It’s baaaack

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

Remember back over a month ago when we were having telephone issues, and after going through our equipment vendor and the telephone company for days, back and forth, they finally declared it fixed at about 8PM on a Friday night? (After calling me at midnight the night before to tell me that they think they found the problem and would be out to fix it the next day.) Well guess what isn’t working again?

    Looks like, finally, blogrolling’s service is back to normal. If you’ve been following along since Friday you know that not only was it not working very well in numerous ways, but there were no updates. (Hence the reason I said nothing about it here.

    I’m tired of writing memos. I think I’m currently constructing my 8th memo since Thursday, covering everything from staff interview notes about ethics, to email attachment policy, to requests for funds.

    Regular readers probably noticed about a week’s worth of silence around here. It started early last week when Angela tried to post something to her blog and had trouble getting it published to her site. Thinking it was probably just a temporary Blogger problem, she went about her life assuming it’d take care of itself…

  • Thanks

    ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

    Just wanted to give a thank you to some people, whoever they are. 🙂 Since we’re nearing the end of the quarter, I decided to check out what, if anything, was going on with commissions from either the One Man IT Department store at CafePress and the Amazon affiliate links. It seems that while no…
