Sure, that could be it. Whatever it was that made them think of it, the technology is pretty cool so check it out.

Word Press Update and Other Stuff

Well, I’m going to attempt to update Word Press tonight so if this blog goes away in the near future you’ll know why. Hopefully, all will go well and there will be no glitches whatsoever. But if history has shown me anything, its that that just doesn’t usually happen. Oh well, I guess we’ll find out soon.

Also, as some of you may know I recently switched hosting providers in an effort to consolidate my sites and save a few bucks. This move has not been without its minor issues but for the most part has been pretty smooth. Recently, however, it seems like I have been experiencing more and more little glitches and minutes or longer of downtime relatively frequently. I’m not worried yet but I am still, in the back of my mind, looking for an even better solution.

Maybe I just need to get my own server and co-locate it somewhere? Or, move back to my original host and just keep things the way they are? I don’t know but if you happen to know any really good web hosts . . .
