I no write good anymore

I’ve been thinking over the past few days about some blog posts I should sit down and write. I’ve had the time (sorta) and the ideas, but not the drive. Until tonight.

I sat down with a beer this evening prepared to “put pen to pad” and what came out was incoherent non-sense. I just couldn’t seem to capture my thoughts in a meaningful way. In fact I don’t know how this is coming out so well. My ability to put together a string of words that was not only grammatically correct but also captured my idea as well as my “normal” conversational posting style was coming up short.

So after several drafts I eventually tabled a few outlines to be flushed out later this week and I’m hopeing that I can get them finished while they’re still relavent and while I still have the balls to post them.

Testing out the upgrade to Wordpress 2.5

Sadly the last post to this blog was in November of last year. That’s pretty bad, even for me. No idea why I haven’t written more since I’ve actually had quite a lot to say. I’ve even been going through the trouble of making sure that Wordpress stays up-to-date with the latest versions. Which is why I’m writing now.

I just upgraded to the newly redesigned Wordpress 2.5 and boy oh boy is it nice. I heard the rumor around SXSW this year that the guys at HappyCog were assisting in the redesign of the admin interface. I think most thought that they would be bringing their own style, but it is safe to say that they have gone far beyond that. So many other sites have reviewed the changes made to the admin interface that I won’t really go into that here. What I will say is that the new interface is not only pleasing to the eye but also so much more usable than previous versions. Even in writing this simple post I feel as if the workflow involved making a new post is substantially easier which I hope will in fact make me want to post more. Only time will tell on that.
