Gone, But Back Again
Oh well, things change. Not always because we want them to. In this case my old webhosting company, Detail Hosting, went south with no warning at all.
Thanks to my Domain Registar, GoDaddy.com, I have things back up on one of their free hosts. That is good because I still have not for sure gotten payments to Detail Hosting stopped. You have to love PayPal (That is darkest sarcasm, if you didn’t figure that out for yourself). While I was able to transfer graywolfphoto.com with out a problem, for some reason they do not give you access to Wordpress. Subject To Change was done on Wordpress, so I can not just transfer it to this new host. I did not have STC backed up on my home system anyway. I am writing this in LifeType which I know almost nothing about, yet. I do plan on recreating some of the more interesting posts from my notes, but there is no way I am going to bother with the ones that I do not feel have a lasting interest.
My target date for getting things back to operational was the First of September, so I did not do too bad.
So, you ask, anything new in the last month? A couple of minor things. I now have a hardware RAID setup on the workstation. Just the three 500gb SATA drives I already had, but now on a Dell Perc 5/i card I got from eBay for a very reasonable price. I am typing this on a NOS IBM Model-M Buckling Spring Keyboard, also gotten from an eBay seller. It has a great feel that helps my typing accuracy, and a loudish click clack sound that I could personally do without.
That is about it for now.
I do hope you found your way back to here,
Tom
