h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

During yesterday's BLACKOUT I decided it was a good time to start my own weblog . . . and so here it is:

http://azahar.wordpress.com

I'm still trying to get the hang of how it all works and also figure out what I actually want to do with it, so it's still a bit bare. But please feel free to pop in and say hello.




az

Tried to leave a message but not sure if it has worked.

I said this:
Hey this looks cool!

Did you have a look at a few sites and then choose this one. I've been thinking of having a go myself.

What are you planning on doin here?

Alex.

Nope, no message from you Alex. Wordpress is our content management system on the clothing website, so we were already familiar with it. And then kea mentioned Wordpress on another thread the other day as a good place for blogs, so we decided to try it out (Noggin has started one too).

s to check out Edward's.

I shall be adding them to the growing list of HooTooers with weblogs on my weblog: http://mudhooks.blogspot.com/

Anyone who would like to be added can leave me a message on my PS or here or something....

Great idea, az! I tried to leave a comment ('very pretty and spring-like, the orange and green') but got 'server busy' message..shall try later.

It took a long time to load on mine.

Yeah, it was a bit slow awhile ago - just try again, Elfrida.

Alex, I found your comment and reinstated it. Apparently it was considered spam and put aside - how's that for a switch?


az

<<'very pretty and spring-like, the orange and green'>>

Actually, the name for that skin is 'almost spring' Elfrida. At first I wasn't sure if I liked it, but I wasn't keen on the other skins and it also reminds me a bit of the colours on our website.


Apparently - are you ready? - Wordpress has been going through some system error problems due to not having enough servers (sound familiar?) but they say are in the final stages of more than doubling the servers, so that sounds promising.


az

It's lovely , az
Oh those 'system error' words strike terror in my heart ... let's hope the net have smooth sailing...

Elf of the Mixed Metaphor Society

Obviously the sheer number of friends and "interested parties" that you possess, all anxious to visit, overwhelmed their servers...

Let's hope more than double the present servers is enough!

I'm actually having lots of fun with it, figuring out how to do stuff. I've added a Links page and put some stuff on the About Me page (still more to do there, I think). There is also a forum that I had a quick look at. But I think I'll mostly use the blog as a journal and chatting with friends as I can edit everything there (and also swear if I want to! ) and continue to use the conversation forums here.

Just wondering about some other people's blogs - seems you need to register for a blog to just leave a message on some of them.

Oh good another contact place for az
It is getting harder all the time , for various reasons to communicate on here!

Hiya Az, I have bookmarked your blog and will visit as often as time permits.

I'm fairly certain you'd need to register with LiveJournal to post to mine. No worries if you don't want to do that- I didn't want to register at a number of different blog sites, either.

Yeah, I noticed that at Livejournal you can't post any comments unless you register (or unless you want to post as 'anonymous'), which is a bit off-putting. I like that Wordpress and Blogspot don't require this.

Anyhow, keep checking in . . . will hopefully be posting more stuff there soon.


az

Spam ?! Spam?!

Ha!

Spam's off. But you can have extra beans.

Well, Noggin and I wouldn't mind a few extra beans coming in from our website, to wit I've started a new journal entry on 'casa az' to try and get some feedback - not just about the clothes but also in case anyone has some tips to share about online promotion, etc.
