Well this post you don’t really need to read. It is just a maintenance issue post. I am currently working on a new wordpress theme one I create myself, I like this current theme but there are just some things that I would like to add myself. I would also would like to extend the site meaning create a dedicated picture page and also a sub-domain, for friends, so they can manage and edit their own pages. (I have lots of room on my hosting plan.)

But first things first I am learning how to programming in PHP, I find it pretty easy well at least more user oriented then Java, which I had to learned in high school and took a class in college so I am OK with using it but not a fan at all. But PHP has so far been a lot more fun.

So those are the changes that I plan on making, and I have no set schedule for it so don’t expect anything right away.

Also I recently added the Creative Commons license to the right side bar right below the flickr.com sidebar. The Creative Commons license is a great idea and I suggest you look into if you plan on release stuff on the Internet. http://creativecommons.org/.

Also when I first started this site I had an idea to do a podcast to accompany my ramblings, I still plan on doing but I have to admit, it is a lot harder to produce a decent podcast then I had originally thought, so that is coming slowly as well.

I am also thinking about doing a forum because I have friends all over this country and I think that a forum would be a good idea to be able to keep up with people, especially for those of us who do not use a social network, and I know a few paranoid bastards such as myself. ( I should clarify, the people who own the site, own the information that is put on it, in the case of myspace it is Fox Broadcasting and as for Facebook it is still a private company I believe, but I don’t like risking on how long till they stay private. But I do use Flickr.com and yahoo owns that so don’t believe anything I say cause I am being a hypocrite. But hosting photos takes up alot of space, and why not let them do it. )
