But It’s a Good Thing
Life has gotten in the way of blogging for awhile. I will love you again soon, firsttube.com.
firsttube.com 10.1
I’ve updated firsttube.com to a new theme. It’s not significantly different from my old theme, but it’s a nice one that isn’t quite as hacked up as the last one. I’m in the process of deciding what to do with comments. I’m thinking I’d like to outsource them to disqus or Intense [...]
…And We’re Back!
firsttube.com is now live on our new server, proudly hosted by smallaxesolutions.com. Yes, I’m now running my own hosting (shameless plug: I can host you for cheap, including installation of WordPress) and I have migrated all of my domains over. That means my old host will be offline in a few [...]
New Look and Feel
If you’re not reading this via RSS, you may have noticed that I’ve completely changed the look and feel of firsttube.com. It’s something I wasn’t expecting to do regularly, but since I’ve moved to Wordpress, this will be my third theme. The first one lasted only a few days, to be fair, and I settled [...]
RSS Cloud
Behold! The firsttube.com RSS cloud generated by www.wordle.net (doesn’t work here without the www. Lame!). I got the idea from Kroc. This is based on a snapshot of my RSS feed the morning of 12/12/2008.
firsttube.com Upgraded To Wordpress 2.7
So far, one problem, two gripes. My problem is that I can’t seem to get posts with dots in the slug title to work right, even though I once solved this problem before. What’s worse is that it won’t fetch those posts anymore, which really sucks.
Onto my gripes. I can’t get inline replying/threading to work. [...]
A Bit of a Redesign
Yes, I’ve redesigned firsttube.com once again, but I’m only christening it 10.0.1. There are no major changes here other than the look and feel overhaul – no new features, no new tricks. This theme is a bit lighter, a smidgen easier on the eyes, a touch cleaner code-wise, a trifle easier to manipulate, and a [...]
My First Plugin
I recognize that I’ve been a little wordy about WordPress lately – no pun intended – but I’m afraid that it’s really interesting to me, and probably will be for the next few days. So, if you’re growing weary of the WordPress related posts, I’m sorry.
Today I took my first stab at [...]
To Those That Read firsttube.com via RSS
To those of you that read firsttube.com via RSS, I’m sorry about the recent difficulties. My conversion to Wordpress is almost entirely complete, including handling all old links, etc. I have a few legacy things left to fix. In the meantime, I realize that my feed has been screwy for the last [...]
Hacking Wordpress, Day Two
Thus far, my move to Wordpress has been an adventure. Here’s a few lessons learned.
First off, I was very excited about the features of Wordpress. I was really excited, most specifically, about the API, and about the rich text WYSIWYG of the backend. I’ve done a lot of work on Small Axe’s backend, but it’s [...]
