Let me know if there are any issues.

ScribeFire opens a pane at the bottom of your browser (or a new tab or window) allowing you to create a post to one of a number of blogging services, with the ability to edit multiple blogs and switch between them instantly. Check out their getting started page to learn more.

On top of full post writing and editing, you can open up your del.icio.us bookmarks in the pane and add the current page or search your existing bookmarks. Now, I never get hooked into del.icio.us, preferring ma.gnolia, but there are still so few tools and add-ons available for it that I may go back to my old del.icio.us account. Then again I don’t really use either all that much, so maybe not. ma.gnolia just looks so much nicer.

At the beginning of last month I had all 4 wisdom teeth pulled; the surgery went well (local anesthetics) and the recovery went even smoother. After playing catch up from that, two weeks ago I came down with bronchitis, and I’m still suffering the remnants of the cough.

Busy things in store for this spring:

You shouldn’t notice anything, but let me know if something broke in the process.

I was in the middle of updating WordPress when my server’s FTP crapped out, leaving me S.O.L. I submitted a help ticket and they rebooted the FTP daemon on the server and all’s well again.

Let me know if anyone notices anything out of whack with the new update.

But now I’ve got around to implemented a Feed Burner feed, which you can find here or in the sidebar.

Note that the old feed will now redirect to the Feed Burner one, so if you’ve subscribed, please update your link to the following:

Stay tuned!

For those who don’t know, I do web development for a living, and now the company I work for has given each of us a blog on our internal server. Each of us use it to post tips and writings about things pertinent to our jobs, and some of those things might be useful to people outside of our team, so I’m going to share some of my posts here.

For those who haven’t jumped on the wagon yet, you can grab my RSS feed to stay up to date with posts.

If you’re here just for the technical stuff (or just want to read about certain topics), you can browse the categories you want from the list on the right.

Shattered Reality was down for a few days due to switching around my server, but it’s back up and running, and with a fresh new look!
