Blog Maintenance = Complete!

We’re back in business with a new look and feel to the site. After testing about 15 themes, and not finding what I wanted, I decided to take the closest one and make some changes to it to fit my vision. I’m aiming for a clean, fast design with minimal distractions and easy navigation.

I’m going to continue to tweak things over the next couple of weeks (colors, fonts, etc.) but the overall design will remain the same (until I get the bug to change again).

Hope you like the new look & I welcome any feedback you have about it!

4-Day Weekend!

Been a while since I posted on my blog. Been SUPER busy at work and just have not had a lot to say! Finally taking a day off tomorrow & taking advantage of a 4-day weekend.

The area Farmers Markets [PDF] are opening up this weekend too so it’s time go get back on the local food kick.

Dropped Comcast in favor of U-Verse about a month ago. So far I’m pretty impressed! We keep running into the 4-stream limit at night when we are recording shows and kids are trying to watch live TV. Other than that little bit of frustration I would recommend the U-Verse service if it’s available in your area.

I have a lot of ideas for future posts so I’ll make an effort to get back on the Blog!

Happy Memorial Day everyone!

No More Twitter Posts!

At least on this blog… I’ve experimented with using Twitter to supplement the content on the IndyScan blog but have found that it just ends up cluttering things up. I already have the latest “tweet” on the right hand column and Twitter does come in handy to alert Facebook of Blog updates… I tried the “weekly” summary of Twitter posts but even that can get a little unruly… So, for the time being I have removed all Twitter content from the archives and will concentrate on actual blog posts… If you want to follow me on Twitter, feel free to do so here.

We’re Back Online!

Took a lot of trial & error but we’re back online with a new hosting provider! Time to get back to blogging!

We might be going off the air but we’ll be back!

Moving the blog to another hosting provider this week. Might be an outage but we’ll be back ASAP.

All Tenderloins, All The Time

Rick Garrett, over at All tenderloins, all the time, has put together a great theme website dedicated to the Indiana Tenderloin! You can’t call yourself a Hoosier unless you’ve had a Tenderloin & Rick is in search of the best the state has to offer. Head on over and check his site out!

Changing Twitter Updates on the Blog

Decided to change the Daily Twitter summary to a Weekly summary. Although I like the daily updates to the Blog, it’s to much clutter.

Finally! – WordPress for BlackBerry

WordPress for BlackBerry › WordPress for BlackBerry Public Beta.

I’ve been testing this application since it was released & for V1 it’s pretty good! I’ve used various plug-ins to automate posting while mobile. This application solves all of that & makes Mo-Blogging a piece of cake. If you are a Blogger & a Blackberry user, check it out, I think you will be very happy with the results.
