Happy New Year…and Extended Maintenance
So with Facebook no longer publishing RSS feeds, I’ve been prompted to move to a different publishing platform for Arranged Delirium. I’ve been using ExpressionEngine (previously pMachine) for years; but the newer version is simply overkill for a single blog, and unnecessarily complex. So, I’ll be moving to Wordpress over the next month and simply starting up all over again. This will take a bit of time, so activity will be little here for a while…
But it the meanwhile, I’ll leave you with a few things to read:
1) Are you using the latest version of Firefox? It’s a winner. You can read about it at this WebMonkey article, but go download it immediately - it’s the best new browser I’ve worked with for a while. Very quick and now nicely streamlined while maintaining extensive customization abilities. It’s my current browser of choice.
2) Since Steve Jobs’ passing, there have been a good number of items written about him. Some of these, as is the case with history recent or ancient, revisions take place. I think its important to remember the humanity of Steve Jobs - he was, like all of us, a great and terrible person. Here’s an article from Forbes reflecting on the Think Different ad campaign.
3) And finally, thanks to AW for this Slate article which does a very good job of bemoaning the increasing complexity between our competing tech platforms. It’s the 80’s/90’s all over again!
See you in about a month!
