Admin, News.

I have decided when I have nothing to write about (which happens quite a lot) I will do a product review. I will like to talk more about household items and computer related items, such as small household appliances, furniture, and other small things you would find around your home. For Computer related items I would talk about printers (I have 4 to talk about in later) computer accessories such as speakers, different cables and connectors. I also like to talk more about Apple stuff, since I like using my Mac WAY more than I like using my big, slow PC from 2004. I would talk about iPods, and accessories for them, and various other Apple products, and Apple compatible products.

I hope the Product reviews that I will soon be posting here will prove useful for some people. Please leave your comments to tell if the review has been useful. I will also be setting up a post rating system so readers can rate the reviews from 1 to 5 stars.

I will post pictures of the product I will review, and a description of it, and why I like it. I may even post a video once in a while. I will also post info on where to purchase the product.

That’s about all for now, I look forward to do some reviews!

Tomorrow is my last day of school before going on Summer Holidays. It is very exciting and I need this break so much, like I said over and over again! I am so looking forward to the summer- about 10 weeks of holidays!

I still have not got too much planned for this summer, but I know it will be a very good holiday! I can’t wait!!

Tomorrow, there is not too much going on, so that will be good.

Tomorrow:

•  I have to clean out my Locker.
• I have to bring in stuff for the year end breakfast.
• We go to the Academic Awards ceremony.
• We have a final period of Art, and then the year is done!

I am really looking forward to this!

As some of you know, I run a little design company- BlueSummerSkies Design. It really began in 2005. I did some work in March for a small birthday site. It was very small, not a lot of work to be done. I am now doing some work for a small jewelry company. The site is going to hopefully be online soon. Check out my Portfolio.

Next, in a few weeks or so, I will be starting on a site for a company called Biokinetics. I will be re designing their entire site, and doing a new company logo for them, and I’m really looking forward to it!

Next after that, in a little while, I might have another client to do work for, because they are thinking of opening a buisiness.

Here at my site, I’ve got a new design from Beccary, and I have already started customizing it. I will be done in a few months. Things might look wierd here for a while, but I’m working on things!

That’s it!

  WordPress 2.0.6 did not last very long- at all! WP has already released version 2.0.7 which is probably going to be the last of WP 2.0. WordPress recommends that you upgrade your WordPress installation. There’s been a few bugs, and the Highly recommend you upgrade!! If you have not bothered to upgrade your WP, now is a good time to do it.

A while ago, I posted about my New website, Bluesummerskies.net. It was going to be a tutorial blog, offering web tutorials. Yesterday, we turned it into a small web design Business, as a little hobby to make some money on. The site was powered by Movable Type, but was just sitting there doing nothing, so I completely wiped it, and now it’s a WordPress powered non-blog website. I like WordPress, as you can use it for a blog, or with the right templates and plugins, use it to manage a full website. I also like Movable Type. My other personal site is powered by it.

That’s about it. I just wanted to say I started a small family Business, and we will see where it goes. I don’t expect to get any clients for a while, but hopefully I will sometime!

WordPress has launched a new feature on their website. It’s a simple form (click here) to express how you feel about WordPress. Tell the WP develoment team what you Absolutely Hate about WordPress! You can write anonymously write and express the things you disagree about in WordPress.

I think this is a good new feature, so you can really tell the development team about what you really hate and think should be changed.

Kvetch is Yiddish for: 1.  A chronic, whining complainer,  A nagging complaint: “a rambling kvetch against the system” (Leonard Ross).- From Answers.com. 

WordPress talks more about this on their Development Blog. Click here to read their post.

Yesterday, I started a New Site. I will only go to it, occasionally. I will mostly be ‘blogging’ on this site. I will once, and a while, publish a post on the other site.

It’s Sunday, and there is nothing much going on. I think, that today, we will have to go out, to a few different places.

Weather

Today, for Ottawa, we are going to be getting to a high of 18°C, mainly Sunny, all day.
