I’m Liking It

I upgraded the blog to the newest version of WordPress, 2.5. While the experience for you, the reader, should be pretty seamless, this new version of WordPress is great on the back end. It’s a lot easier to do things now, and the WordPress interface is finally catching up to Movable Type in terms of being easy to use.

Flickr-y Goodness

If you haven’t ever noticed the Flickr widget that resides on the right hand bar of my page here, you may not have seen a whole bunch of photos I uploaded from a recent trip to Chicago. If you haven’t seen them (or want to see any of my mostly boring Flickr randomness), you can always check out my Flickr page.

Oh, and of course, if you have the Flickr, I love Flickr friends :).

Version 2.0

Welcome to dimensionsix dot net, version 2.0. This was long overdue, I think. Things had changed a lot since I started d6 back in 2004. I kind of made this thing really formal, doing it more like a straight up zine rather than a blog, with articles rather than entries. When I suddenly didn’t have the time to write, well, the thing got stagnant. Plus, when I just wanted to put in a quick thought, I felt like it was out of place. So I’m changing the game here.

I’ll be doing things a bit differently. There will still be the more formal article-like entries, but I will also have lots of quick thoughts. WordPress and K2 have a neat thing called asides, which set those kind of quick post things apart, and I like that.

Anyway, welcome to d6 2.0. Hopefully, this ride will be as memorable as always.
