Temporary broken stuff

ByMike McBride Reading Time: 1 minute

Yeah the front page of the blog might not work exactly the way it’s supposed to for a few days. Some of the older posts that still show on the front page don’t actually have individual pages, and the comments appear to be gone but they all work the way they’re supposed to on the archive pages, and eventually they’ll flip off the front page too.

I switched over to using Blogger’s own comment system, with word-verification turned on. It’s just an experiment for now. We’ll see how it goes. I’m also experimenting with some other things. I had hoped to be done with these experiments but it’s been a very busy week. Opening a new remote office does cause quite the increase in workload for all of the IS staff, even those of us who didn’t have to go and be directly involved in it.

    I got the first check from the CafePress store in the mail yesterday. It was for $26.30, which, when combined with the $14-15 I’ve got coming from the Amazon links at the end of the year will make a nice little donation to Prevent Child Abuse. Of note, yes I have decided to go ahead…

    On Scoble’s link blog I saw this story from Microsoft Monitor about Dell pushing PC’s with XP Home pre-installed to small businesses. They see the growing number of small businesses looking to save a buck by purchasing the Home version as a bad thing, and I would definitely have to agree. Last week, in the…

    Had my head down in research most of today, putting together pricing proposals for a new ISP. As many of you may remember, our current internet connection at work is donated bandwidth, basically piggy-backing off another company’s network. Some higher ups aren’t happy with the level of service we’ve been getting (it’s free, sometimes that…

    OK not really, it is Monday after all! But I figured I’d let you all in on the latest news surrounding this site. First, in old news the site for That Hosting Company is online again, with the simple message that there is a “Server Update in Progress, please check back in 60 minutes”. That…

    While there may be growth opportunities in blue-collar industries, you don’t suddenly become a plumber or electrician. It’s a long learning process that doesn’t scale well for that many unemployed people. This is reskilling at a massive, rapid scale, but we have to admit that whatever reskilling we’ve done in the past hasn’t been that good. 

    Do we expect what we’ve done before to ever match current and future needs? I don’t think it will, and that’s a problem that should be addressed. We need different, serious ideas, but I don’t see many of them out there.
