I am reviewing the situation

6 January 2010

re moving the blog. It’s huge and it’s going to take some time. Eventually it’ll happen but ignore the last post; it will not happen this week.
I’m going to take the mirror site offline till I get all the kinks worked out.
In the meantime, enjoy this one, the one and only original Blogworld.
Weirdness happened with [...]

New (academic) year, new look

20 August 2009

Well, actually, it’s the same old look, more or less — the adaptation of Brian Gardner’s Blue Zinfandel Wordpress theme that I made several years ago now, shortly after I switched over to Wordpress.
(Note to non-blogging — and even non-Wordpress readers, skip this post if you like; this is going to get vaguely technical and [...]

Update about Blog Problems

19 July 2009

If you’ve tried to access Blogworld over the last day or two you’ll have noticed that there were some issues that were affecting connectivity. Most of them have been sorted out so far, but a few minor ones remain. I’m about to take the blog offline for an hour or so to see whether I [...]

Warning: Going to Upgrade Again

20 July 2008

Now.
WordPress 2.6 is not a major upgrade like 2.5, but it’s an upgrade anyway.  And upgrading runs risks.
Not that this has been the most active blog in the recent past (I have a lot to say but no real liberty of saying it) but people do stop by every now and then.
I wish to warn [...]

On Blogs, Blogging, and Various Related Tribulations

31 May 2008

So the first thing I want to say is I own/manage three main blogs (there are others, but I’m too ashamed to draw attention to them because they’re sadly neglected):
Blogworld
Scavella’s Blogsphere
Ringplay.com (currently down for maintenance)
It’s hard.
It’s hard because (a) I don’t really have the time to do any of them justice, especially as I’ve been [...]

Too much pinkery?

5 April 2008

For those of you who might be thinking that I have waaay too much time on my hands, know this: I’ve been on vacation for the past two weeks. The public service has the policy of being able to bank your vacation — you get a certain number of weeks per year, and [...]

Downtime

3 April 2008

For those of you who came to this blog over the last night or so, you will have noticed that you couldn’t get to it — the comment that came up was “ERROR CONNECTING TO DATABASE“. It was a problem that affected all the nicobethel.net blogs.
Our service provider is having issues.
I am working on putting [...]

Upgrading!

31 March 2008

I’m upgrading to WordPress 2.5 today. If this blog goes down, that’s what’s happening.I hope the upgrade will fix the issues we have had with commenting lately (by the way, it happened to me!) We shall see.
Wish me luck!
=====
By the way, the theme change is due to the upgrade — the theme I’m [...]

More Bloggery

30 March 2008

Well.  Yesterday the update of Wordpress came out, and I clean-installed it onto several test blogs to see how it works.  It works!  I’m also in the process of setting up a new space for this blog, which, as I’ve already promised, will be migrating to its own special server over the course of the next few [...]
