2010 Date Nerdiness

February 3, 2010

So my girlfriend and I were discussing some plans we’ve gotta make this year, and started talking about cool dates. You know, like 9/9/1999. The coolest one so far for this year would be 10/10/2010 (ten ten ten).

WordPress issues with Free Hosting

June 12, 2007

Just wanted to share a small discovery I made to those out there who may be wishing to setup their own WordPress blog site. I use GoDaddy hosting (which I’d like to say is excellent, as is their customer service) with Linux and PHP, and as you can see I use WordPress for my blog [...]
