Morning all; a brief update on what I’m doing. I know it’s been a bit quiet round here lately. I’ve been busy with work, but mostly I haven’t been blogging as much because I’ve been having a lot of fun making YouTube videos. If you’re interested, do take a look at youtube.com/DLandonCole; you might like [...]

If you’re interested in tuning in, I will be doing a BlogTV show starting at 1800BST today, 3rd April at blogtv.com/people/dlandoncole. xD.

At 2144 on Friday, March 11th, 2005 – exactly five years ago – I published my first blog post. xD.

In the small hours of Friday morning, vps.net, the people who host my servers, suffered a quite spectacular DDOS attack. There are, briefly, two things I’d like to day: firstly, if you’ve emailed me, please email me again as I may have missed your message. Secondly, VPS.net are a really good hosting company and I’m [...]

After Alice graduating and us being married, we have moved from the Smoke. Alice and I have, barring some curtains that are going up tomorrow, moved into our new place. Broadband is being turned on by the 7th, which will bring more blogging. I still don’t understand why it takes two weeks to turn the [...]

I’ve finally worked out how to make mod_rewrite work. URLs for this blog will now be something like davecole.org/blog//year/month/date/title rather than davecole.org/blog/?p=1234. Using the latter style will still take you to the right post, though. I moved servers recently (VPS.net are rather good, IMHO) and it took me a while to work out how to [...]

I’ve moved servers and, bizarrely, the permalink structure has broken. I did have it as year/date/day/title but that doesn’t work, so I’ve had to change it to simply post number. Anybody have any ideas why that might have happened? xD.

I am in the process of moving servers and so service may be slightly intermittent. If anyone notices anything odd going on, let me know! xD.

A couple of people – one in real life and one here – have said that they find the regular Twitter updates annoying. Initially, I’m going to set it to post a Twitter update once a week and, if people still don’t like it, I’ll remove it and have it as an RSS. How does [...]
