Yep, it’s a I-haven’t-posted-anything-new-cause-I’m-busy post. Work has been busier than usual and my Cicso class has required quite a bit of my attention. Hence my time for writing witty nonsense has been more limited than usual.
I’ll try to get something more interesting to read up shortly, but for now just know that I am still More >

So here it is: The inaugural episode of The SEB Podcast.
We cover a number of topics starting with Podcasts and moving on to a question from Decrepit Old Fool that we talk about a lot, but never actually answer. That’s followed by tangents galore that are related to DOF’s question by only the thinest of More >

SEB’s migration is done and everything should be working properly though it may take some time for the IP address change to migrate it’s way through the net. Of course if you’re reading this then it’s made its way through your DNS servers.
We’re also trying out a slightly different theme to see if it works More >

There’s been a few WP modules that weren’t working quite right and the documentation said they needed PHP5 which I thought we had on this server, but apparently we don’t. When I inquired I learned that SEB is still on one of EngineHosting’s PHP4 clusters, but they’d be happy to move me to one of More >

I’ve had a lot of requests for a post on how I moved my ExpressionEngine blogs over to WordPress so here it, finally, is. And, no, it doesn’t really take 64 steps.
The problem with moving from EE to WordPress is that while WP has an impressive selection of importing tools for various platforms built into More >

Most of the changes are to the back end of the sight, there’s a new built-in image editor and deleted posts and comments go into a trash bin before being deleted, so if you only ever see the front end you shouldn’t notice much difference.
But, as always, there’s a chance for weirdness so let me More >

Holy crap! I’ve been so busy with life that I totally forgot that I started this little experiment in egocentric rambling back on December 2nd, 2001. Not that I did a lot with it that month, but that’s when it officially started which means Stupid Evil Bastard is now, officially, 8 years old.

I’ve mentioned before that I’m currently using the Atahualpa theme for SEB because it’s the most configurable one I’ve found outside of Thesis. The latter of which costs money while the former does not, though they do accept donations. Athualpa has a few annoying quirks, but it is amazingly malleable so working with it is More >

So we’ve been running WordPress for over a week now and I thought I’d take a moment to give my impressions. There is much to like about WordPress and much to dislike, but it’s certainly much better than it was the last time I checked it out over five years ago.
First, here’s what I love More >

Hrm. I’d be happy for a generic alternate template setup for mobiles; I’ve no plans on buying an iPhone.
Now that the general method is in the wild, though, I wonder what other folks might cook up.

Maddox does a fine job showing why the iPhone sucks.
And yes Blackberry’s are way more useful and really help you get things done. Less eye candy, more work.

I have a BB Curve, and like it very much. But it’s not a convenient tool for blogging from.
