Whole lotta work

I’m looking at a pretty busy day. Tomorrow is our Annual Meeting so after I finish my normal Monday routine of grabbing all the email that came in over the weekend to our generic account, dealing with database change requests, formatting and uploading the database updates to the website database, reviewing and testing the backups, checking the event logs, and attending Staff Meeting, I get to setup and test all the equipment that needs to go over to the hotel meeting rooms. Fun, fun!

At least I don’t have to actually go over there tomorrow. All the equipment will be working and will be with people I trust to handle it on their own, so I can stay behind and take advantage of 90% of the staff being out of the building! I can do so much database/network stuff without it interfering with day to day operations. It winds up being my spring cleaning day really. I’m looking forward to it!

I notice that the Forum system went silent after I removed myself from the THC picture by removing the forum. I half-expected that, but I was hoping the other topics would generate some posts. Oh well, it’s still there if you have something to say, and I’m still keeping an eye on things. I noticed this morning that their site was back up, finally! No sign of their own support forum yet though, so I’m still not making any permanent decisions about bringing back that forum on this site.

    Just to see whether they got better at dealing with my pet peeve, I downloaded and installed the 1.0 release of Firefox. The good news, is that rather than having to download and reinstall all the extensions again, now the browser disables all of the extensions. Then, at first startup it checks for updates to…

    Remember back last year when I did a comparison of all the available RSS aggregators at that time. Do you have any idea how many I would have to download and use to do that now? Talk about an exploding market of choices! Well, if you want a somewhat rough idea of some of the…

    Ed Bott loves it. I read about it and downloaded it. I opened it, I configured it to login to this blog. I saw some very interesting things. I saw some definite promise. Unfortunately, I also saw a tool that needs some more work before I can depend on it full time. Seems like they’ve…

  • Coming up

    It’s been a pretty busy work morning, between figuring out why the backup didn’t run last night (turned out to be my fault, you really gotta be careful when you change the scripts to account for a schedule change so that you remember to change them back later! Go figure!) and helping correct some database…

  • To judge or not to judge?

    You’ll of course remember a few days ago when Chris posted his Blogger’s Manifesto, right? Well now David Weinberger has parodied that into the Real Blogger’s Manifesto, which is pretty funny. Then, Mike Sanders kicked in with his question about the original manifesto; how Chris can routinely judge others while asking not to be judged…

  • SP2

    I bit the bullet and installed SP2 over lunch today, since I had to work through my lunch hour anyway. (Long story) Everything went well, and nothing really came across as “broken” in any major way. I had to re-enable the Messenger Service, since I do use “net send” across our internal network quite often….
