Overhaul in progress
The latest WordPress / Plugin update was a bit more than my old, extremely hacked Performancing theme (from 2006) could handle. The resulting mess was so unbearable that I felt compelled to switch to the new stock theme. I’ve been putting off a complete overhaul of this site for far too long. As it happens, [...]
Time For A New Theme
Since September 2007, I’ve been using a very hacked version of a theme that was close to being obsolete when I selected it. We’re getting ready to roll into 2010 and the design of the entire site is starting to smell like feet. I’m between two ideas, at the moment: Grab the D-40 and go [...]
WordPress 2.8 Just “Feels Good”
I usually cringe with automatic updates to anything, however I have no problem auto-updating WordPress after pulling a backup. I pulled in 2.8 today and to my amazement, it looked like nothing had changed. Then, since I was logged in anyway, I stole five minutes of time to add my StackOverflow stats to the side [...]
Yes, I’m still alive

I’m alive and kicking, the last month and a half has been extremely busy. There are some new goodies, however! Gridnix is finally launching, projects that [...]

After this blog turned one year old, that task became insurmountable. Mostly, I thank Google for this pestilence. If a page has many [...]
A year of Echoreply
Today, Echoreply turns 1 year old. The first post was a year ago today. Hurray! I managed to avoid hosing the blog database for 365 days and kept up with hosting arrangements. To the 200 some folks who have posted comments – thanks for making my hobby more enjoyable. The first year yielded 220 articles [...]
Echoreply turns 200!
No, not 200 years, 200 posts. Apparently this is some kind of milestone for a personal blog. This is post #201! Thanks to all who read, especially those who comment and put up with my antics. Hopefully I have provided something interesting and useful. Cheers! –Tim
