My Readable Feast has the Carnival of the Recipes this week; I’m a bit late with the news, but meh… the recipes won’t go bad. ^_-
My Readable Feast has the Carnival of the Recipes this week; I’m a bit late with the news, but meh… the recipes won’t go bad. ^_-
Well; I guess the good news is I’m TOTALLY going to be posting regularly…
the bad news is that I’m realizing that I’m REALLY getting into my blog. So much so that, when I’m checking a customer’s site to see if the issue they’re having is our servers, or their code, that I’m tempted (not to the point that I’d do it, of course) to add my feedburner headline widget to their site, or just toss a link to my blog on there somewhere… both LOL and >.<
…
and now for some random rambling.
Since when has LOL transformed from “laughing out loud” to an adjective? It it just me? Hrm…
Warning! This post has little to nothing to do with WoW, so if you don’t give a rats’s ass about my life outside WoW… keep moving, buster! If you are a bit of a voyeur, or just really like me for some odd reason… or actually know me… well, read on past the break.
Today, I’m going to be talking about an acquaintance of mine. Not a friend. Not even a good friend. I have little to no association with him, Blizz, so there’s no reason to ban ME for HIS indiscretions.
Anyway; enough CYA-
This friend of mine has started *gasp* playing on a private server.
I know, I know- if he gets caught.. nay, WHEN he gets caught, he’s forfeiting his WoW account. But he doesn’t have the ability to pay for WoW right now, and he’s feeling the need to give the private servers a shot…
Well; here’s what I’ve learned from him so far-
(more…)
Well; this is annoying- the post-by-email feature isn’t working for me… I’ve sequicentuple-checked the settings, and it seems that Wp just doesn’t feel like checking the mail?
I’m able to check the box manually- the messages are arriving, and awaiting wordpress… but it doesn’t seem to want to actually post them.
Grr.

Update: AHA! I needed to set up a cron-job on my server to open the wp-mail.php page to actually have wordpress check the mail and post…
Of course, now I have to find out why I’m getting odd-looking posts…
Thanks, http://codex.wordpress.org/Blog_by_Email !
Well; I guess I’m not so much GONE, as updating the entire site after my move from Wordpress.com to my own server; so Yay!
Actually, it’s quite a bit of fun- I’m quite pleased that I got this SWEET hosting package as a freebie at my job… 15TB/month. Free. O.O
Aaaanyhoo; hey, google guy- this will be a busier, WoW-oriented site in a bit. (I’m signing up for Adsense- even have the Wordpress plugin installed and ready to go… just needs an Adsense account ID… ^_^)
Well, then… I’ll post more later, when I’m home from work- there’s actually quite a bit of news about 2.4 to link to/repost/talk about…
Ah; I’ve been out of WoW for a while, now… so yeah, updates are going to be… well, nil, ’till I’m back in WoW… probably mid-Feb at the earliest.
