Hello out there.. is this thing on? (tap tap)
This place has been pretty dead except for comments and comment spam. Stupid fart knocker spammers. I spent alot of time deleting and cleaning up the comment system and even shutting it off until Matt from WordPress created this plugin: Akismet. I stuck that puppy in and it took most all the work out of managing the comments.
I even tried a new theme for awhile, but since most of my friends use RSS readers, that was rather pointless. It was mostly to see how the themes actually installed (I hadn’t done one before.)
Next up, WordPress 2.0 was released. The new features are very nice along with a great update to the admin panels. I won’t bore you with all the details, but it’s definitely worth the upgrade time and effort (it’s free 
).
I’ve installed it and it even comes with the Akismet plugin already build it. You just have to activate it. So for now, all is well. (Crossing fingers and one eye for luck.) I may even update the theme again.
