new wordpress.
Posted by detour1999 | Filed under nerdly
I updated to the newest version of wordpress now that I have a relatively steady internet connection, and I have been mesmerized by the changes. Seriously, I have just been playing around in the admin panel for about 20 mintues just checking out all the new features.
I must say, I am incredibly impressed. This is an amazing administrative section that really allows me as a user to have less of a barrier to blogging.
Hopefully, that means that I will do it more…
Also, I now realize that I had some drafts saved from a while back. Ha! Who knew? I’ll try to finish up those and post them asap.
being without internet

is a pain in the ass.
I am on vacation for the first time in ages, and for the first time in longer than I can remember I have been mostly without internet.
So, I had to do something about that.
Using this sweet app, these directions and FoxyProxy I am now writing this on my laptop on the blazingly fast 3g connection of my G1 (~400K down/~150K up)
(in reality, all internet feels slow to me now that I am used to the 100MB fiber @ work. However, I still use the shared 56k line at my parents when I’m there, and I’m happy to know that I’m significantly faster than that…)
so, happy xmas to me, I’ll be able to code and waste time on the internet on the train this weekend.
