OK, Go

It's up. Not yet 100% without issue, but it's there. If you use a blog reader of any sort, point it here. If you don't, you should really consider it if you read more than a single web site more often than about once a week. Go to Google Reader and start subscribing to stuff. You can check it like you'd check your email, and it will tell you when there's a new entry from BBC News, or me, or the IRS or Al-Jazeera, or whatever other Very Important Things you like to read.

Yes, I am ever going to update my blog. Promise. I actually have a few entries you haven't seen yet even though they're already written. See, I have my web site all ready to go, designed, looking mezzosnazzy, etc. My cousin is hosting it for me, though, being the nice guy that he is, and it's taken a little bit of work to get it up and running. It involves FTP permissions and some technical goofery. And then there were the issues getting it to look right in Internet Explorer, which I'm still only 93% sure I got through. It's been a slow process. And see, the thing is, I've been holding off on putting new posts here because I wanted to wait until I could be like, "OK, new web site! Go."

And that still hasn't happened.

But it will. In fact, I'm hoping within the next day or two. That means I might as well go ahead and tell you: the blog is moving. Start visiting kentwalter.com on an hourly basis now, and with any luck whatsoever, you'll see the new site within the next 24 hours. Just don't bite me or anything if it's not there right away.

The new site is kind of meant to be:

  • A supplement to my resume if that ever becomes beneficial in any way. (Not that it is at the moment, but if there's one thing being in Scouts having Eagle Scout friends taught me, it's to always be prepared),
  • A mini-biography/profile, which is sort like the first point,
  • A place to put my "creative" writing, separate from my life and events writing, and
  • This blog, moved, renamed, upgraded, and injected with a new dose of self-importance because I laid it out myself. Except really just moved. And renamed.

So there you go. Start clicking, and one day, you, like me, will have success seeing my web site on the actual internet. I'm looking forward to it!
