Alrighty then! My little snafu with Google has now been addressed, my blog is back to serving itself up at idblog.org again, and one holiday is out of the way. Time to get back to blogging. Big yay! (Note: side benefit of porting to wordpress.com is that post URLs are actually preserved, so I don’t [...]
Back in action!

Yee ha … I’m back baby! In case you’d wondered, this wasn’t an intentional blogging lapse. My hosted WordPress installation was somehow compromised with some malware, and I had been blackballed by Google. Well, although I should be able to deal (given my background), I have better things to do than babysit software. So I [...]
Blank blog

Well, that was annoying! Not sure how long the home page was blank, but it’s restored now. Turns out I had a 0 byte index.htm — all I needed to do was rename that, then load an individual page, and voila, the index page is back. Yee-ha! The following were useful in diagnosing this problem: [...]

Got a blog? Then I hope you have Akismet. I’m not sure why I put off installing it here, but the 20 or so spam comments over the weekend were more than enough motivation. Granted, comment moderation is nice (especially when there is a batch mode), but frankly, I was tired of just getting the [...]

I’ve updated the sidebar to use Google to search IDblog rather than WordPress, since the latter doesn’t know anything about the old TypePad entries. Alas, Google doesn’t know anything about the really old archives, but this will have to do! Unfortunately, using Google means I don’t get to review search logs, which provided for interesting [...]
Wow…that was fast :)

You guys are good! Good thing I didn’t take weeks to get this reasonably passable. But I think IDblog is mostly in business now. I don’t really care that much for the design, but since I really stopped coding before CSS became the thing, I mostly only edit CSS, I don’t write it. Then again, [...]

January, 2010: Looking for IDblog? Well, it’s now Weight Maven. Search (at right) may still help you find posts from the archive. Note, posts before 2006 can be found here. December, 2009: Sorry ’bout this. I recently moved IDblog, and while many of the links are fine, some of the older links are busted. And [...]
