New server coming soon

New in the upgrade are some prefs that you may want to switch on:

In your Editors only: Prefs: Syndication:

Do you want to syndicate your discussion group? If you want to read your discussion group in a news reader, this will format it in RSS for you

In your Editors only: Prefs: Subscriptions:

Add in the sites that you want your aggregator to check. Didn't know you had an aggregator? Well, you have it's at astonvilla.blogfootball.com/mySite/aggregator

In your Editors only: Prefs: News Items:

You should really switch over to news item front pages. But you should certainly enable the comments and trackback! Don't know what trackback is? Ask Mac ";->" It's a way of linking on other peoples' sites to your article, discussing their article.

Dougs Grotto

OK. But not so funny to announce it already. Got to not tell anyone till 10 mins or so before. And it wouldn't matter where you flashed up, so long as most would be wearing Villa scarves or something.

maplinsMutherBoard.jpg The fan, motherboard, with ethernet and sound, and a 2.4 Athlon chip, all for £139.97 (plus VAT). Add in the hard disk, and a half gig of RAM, and that'll do nicely, sir.

I think this was the one Mac and I bought for the server.

But Mac pulled out some coupons which took off £25. Clever old Mac.

My PeeCee died at the weekend! Well it was brain dead it 11.09 Am Friday morning, when the power spike occurred. But it wasn't till the doctor arrived late Sunday evening, that we discovered this.

Thus, I need the same transplant that this server had. I'll do this tomorrow, after going through the spec with Mac, then I can start with the software upgrade to the blogfootball server.

Scoble starts a flash mob See ya all at the Flash Mob today at noon. I'll have a black hat on with a Longhorn logo. Bring your Tablet PC. I wanna take a picture. Then we'll hit one of the cafeterias on campus for lunch. Wanna come? Gotta send me email for the location. If you're coming from off-campus, I'll buy you pizza.

Mac, Mark, and others would this Flash mob idea be funny at a match?

Mmmmm. Seems prety speedy, can't wait to pulll it's brains out to make her speedier still.

Still some OS probs stopping me doing that. Plus the feckin PeeCee I've here, is screwed. Hoping it'll be fixed with scandisk in a minute. Bleedin' power switched off while she was booting up.

Damn, scandisk didn't do it.

Don't like Mac's new theme though. Imposed upon me too. I just need to add some finesses ";->"
