Rottweilers Ate My Laptop

It is just as I feared

It was a lot easier to upgrade my camera than my photography skills. It is just as I feared. I will still end up with a frighteningly large number of dog butt photos as I go through the learning process.

And if I happen to be trying out sports mode (and don’t judge me for using the presets), I will end up with a frighteningly large number of nearly identical dog butt photos. In this test, there were nine. I won’t make you look at all of them.

   

Maybe I should make a flip book!

Winning is good

by

A while ago I entered this Twitter giveaway by my VPS provider, Wired Tree:

Guess what?

A Hybrid server is a lot more server than my current sites generally need. If you compare the specs to my current VPS512 you’ll see what I mean. But it will still be nice to move up. I’ve had the occasional out-of-memory errors and those likely won’t be a problem once we’re on a server with 2,048MB of RAM as compared to 512MB.

Of course, even if I hadn’t won the giveaway, I would still consider myself a winner. My personal sites, and those of my company, have been on WiredTree VPS servers since May 2009. It has been a happy and trouble-free 18 months. I am more than satisfied with our low-end VPSs and the fact that even with our low-end servers, I am still treated like a high-end customer in terms of response time and quality of customer service. Thanks, WiredTree… for everything!
