All of the above. And maybe none at all. I just kinda miss writting. I kinda miss being able to have thoughts that actully add up to something.

But seriously, that one year since last post is really scary.

Guess the first thing I should do is look into updating the Wordpress engine that runs this & get a new theme. Not really looking forward to messing with CSS, plug-in’s & wigets to get things just the way I want them. But the neglect that been going on here is just horrible.

Yes, just like GLaDOS, this blog is indeed ‘Still Alive’. And while the Cake is not a lie, it remains to be seen if I indeed can have my cake and eat it too.

Much changes here at the Edge, together with the long awaited upgrade to Wordpress 2.5 comes a new Theme and, hopefully, a little more simplified site navigation experience.

A quarter into the new year and you have no idea the amount of frustration I’ve been fielding due to this word constipation as a friend puts it. After awhile, I simply had to walk away and not allow myself to dwell on this for too long, hence all the neglect that does nothing to break the hold of the lack of content appearing here.

But as it always is with me, while I may walk away, I always come back. In one form or other.

The funny thing about change; as it happens you always hope that it is for the best. That’s natural. And thus it’s logical to assume that for something to get better, you have to change it in some way. Be it a change in job, mindset, habit or responsibility.

And so here I am, once again on the precipice of a major life change and as usual, I said to heck with it and just front load the bugger with even more changes, like re-vamping the Edge and in the above mentioned areas. Best to get it all out of the way together in one shot and see what sticks.

I’m back Baby. And the party is just beginning.

And now The Edge has been upgraded to match! Heh, I just had some free time in the afternoon and I didn’t want to be neglecting the blog again, so a round of backing up and upgrading seemed perfect.

As with all the past versions of Wordpress, I have had little problems with the upgrade. Only one plug-in got broken and not in a critical manner. That should be fixed soon enough once the plug-in author updates it to match.

Apart from the underlying enhances to the blogging engine and database, which I swear to learn much more about someday, there are few but major new features that have been added. Better control over the Blogroll and Categories is nice and all, but the big selling point for me is new editor…with SPELLCHECK.

…to me that deserves a whole new major number change to v3.0 instead of just v2.1 …

..which is just that sad really, but my spelling has never been a strong point. *Sigh* even my strengths have flaws. Keeps me humble I guess

The interface looks so much more pimping, here’s hoping that it helps get more creative juices going..
