Is There Anybody There?
This will have to serve as a quick apology and small signal that the world has not come to an end.
There have been a lot of persistent and intermittent problems with the server and there have also been a lot of software releases and updates from various sources which have to be looked at and played with and then deleted and discarded, along with clumps of hair.
Some figures came through for the numbers of people who have downloaded the podcast MP3 thing, which were flatteringly decent. No, not millions, but respectably into the higher single figures. Ha!
There are also those people who keep track of things through the various feeds, so thank you all very much for continuing to look and listen.
Wuhudo is still the place where things are going to go eventually - pronounced “woo-who-do” - but there is still work to be done moving and changing software and waiting for a major new extension to the main CMS to come out.
So, there we are. A small update.
Is Auld Clunkie still stumbling and shuffling along the corridors of power at Number 10, does anyone know?
Seems like only yesterday he came to power, all grumpy and grinless and now he has to leave us, almost before anyone had noticed he had arrived.
Hardly worth waiting ten years for, was it?
Shameless Plug
As mentioned on an earlier post, a new site has been started and the intention is to use it much more for a community effort.
Having played around with different software, a start has been made and something in the way of firm decisions about how things are going to be done.
This place will continue, but have a look in the other place as well.
There are various ways of signing up and getting involved, so if you want to help by writing or commenting, please do.
I shall soon have written a couple of small script thingies for Google Gadgets and WordPress plugins, so there is a good chance that if they get used by other sites, there might actually be some visitors.
Here are a couple of links to kick things off:
Jack Straw: Let Criminals Roam Free
Intelligentsia Flee Dumb New Britain In Droves
Eurozone Sleaze Dwarfs Westminster’s
The Devil In The Detail
Change Your Ideas
As a personal note to my reader, this is just to say that in due course, things will change and there will be another place for “ideas”.
It will be bigger, better, faster, stronger. It might also be longer and harder.
There will be more information soon.
In the meantime, anyone who wants to think about writing articles or joining a rapid response team to react to news events or report on anyhting from gardening to celebrity, films, music or software and the internet, get your thinking caps on.
You can subscribe to comments on this notice and when things happen, you will know or use the contact form at the top of the page.
This blog is not finishing, but there is going to be a new start.
Thank you for taking the time to read it. Your comments are always appreciated.
Except for the spam ones which get thrown in the cyber-bin.
