Testing. Does my twitter link work? Did my wordpress update work?

Moved to a new server,  and had issues… I think we’re all good now

I have a wireless card on this server, and it’s been less than stellar. I have to log in often to get it to connect. So, I finally gave up and am now connecting it to my little network using a wire and have disabled the wireless card. I hope this is more reliable.
================
Well, it’s been about a week now, and I have had no stability problems (that I know of). Oh, well, guess the wireless idea wasn’t so good for a completely un-attended PC.

installed mobilepress for wordpress

http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/mobilepress/

and changed the mobile title to include mobile. I am not positive it’s that much better, but it did work. Using default theme

Hope it works!

YES, IT DID!  I found this link on the internet :

http://www.christinawarren.com/2008/08/08/blackberry-wordpress-client/

and she’s exactly right.  I did a search for bbmetablog instead of using her link, but it’s all the same… I am a little leary of storing my password in my cell phone, but I guess with all the other personal info on there, whats one more thing?

Well, since my last good idea for a domain name is now for sale somewhere, and I won’t tell you because I don’t want to promote “cyber squatting”, I finally came up with another name.

I heard a comedian once say that someone was “a real Albert Eisenhower” (ie, not too bright). So, I registered it today. For now, all it does is forward to here, and maybe that’s all I will ever do, but what the heck. Only $10.

Such a great link I didn’t want to loose it:

Note to self – check up on http://wpkg.org/ “WPKG is an automated software deployment, upgrade and removal program for Windows.”

Here is what I am using: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/twitter-tools

Basically, it seems to log into your twitter account http://www.twitter.com every 15 minutes, and pull down anything you have posted to there.

VERY simple to set up. Once you have it up and running, you just send a text message to twitter, and in a few minutes it shows up on your wordpress blog. For me, it was more of a “can I do it?”, not entirely sure how much I will be using it… But it is a nice option to have.

Ok – what is all this??? Well, I read about automatically posting to your website by email. And then I read about having the Akron Marathon automatically send emails when you cross their mats (which basically tell you where and when you are)… And I thought it seemed like a great combination. Every time I cross one of their timing mats, it’ll send an email which in turn will become a post in WordPress. Cool idea. So, here it is, my first test:

Update – We were sick this weekend, so we didn’t run the akron marathon. oh, well. This would have worked.

I am now using Zoundry Raven 1.0.375 I cannot find a licensing agreement, so, I guess in a court of law I would argue that I agreed to nothing…
