The Life and Times of Joel Wollborg

The New Blog

2006-10-17T16:18:00.000-07:00

So I am really happy with this whole using blogger.com to post my stuff, but it has kind of screwed up the rest of my site - like when you click on any page other than the main one. So I am at a cross roads, do I just stick with the site the way it is (after all, we all know I will get bored of posting in about a month) or do I redesign the whole thing.... Since I like betting I decided I will toss out some lines.

Joel doesn't do anything +400
Joel redesigns the website -350

Feel free to email me your wager - oh and if you don't know what the +400 or the -350 are then you should learn.

What's that you say? You want to see an example of how I can post from my cell phone? Well there you are. The problems are that it is a huge pain in the ass to type all of this... also blogger puts all that junk under my text - though I guess I can edit the posts later on the PC to remove it. Either way this is pretty cool.

New Blog!

Well, technically it isn't a "new" blog I suppose, but I have given up trying to do this on my own with movabletype and I am going to post the main blog part of my page on blogger.com from now on. I wish I was still "cool" enough to figure out how to get scripts and stuff setup on my new hosting company, but I have basically forgotten everything I used to know about computers. Oh well, one of the cool things I get from moving to blogger is I can post from my cell phone now. It is as simple as sending a txt or picture message to their site and BAMN, it puts it right up on my blog. Pretty sweet, eh?

In addition to getting the blog back up I may also work on a redesign to the site. I have been considering this for a while, but I've been too busy - now that Sam is back in classes and the first snow flakes came down (October friggin 12th!) I might find myself with a little more free time than I had before.
