Mental Hygiene

misc bits

Thursday, June 30th, 2005

for those of you that have requested the pattern for the ipod cozy - i’m working on writing it up. i’ve never written a pattern before, at least not one for other people to try and follow, so i’m enlisting the help of my knitting sensei and the craftiest woman i know, ebeth. i’ll have something posted, and maybe a PDF to download in the next week or so.

and, probably some time after the server stops smoking and is cool to the touch again, i’ll have to write up something about how the post-it elvis mosaic has turned into a little meme, and just how much traffic this site is now getting as a result.

a sample: the average day in may, i had 64 visitors. two days ago, i had 107,201.

wtf?

you know, the whole advantage of running the latest high availability, super-stable stable and svelte operating system on this site is somewhat negated when the UPS it’s hooked to goes tits up.

sigh.

new server

Friday, May 6th, 2005

after some small strife and gnashing of teeth, the new and improved (?) mentalhygiene is now working.

it is:
running on the option8 linux server now instead of the mac server
powered by php, mysql and wordpress instead of lasso and filemaker
considerably easier to maintain
considerably easier to comment on posts
considerably faster

share and enjoy.

i’ll continue to make more adjustments to the templates and add back some updated content from the old site - all the old posts are already here, though unfortunately i haven’t figured out how to get my old comments system imported.
