So, kids, you’ve probably noticed a few changes here at Simple Tricks and Nonsense. To explain, my Webmaster Jack<\/a> has finally made good on that long-promised server upgrade<\/a>, and this site is now living on a shiny new machine located on the 86th floor of a towering Manhattan skyscraper, surrounded by the very latest products of modern “super-science” and dedicated to the fight against evil in all its worldly forms…<\/p>\n

Okay, so I’m embellishing a bit, but the site actually has been transferred to a new physical home, which should make things a bit more efficient on the back end. I don’t know if there will be a noticeable differences for my three loyal readers, either good or bad; if you have any problems, please leave a comment in this post or shoot me an e-mail at jason @ jasonbennion.com (remember to remove the spaces before and after the “@” symbol).<\/p>\n

As for the change in the blog’s color scheme and layout, that’s because Jack also updated the Movable Type<\/a> software that enables you fine folks to read all my blather, and it turns out that the new version doesn’t support my old stylesheet. I’m still trying to decide what to do about that; this new look is kind of nice, but I’ve always thought the old one provided a nice signature effect for the site. (I’ve seen very few other blogs that used my old color scheme, whereas this lighter, brighter one seems to be pretty common.) You’ll also notice that the customary list of links is missing. It should be back before too long in a new and improved form, as well as a couple of other ideas I’ve got brewing.<\/p>\n

On the positive side, the new version of MT is supposed to be much better at handling comment spam, so we’ll have fewer embarassing incidents involving “male enhancement” products. And you can now search through past entries according to category, a luxury we didn’t have before. Guess I need to be more careful about how I file things from now on.<\/p>\n

One final note: comments made in the last few days did not survive the transfer to the new server, so if you’re wondering what happened to your little piece of intellectual property, rest assured that I did not delete anybody’s thoughts on purpose. Just one of those things, and I apologize.<\/p>\n

More a little later.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
