Feedburner Broken API
For a few weeks Feedburner's API has been broke. If I try to pull the statistics of the title and URL of my posts it comes back "NO TITLE." The statistics package I use, mint, has a Feedburner pepper...

Domain Switching
I'm considering moving my blog over to pieceofshep.com. This was where my blog was originally set up long ago (maybe four years ago). The domain fits better with my blog's title obviously. The only th...
PhoenixBlue for Habari
Last night and today, with the help of the good folks in the Habari community, I ported the PhoenixBlue theme that I released for WordPress over to Habari. You can check the theme out in action over a...
Back...for now
I'm back to using WordPress for now. This is nothing against Habari. I'm just not ready for it. I spent several hours for a few days trying to get things to work the way I wanted them to. The Habari c...
I might be moving this weekend
Dmondark in #habari did me a huge favor and ported the wordpress audio player plugin. That was essentially my last major hurdle I had to overcome in order to switch to Habari. I already have an instal...
Partial Post Feeds
I really hate websites that only offer a part of their post in their feed. I know why they do this. They do this so you have to visit their site in order to read the rest of the story. The more visito...
Strange things are afoot at the Circle-K
For the past couple weeks my traffic has been down drastically. I can't figure out why. Some days it's down to a third of what it once was. Other people have also mentioned how their traffic seemed to...
Moving to the Desktop
There is something I don't quite understand. Maybe someone can explain it to me. A few months ago Google gave IMAP support to Gmail. Everyone was happy to have this sought-after feature enabled finall...
Stay Away from Network Solutions
Thankfully I've never used Network Solutions. Before I started doing a lot of website work I just had one domain, this one. I registered it with Namezero way back in high school, I think. After becomi...
Going on a Safari
More and more I find myself browsing the net using Safari. I used to loathe Safari, and on Windows I still do, but it's starting to grow on me a bit on the MacBook. On several Windows systems I found...
Testing a New Design
I'm testing a new design here. Things can (and probably will) break off and on today. I really like this design and hope I can get it to do everything I want it to do.
So Long MySpace
I've had a MySpace page for a long time now. I've had it before MySpace became the huge thing it is now. I'm not quite sure why I have it. I never use it. The only people I really have friended on the...
Selling Some Domains
I've listed some domains on the Domain Name Aftermarket website. I'm selling: 1. Workingfora.com 2. Politicaljackass.com 3. Toppoliticalblogs.com 4. Myblogisbetterthanyours.com 5. Midwestmixtapes.com...
I Need a New Host
For reasons I won't discuss here I am searching for a new host. I don't need crazy amount of space and/or bandwidth that many budget hosts oversell. I would like around 10gb space and 25-50 gb of band...
Is a Switch Coming?
I installed Movable Type 4 on another site of mine and imported all the WordPress posts from this blog. I'm kind of tired of WordPress and the direction it's going (It seems WordPress (as in .org) has...
New Theme
So for the past couple weeks I've been searching for a new theme. You might have stopped by while I was testing some out. I had maybe 3 different themes up over the past few weeks but kept going back...
Blogitforward.com
I no longer own Blogitforward.com. I was contacted this week about selling the domain. I was offered a fair price, and I sold. If you're curious as to who bought it, you can do a simple whois search o...
This is Why I'm Hot
No, not because I'm a rapper named Mims, but because I'd changed my site to this sexy new theme. The front page is still basic format as the changes I made a few days ago, just using a new theme. (and...
The Changes
So, you might have noticed some changes in the way the site is laid out. Or maybe you didn't, who knows? Anyway, to tell you a bit about what's going on, I have moved my blog from the sub-directory of...
Some Changes and No Doubt Breakage
I'm making some changes on the site so there might possibly be some things that are broke. I need to resolve some redirect issues from the old setup as well as continue to add content. If you subscrib...
