OpenID Plugin Reactivated

18-Mar-09

Thanks to some quick feedback and troubleshooting from the OpenID WP plugin developer I’ve got things functioning again.  It seems we turned up a few issues that will still need addressing (primarily regarding my use of Lighttpd vs the more standard Apache), but we have things functional again.
Big thanks to Will for his help.  [...]

Announcing the “Everything but Ubuntu” Blog: blog.zelut.org

08-Mar-09

Based on much of the feedback in regards to my desire to blog about more than just Ubuntu I’d like to announce a secondary blog, blog.zelut.org.  I’ve been using this site casually for the past few months, just for little things here and there, but I would like to try and focus now on [...]

Server Migration Complete

22-Feb-09

Well it appears that the server migration is complete, and so far I am very happy with the results.  First of all, I don’t think there was much downtime, if any at all.  The only oddity that I encountered was regarding DNS propogation, and there is only so much you can do about that.  Here [...]

Quick Announcement

25-Feb-08

I have a few minutes this evening after a full day at the hospital.  My first child, a little girl, was born last nite.  Everything went well and we’ve been getting used to the new addition in the hospital today.  We’ll be back home tomorrow sometime, and I’m sure life will be a lot different.

Database Update

11-Jan-08

I’ve just done an update of the database for this blog.  I did an export and a giant find/replace for some formatting tags I wanted updated.  If you notice anything really odd about the site, pages not displaying, content screwed up, etc please let me know.
It appears all is well.. so far.
What I did was [...]

Server Transition & Thanks

05-Jan-08

I spent yesterday evening putting the final touches on my server transition. The DNS update should be making its way through the ever clogging interweb tubes as you read this. Hopefully by Monday it’ll have made its way to the far corners of the interweb.
I do want to thank everyone that offered services [...]

Blog Downtime & Host Transfer

03-Jan-08

As many of you have noticed the site has been down for the majority of the day.  I really don’t have any idea why other than because I’m over my “PHP quota”, which I don’t know why would be the case.
I’m honestly pretty fed up with my hosting provider at this point.  I’m very actively [...]

Heading Out to the Ubuntu Developer Summit

27-Oct-07

I’m about to head to bed for the nite.  First thing in the morning I’m getting on a plane and heading out to the Ubuntu Developer Summit in Boston.  I’m excited to be spending a week planning Ubuntu’s next release, 8.04 “Hardy Heron”.  I feel very privileged to be invited and hope to help get [...]

AptURL : Web Based Package Installation

23-Oct-07

Some of you may have seen some recent posts around the Ubuntu Planet about the new AptURL project that is default in Ubuntu 7.10 “Gutsy”. I wanted to make a few comments about it myself after tinkering with it a little. I think the project and idea is pretty cool and I hope [...]

Happy Birthday To Me

13-Oct-07

I thought of writing some witty script that would tell you I’ve become a year older, but I thought I’d just do it in english. Yes, today I turn twenty-eight years old.. wow.
Also, and even better news, is today is also my two-year wedding anniversary. Best two years ever and even better to [...]
