Posts from ‘August, 2004’

Yesterday was the first anniversary of the now defunct graham@lias.wyn! Although I had been blogging on LiveJournal some months before and had even constructed my own pages on my providers freewebsite I have always considered my first post here as the real debut.
So a year has gone by and I am still around. Amazing. The [...]

I took Stéphanie’s advice and made the move. It seems to be working so now I can get back to the business of blogging.
Oh and welcome to my new WordPress blog aptly named just.graham. I took the liberty of reserving the domain justgraham.net too (you can try it if you like because I installed it [...]

Well from what I read it is simple to move the main WordPress index file from it’s subdirectory to the root thus avoiding visitors having to change links to the blog.
Well this is the second evening that I attempt to do it and it’s not working. I will have to resort to using a redirect [...]

I went to a meeting in Zurich yesterday and took the train. It takes just over three hours from Geneva to Zurich so I spent six hours in the train for a two and a half hour meeting but I was offered lunch so all in all it was well worth it.

Ok, let’s get this show on the road. I’m as ready as I will ever be WordPresswise and a bit tired of all these uninteresting progress reports on installation matters. You deserve more!

The problem with floating [...]

Je pense pouvoir reconnaître une bonne idée, et quand je l’ai vu chez Stéphanie il m’est venu l’idée de faire de même. Elle met un sommaire en Anglais à ces postes en Français et en Français quand elle poste en Anglais. Peut-être qu’elle à vu cela ailleurs, je ne sais pas. Il faudrait que je [...]

Well you know how it goes. This new design in the making has gone through some big changes and will continue to do so over the next few days I imagine.
Although I retained the two column box in the middle” design with floating columns, I couldn’t resist adding a third column between the posts and [...]

I had a bit of time on my hands today as I wasn’t feeling too well (but I won’t bore you with that) so I decided to look at my blog. I ended up taking a look at the WordPress installation that I did around christmas time and I thought “Hmmm”
Dangerous thought that was indeed. [...]
