Website News – WordPress Update

I took an hour out last night and upgraded the site to WordPress 3.0. While outward appearance wise, nothing much should change, the admin interface is drastically different (and improved). If you’re running your own WordPress site and haven’t made the jump to 3.0 yet, don’t hesitate – it’s worth it.

Apology! News, and a New Code Viewer

First off, I want to apologize about the long hiatus away from the blog (looks like since August). The job took over a bit, plus I’ve been in the thick of developing a new commercial Blackberry game, doing some other projects, developing a raging Friday-night Oblivion addiction (such a good game), etc. I’ve been mentally keeping track of al the articles I want to write, so they’ll be coming soon.

Also, speaking of the new game – its coming along pretty nicely! More on that later.

I’ve also installed a better code viewer on the blog, and have converted (I believe) all the code segments over to use this. It’s a little easier to read, shows line numbers, and also has buttons for viewing the code in a popup window (plain text, easy for reading/copying), and printing. I think it will work out a lot better than the old one – I wasn’t a fan.

Additionally, I’ve created a “Blackberry” category, since there are multiple articles related to programming the Blackberry now available on the site.

Lastly, I hope to see all you North East gamers at this year’s Digital Overload LAN party. If you haven’t signed up, registration is still open for 12 more days. I’ve been going for a few years, and it’s always a ton of fun!

Until the 19th

Just a heads up, I’m wrapping up a large project at work and it’s uber crunch time, so I’ll be posting mainly on the weekends only until the 19th. Purchasing is ready to go for the PSX64, I just had to push it off a few days unfortunately – the button to purchase will be up by this weekend.

In the meantime, for you text adventure fans like myself, check out this absolutely awesome video featuring MC Frontalot , nerdcore rapper extraordinaire (And guest appearance by Steve Meretsky!). I figured it was most appropriate with all the Gruepal work going on. :)
