So, I changed web hosts today.
No real impetus for the change, other than the fact that I was getting tired of all the hoops I was having to jump through to do things with my old host. They primarily dealt with Rails hosting, and that was fine, but Ive slowly been drifting away from Rails over the past year, and moving back towards PHP. My old host just didn’t have things set up to the point where it was easy to host both types of applications on the same account.
So, here I am. I ditched the old Rails blog, moved to WordPress, and registered a slightly shorter version of my URL, www.advback.com. I’m liking WordPress so far, its exactly what Ive been (and still am, in some capacity) desperately trying to recreate with my various Rails based monstrosities. One of my favorite features thus far is the little code/syntax highlighting plugin I installed. Quite cool, and very useful as well:
public class TestClass extends Activity {
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState){
Button button = (Button)findViewById(R.id.button_id);
int x = 42;
String text = "Syntax highlighting is awesome!";
}
}
Fun stuff, I must admit. So basically, nothing changes. Ill keep putting my mindless (and hopefully, occasionally useful) babblings up here, and you, the collective audience that is the internet, will continue to not read them. Business as usual.
Cheers to the new site.
