Sleepy Squared

I wasn't expecting to spend so much time setting up a new Web site (which hasn't gone live yet). Once the template is in place, everything else is cake. Jake and I were mulling over our options this afternoon. We were lamenting the fact that we couldn't add some type of “Ratings” feature to this yet-to-launch resource. He brought up my blogging tool, Movable Type. Duh. Why didn't I think of that? Worked like a charm. Almost. I may not have been using the software correctly, but it kept clobbering templates when I'd link to direct files. It's difficult to explain exactly what happened. Suffice it to say, I lost two hours of productivity tonight. Live and learn. Now, I'm a little behind, but quite determined to get this out before I head to bed. I'm nutty that way. I'm also very tired.

Using GoToAssist is the easiest way to view and control another person's computer online. Use it to provide instant technical support to family, friends and customers. Start a session with just one click, and instantly connect with the other party.

Sheesh you keeping secrets AGAIN? what sup with that? :)

Ah I see you suffer from the same affliction I have… tenacity. I hate to start something and leave it unaccomplished for something as trivial as sleep…. Can't wait to move my site to a host that will allow me to use MT 2.0. Any chance for a review soon, Chris?

MT all the way.. muhahah
:-)

Wow, what a cool site. Glad to be watching such poetry in motion. Looking forward to seeing all of you in Iowa in August. See you then.
Peace Out,

I have a rule that works well for me and I only break it occasionally. I stop all computer work, tweaking, or anything else technical after midnight. I tend to start missing little things and ultimately have to redo stuff the next day.

Aw, you haven't lived until you start rebuilding a RAID 1+0 array at two in the morning. Obviously it depends on the context. I don't imagine claiming sleep over getting a mail server for a geographically diverse company back online would be too good for the old job prospects.

What Do You Think?
