Well hello again

There has been a really bad moment where my database instance went corrupted. I lost some recent data, particularly comments in this blog. I tried all ways to fix the issue but can’t. The only way would be to input all the missing comments manually which would be quite a challenge.

I have moved to a better server. This time, I’m at Rackspace Cloud. It’s a carefully made decision and I hope this website will serve you better in time to come.

What happen to me

The past year, I’ve been really busy with school and work. I barely have the mood to update the blog. When I am free I spend most of my time in front of the computer sometimes just trying to cheer myself up. And my slow host also killed my interest in blogging.

But today I had enough and migrated. A new server and with lots of little things to fix. My age old theme, the 200+ unanswered emails. I’m sorry. I won’t answer back the emails but I promise to answer them from now on.

Things are getting better and I have this bit of positivity about life again.

As for beconfused, I guess that would convert to more posts and better content.

WordPress 2.7.1 released!

I love the new automatic upgrade feature, it’s updates WordPress so easily.

2.7.1, the first 2.7 maintenance release, is now available. 2.7.1 fixes 68 tickets. You can automatically upgrade from 2.7 to 2.7.1 via the Tools->Upgrade menu, or you can download the package and upgrade manually.

Consult the list of fixed tickets and the full set of changes between 2.7 and 2.7.1 for details. (Source: WordPress)

It’s time for an upgrade perhaps?

Posts per page set to 7

Title says it all. I like the number 7. So posts per page is changed to 7.

I happen to think that 7 is the perfect number for viewing blog entries. Not too much, not too little. I can’t stand it when some blogs have like 20 posts per page. That said, I actually prefer RSS feeds to offer 20.

Anyway, in case you’re wondering why I am posting so much, I am trying to push a certain post lower.
