Check one… check one… sibilance… sibilance…

Sound good in the back? Great.

So, I see some of you are still here from the last show. That was nearly a year ago, thanks for sticking around. As you can see we’re cleaning up the place, modernizing a bit, and we hope to kick off a new tour soon. Thanks for your patience…

(Translation: I finally decided to update the site and give blogging another go. I’m still tweaking things, but I think I’m getting pretty close to having things how I want them before I start up again. And this is kind of a test post to make sure everything is working – like the new Twitter, Facebook, and LiveJournal cross-posting setup.)

    Nice!

      Thanks.  I’ve been slowly putting things in place to re-launch, and finally got bunch of stuff done in the past few weeks.  I would’ve been done sooner but I had some stuff come up that burned up some of the time I expected to have.  A lot of behind the scenes stuff – updated WordPress, just about all of my plugins, finally dumped the old theme and created and all new one, setup mirroring to Facebook, Twitter, and LiveJournal, switched to Disqus for commenting, updated my ads… It’s really been like starting over, other than the existing content.

      I have a little more to do, and I’m still tweaking the layout and such, but I think I’m close enough that everything seems to be working and what’s left should be minor enough that I can kick things off again soon and make changes as I go and get a feel for it again.

        The overall look seems good, can’t wait wait to see what you’ve got planned. Hopefully, TiVo & Sling will throw an assist with some fresh innovations.
