One post per quarter
Blogging was apparently not the most important thing for me in the last year. Amazing four posts in 2008 and hardly any visitors to this site (except some people looking for Time Machine notifications with Growl – thanks for that!).
New year is just around the corner and traditionally it’s now the time to make resolutions for the new year. Well, here is one of mine: I will write more blog posts in 2009 and make this place a more vivid one. Part of this “initiative” will be some information about my current job and what I do (as far as I’m allowed to tell you about), some geekish – I recently got an iPhone and started developing Cocoa applications – and not so geekish things – purchasing a sewing machine and constructing some small furniture are other resolutions for 2010.
So, the first step into the right direction was changing my old blog theme (Tarski) to something new (Grid Focus by Derek Punsalan), spicing it up with some Flickr and delicious badges, and, of course, adding some fancy social media icons. I also updated Wordpress to the newest version and noticed that installing plugins and themes is now a lot easier than it was last year, thanks to the plugin and theme directory. No need to ftp’ or ssh’ to your server, just click and install. Nice.
