Blog Software

Last week I came home from photographing a Motor City Mechanic hockey game to find that my web hosting company had suspended my account, I called the tech support number at 2:30 in the morning to find out why and it turns out that the version of movable type software I was using was very very open to attacks, and had been under going attacks all night slowing down the server that my site was hosted on.
The turned it back on but said that I had to either 1, upgrade the software to the latest version, 2- delete it, or 3- have my site suspended for good.
So for the time being I moved the software on the site to disable it till I could get around to upgrading it.
So Monday I installed the upgrade and it wouldn't work for me, so I got with my buddy Avi at the Michigan Apple Meeting and we figured out was wrong and fixed it. (Thanks Avi!)
So now that it is all back up and running, I will try to make a few more post.
