New Site Features
We've added the ability to email posts you enjoy to your friends and to easily print out posts for -uh- your scrap book.
Just use the handy new icons at the bottom of all posts.
Wireless Posting
The new SW allows us to post wirelessly from a PPC phone. Cool!
New Site SW
That's right! Since we are now officially 2 years back on the air — we decided to spiff up the place.
Project Magma was taking too long so we chose an alternative. We are now running on Word Press 2.0 which will allow browsing by topics and an improved search. Enjoy. :)
Comments are currently turned off to keep us from policing them. That may change once were fully settled in. It will take us a few days to get everything moved into the new DB so bare with us.
Server Move
All of our stuff has been moved to the new server… and so we held our breath and updated the DNS… and it worked! (mostly) In a few days the updated DNS info will move through the system and show the new site. Until then you may still see the old server.
Yes, I know, We’re Terrible
Posting has been sparse… but we’re fighting flus, moving servers, finishing basements, and studing for graduate school entrance exams… so sorry, we’ve been busy.
Operation: Move
Yes, we've been busy relocating the command center to a new undisclosed location… dang creditors found us again. But fear not, we'll be back on track soon.
Whew!
Whew! We’ve been spending so much time getting the new site ready, we haven’t posted much in a while… sorry. More good stuff to follow.
Archives Added
Due to popular demand, we have added an archive page to reduce the size of our main page. I had hoped to have either A) some new software that would automate the archiving of older articles or B) 100 pages of printable text on the main page before creating an archive page. Oh well the best laid plans and all (at least i hit 50 pages of text before the masses rose up against me). So enjoy the new slim trim Scott’Soapbox.

UPDATE: Our new site SW allows you to browse the archives by month and topic
1000 Page Views
Well 42 days after our launch we have arrived at 1000 page views. Not bad considering that the site, while live for that long, wasn’t actually unveiled until a few weeks ago. Apparently, it has also been a 1000 hours since the site when live… making our page view per hour -uhm- rather easy to calculate. Anyway, we hope to see our page view rate to continue to grow with our readership as we soar towards the next goal: 10,000 views.
These time frame numbers were computed with the help of the Calendar Calculator
We Back!
Wow, we’re finally back up after like two years being dark. So much to cover, that I’m not sure where to start… I will work on getting my reviews, rants, and raves pulled together from the far flung reaches of cyberspace where they landed without this place to keep them - at least somewhat - contained.
