiki of some sort, since i am kind of thinking that non-linear indexing is much more interesting than blogging these days, at least as far as homepages go. i just need a place to collect me-related stuff online. i'm thinking unstoppable.org will probably become much more general link-blogging oriented. i will probably resurrect the del.icio.us account for that, so i can integrate it with wordpress or something.

it's just that blogs are just so y2k, you know?
