A year and a half ago I was playing around with blogging clients on Windows. That happened to be shortly before I bought my MacBook Pro and so I never really kept playing with them. I wasn’t blogging much and it dropped even more for much of the last year so I hadn’t even installedContinueContinue reading “Desktop blogging, pt. 2: Ecto vs MarsEdit”

I “get” Twitter
I never, ever thought I would utter those words. I am kind of a cranky old lady when it comes to “Web 2.0 social boogyboo blah blah” talk. I don’t have a Facebook account (and won’t get one no matter how many times I get spammed with requests) and I don’t use things like del.icio.us.ContinueContinue reading “I “get” Twitter”
Time to celebrate
What am I celebrating? Well my frickity taxes are done. This past year was extremely ooky in the tax department but I’ve got them done and two weeks early to boot. Whew! How am I celebrating? After all that, I am kicking back with one of my favorite beers, Duvel. I love Belgians and thisContinueContinue reading “Time to celebrate”
Spring has sprung!
Well it actually sprang a few days ago. I’ve updated my site header to a nice spring tree, although the dogwoods are not in bloom here yet and most likely won’t be for another month or so. You can see the state of my Dogwoods in pictures below. My cherries are starting to pop though!ContinueContinue reading “Spring has sprung!”
New theme
I’ve finally gotten some time to finish up my new theme for rocktreesky. Obviously it follows the naming of the site but it also just feels a lot more like home to me. I’m not the best at graphics but the new header is close enough to the picture in my mind that I’ll beContinueContinue reading “New theme”
DrupalCon Boston Redux
Wow, what a week. Lots of people, lots of ideas and even some good work done to boot. Unfortunately I ended up missing half of DrupalCon due to catching a flu bug late on Saturday night that kept me away from Boston until Tuesday and left me pretty much wiped out for the rest ofContinueContinue reading “DrupalCon Boston Redux”
Upgraded, moved and lookin’ plain
Drupal 6 was officially released on Wednesday, February 13 and I have now upgraded the site. At the same time I also moved my site off of shared hosting onto my new VPS with Slicehost. I had set the server up around the holidays and have been cleaning up other servery things before I finallyContinueContinue reading “Upgraded, moved and lookin’ plain”
Unraveling
I am currently in L.A. for work. Actually the work week just ended and I am now free to roam. Luckily in this instance L.A. does not mean the crazy city that I normally associate with it, but rather we were doing workshops at a seaside hotel in Redondo Beach. During the week the oceanContinueContinue reading “Unraveling”
I just signed up for a lot of work
It has been a busy week for me in a lot of ways, but one of the most exciting reasons was due to the first Drupal Association elections. Out of 57 applicants*, 11 were chosen to be added to the General Assembly as Permanent Members (PM). I am deeply honored to be amongst those 11.ContinueContinue reading “I just signed up for a lot of work”
The Drupal Dojo needs you! (Yes you!)
Just over a year ago Josh Koenig started up a little group on groups.drupal.org called the Drupal Dojo. He thought mentoring a few folks in the Drupal way would be a good way to pay back some karma. Well that little group is now up to 1073 subscribers and has its own website at http://drupaldojo.com.ContinueContinue reading “The Drupal Dojo needs you! (Yes you!)”
