I hate when that happens

Remember when I was telling you about Jevon running his blog with Nucleus? It got me thinking, the one reason I’ve stayed with Blogger as opposed to Movable Type was that I didn’t want to have to go deal with my hosting company to get the proper Perl setup. (It’s a hassle I don’t have with Blogger, so there’s my choice! *L*) Well I looked at this Nucleus thing and saw that it used PHP and wouldn’t require any perl modules for me to setup. So I was seriously thinking about trying it out, until I discovered that Ready Hosting does not now, and does not plan to, support mySQL.

I guess I now officially have something to complain about with ReadyHosting! And I guess we stay on Blogger for the time being.

    I am impressed. Andy managed to find the answer on Google. I wasn’t sure you’d be able to find the pronunciation and the history of the word Seanchai on there, but then I should know better than to ever doubt Google, eh? For the record the Seanchai were traditional Irish storytellers, and it’s pronounced “shawn-a-key”….
