Webby Aquatics has been refurbished with a brand new version of WordPress, the back-end system that powers my blog and is now fully operational again with Tag Support. Also, there is a new header for those that don’t use RSS/XML/ATOM feeds.
Archive for the 'Site Update' Category
Well, I am still sorting things out around the site. I made the upgrade to Word Press 2.1 for stability reasons along with the upgrade to the new K2 Theme. After upgrading, I was having some server issues and compatibility issues with some of my plug-ins used in Word Press so I am finally getting all those fixed and updated.
With the new upgrade now in place, you as the reader should see some improvements in searches and browsing through older posts. The search is now a live search and will display your results instantly and thanks to some AJAX code in K2, my archives are also live updating and can be sorted and browed several different ways. Let me know what you think.
With the departure of the Christmas/Holiday season, my main header was in need of a change. For now, since I am in a beach mood after visiting Eckerd and thinking about California, I have picked a nice picture of a sunset from a LA County Lifeguard tower that I have had for a while. Enjoy.
It seems like forever sine I did an actual site update but I have. I am working on adding and changing out some of the photos on my photos page and since the Holiday decorations are up at work, I figured why not get in the mood here as well so I updated my header. Also, there is a mobile edition available now. Point your PDA. BlackBerry or Mobile Phone to http://www.webbyaquatics.com/wp-mobile.php to access the content.
After talking with Charlie about setting up blogs, I figured I would take a look back at my own and post some itnersting bits of data for you.
- April 19, 2002 - Blog is started using Blogger
- June 3, 2003 - I made the move from a third-party hosted system to the self-hosted and maintained MovableType
- February 9, 2005 - After getting fed up with comment spam and constant rebuilding of files and pages, I made the move to WordPress
Over the last several years, I have tried to move Webby Aquatics from being a website based on selling my services as a Red Cross instructor to a personal site that allows others an insight in to who I am and what it is I am all about. To date, there are currently 576 posts and 59 comments, contained within 15 categories. These entries have ranged from simple shout-outs for friends birthdays to milestones such as new jobs (1, 2), graduation, technology, and well, just plain randomness and of course, pixie dust.
So sit back, relax, and let the posts continue. And for my readers, feel free to get invovled and post comments to any entry you read. My next goal is to get my readers more involved.
I have posted some new photos to my Photos page from my birthday.
