T Minus One

We’re go for launch! I’ll be taking the blog offline this evening to work on it for a bit, and it may come back up with the new design before the official launch date tomorrow. But that’s OK — it gives me time to start posting lots of cool stuff on the launch date. [...]

Relaunch countdown: 3 days to go!

Wow, time is passing us by and the relaunch of Finite Calls Infinite is almost here! I’m glad I set a hard deadline to get this done — otherwise, it definitely wouldn’t be ready to go on the 22nd. But I’m happy to say it will be ready. Yeah!!!
My last remaining hurdle is to work [...]

Launch date: September 22

OK guys, I know I could keep procrastinating and tinkering ’till the cows came home, so I’ve set an official launch date for the NEW blog:
September 22, 2007
Mark your calendars. I’ll be posting occasionally as we countdown to the launch, but for the most part, it’ll be quiet as I get all my ducks in [...]

Blog redesign nearly complete!

Howdy y’all…just got a quick update for ya: my redesign for Finite Calls Infinite is nearly complete! I have a working copy of WordPress on my MacBook with the theme in place and a copy of the live database, so I just need finish some final HTML tweaks, import some necessary plugins/widgets to test, finalize [...]

Sneak peak of work-in-progress design and “the future”

Based on the suggestion of my friend Chris, I thought I’d give you all a sneak peak of the design I’m currently working on for the next incarnation of Finite Calls Infinite. It’s a thumbnail of my Photoshop layout, so it’s not a functioning site yet. But it’s probably about 90% there in terms of [...]

Pooped out

Wow, what a crazy day. I am just pooped out! It doesn’t seem like last week’s steam roller has stopped running yet! Let me give you a brief outline of my day:
4:45 am: wake up, shower, eat.
5:40 am: drive to bus depot
5:46 am: get into bus
7:40 am: arrive in downtown San Francisco
7:55 am: settle into [...]

Redesign in progress

I am in the progress of redesigning Finite Calls Infinite, which among other things will entail an upgrade of WordPress as well as some additional helpful plugins such as editing comments after a post — yay! I’m very happy with how it’s looking in Photoshop, so shortly I’ll export out the graphics and do the [...]

Onward with the steam roller!

Ever have one of those moments in time when you feel like you’re looking at a steam roller coming right at you and you can’t get out of the way? Yeah, me too. It’s called “this week”.
Normal blogging will resume once I pick up the pieces of myself squished all over the floor and reassemble [...]

Three things to be thankful for

Wow, the mood’s been pretty intense here the past few days. I’m not used to it! One thing’s for sure — I now know how to grab traffic and generate discussion in the comments: talk about something really controversial and challenge your opponents. Hmm, maybe that’s why Fox News and talk radio are so popular. [...]

Useless trivia for the day

Hey, I just passed the 100 comment mark for the blog! Not bad for something I casually started at the beginning of this year and never really promoted. Just wait until I get going!
Another piece of useless trivia: one of the top search phrases that people find my blog by is “hunger is [...]
