Spacedmonkey

Spacedmonkey the blog of randomness is changing. Along with a little bit of a face lift, lots more things have changes including it’s content and it’s focus. Firstly and most importantly, as of today, there will be no more posts about computer and technology on this site. Even the back posts about tech subjects have been removed. Many of these posts will be moved to a new blog, which should be up and running called The Computing Corner. The site has a new focus as a blog of interesting articles and writings.

More improvements include

1. Sexy new look
2. New section, titled works, with little writtings and other things I have done.
3. A dynamic archive page, list of all the posts and static pages
4. Improved load time
5. New tagging system that allows posts to be sorted by taggs
6. Easier to find hyperlinks within text
7. Rewritten About page, with lots more information
8. New Questions and Answers page, with lots of explanations of some of the Technical features of the site
9. More information about the site is included at the footer of each page
10. Improved submission to del.icio.us and Digg
11. Improved spam filtering on comments
12. The site now uses Wordpress 2.1
13. New background images from the header, including a really cool lego design
14. Refinements to the rss feed and search plug-in
15. New contact form, which a input box for the subject of your form.

In the last couple of days, this site has been going up and down like a yo-yo. This is because I transferred this site onto a new host called Media Temple (mt). It is an nice looking host, gives me lots of options, but I am going to pass on making any comment about it until I have really tried it out. While I was transferring to the new host, I thought I might as well upgrade the content management system, from Wordpress 2.03 to the band new 2.1. The new wordpress 2.1 is giving me lots of problems with some of the plug-ins. I needed to sort out the contact form, which is giving me lots of problems, even with the RSS feed. So instead of using the contact form, if you want to tell me about any of the problems you are having with the site, please just email me.

Just thought I would just tell people what is going on and ask people to tell me about problems you have with the site.

Thanks
