Weblog engine, wordpress has been update to the latest stable version. Please be patient with me while I change things around to my liking.

Hello people it’s been a while since we talked. The main reason for that is because I want to update this site both theme based and engine based. So lets talk about both of the separate.

Theme

The theme grew old on me, so I would like to change it. The only problem is that I don’t know what I want the new one to look like, so if you have any ideas let me know.

Engine

Wordpress has been good to me all this years and I don’t think I will change it but 60% of the plugins I use do not work and 10% of them have gone off production so they are no longer available.

So I need to decide:

1. Leave the site as is and just write more.
2. Update the theme only.
3. Update both theme and engine with worpdress and making everything work (possible fixing the plugins that need to be fixed).
4. Change engine and theme.

Your opinions are welcome.

Hello everybody, as you can see from the above command there are a lot of pending things in my life.

Most of you will be wondering what the hell is going on. Well you would be right I am kind of lost, and I haven’t update this weblog for a very very long time. Sometimes it seams like years, but it’s only been months (160 days to be exact…) ;). I do try to check the comments and reply to them as often as I can.

Now here are some updates.

This blog

The blog engine has been update to the latest version. There are a few bugs but mostly with the administrative plugins and do not infect the entries.

The plugins

I am in the process of reviewing and rewriting the plugins image2post and current-mood. So now it’s the time to get those comments and improvement requests coming in. Also it would be great if you could report any bugs.

Life

Well there are a lot of things going on right. Most of them are work related. Unfortunately I can not disclose any information so stay tuned and I will give updates as soon as I can.

I know it looks like I am neglecting this weblog. That is not the case, I keep telling my self.

After reading Pauls’ Stamatiou article on How to make a Firefox search plugin for a wordpress site, I’ve decided to make one for this site. So here you go. The link bellow should install it for you. If it doesn’t work let me know and I will try and fix it. Or you can use the Mycroft Mozdev.org Search Page.

This site works with search plugins

I just wanted to say that I have submitted my weblog into the 9rules network. I think it will help me with my writing.

In addition I am working on a new theme for this site, hopping that this time it will stick. The new theme will be more web 2.0 but I will try to keep it simple. I still haven’t decided if I am going to add ajax functionality to it. What do you think?

It’s still in draft mode and I am working with a pencil and a paper so be patient.

I would like to apologize mostly yo myself and to all of you for the luck of updates here. It’s not that I don’t have things to say, but it’s that I don’t have time to say them. I’ve been very busy.

So I will make a promise to myself and to all of you. I promise that I will work on the plugins and make both of them wp2.1 compatible, if you have any bugs or features please email me and I will see what I can do. The second promise is that I will work on a new design for this website and maybe release this one as a K2 style. I am changing the design because I feel the time for a change has come, for any suggestions please email me or comment here.

That’s all for now, and I will try to post more. Hopefully the new design will help.
