It’s still around. Although you would never know it. The buzz is gone. A few years back LibertyNet was something special. Now it’s not. What happened?
It’s directory of websites still is one of the best however.
Ray Ozzie posts a draft of his company’s weblog policies
Check it out here. I wonder how long it’s going to take for other companies to do similar?
Kinda weird but really cool
It’s a strange delight to hear yourself mentioned by someone in a different country, using a tool you’ve helped to build.

Temporary URL until DNS refreshes
Ahh the new home.
I couldn’t take the old host’s speed any longer, and I’ve heard good things about Kattare. So here I am (along with a set of other sites I manage).
A big thank you to Scott for the help 🙂. You saved the day.
I went the export/import route. If this were a non-personal site, or one which I knew users were linking to individual posts (I know they’re not here except for the hoax I accidently published last month), I would have went with your MySQL suggestion. In anycase, my static content hasn’t link-rotted 🙂
Any MovableType gurus can help me?
Please check out my previous post.
Almost there… need some help
At my new host I’m facing a variation of the infamous “I’ve moved my site and I can’t login” error. I’ve posted it to the support forum last night, but in the interest if expediency, let me ask you here.
So:
1. I’ve copied my MT installation to the new host.
2. I’ve editted mt.cfg to reflect the correct paths.
3. I believe I have the correct permissions.
4. I’ve ran mt-check.cgi and have gotten positive results.
5. I’ve been able to start mt.cgi without an error.
Then I get “Invalid login” error when attempting to sign in.
6. I’ve followed the instructions in the docs titled, “I changed hosts, and now I can’t log in to Movable Type.”
Here go the results:
1. > db_upgrade *.db *.idx
db_upgrade: author.db: DB->upgrade only supported on native byte-order systems
db_upgrade: DB->upgrade: author.db: Invalid argument
2. > db_dump author.db
db_dump: author.db: btree version 6 requires a version upgrade
db_dump: open: author.db: DB_OLDVERSION: Database requires a version upgrade
3. > db_dump185 author.db
db_dump185: Command not found.
What now? Anybody here can lend a hand?
Changing web hosts
I’ve been busy moving my other sites to a new web hosting provider. The last being this site. It is going to move shortly so don’t expect many updates the next couple of days. We shall see.
Played pool and didn’t smoke
Yea, it doesn’t sound like to big a deal for you non-smokers. But I got thru last night, a bar night with co-workers, without lighting up. I played like shit (well there is nothing new there…) but got thru without a smoke.
Opie and Anthony canceled
WNEW-FM has issued the following press release:
Based on recent events, The Opie and Anthony Show has been cancelled, and will be replaced by other programming beginning tomorrow.
Westwood One, Opie and Anthony’s syndicator has also cancelled the program. The program aired on 18 stations across the country.
Also on Thursday, the top U.S. communications regulator ordered an investigation into complaints that the shock jocks allegedly broadcast a live, eyewitness account of a couple having sex in St. Patrick’s Cathedral. This report lead to today’s cancellation.
