It wasn't me! It was Mac! He did it, I saw him do it!

Looks like we'll be down till 9.00am tomorrow.

[Update: 9:10am 1st Oct] Indeed we're down for 14 hours. Never ever been this long before. We've put measures in to ensure it never happens for so long again.

Bug for supper, bugs for tea. Fed up of bugs, all I eat is bugs, and now the cupboard is bare.

Anybody know of any bugs?

Please tell me, I'm so hungry for bugs.

What's it all about Alfie? Well the upgrade to a new faster machine didn't go so well, some sites are missing bits, though it should all work out in the wash.

[Update: 10:30am] all sites are now working perfectly.

Mostly, the upgrade was for comments and trackbacks. This is for serious bloggers, if you've been blogging for a while now, I guess you're serious.

I'm trying to fix it so that all you'd have to do is go to your Editors only ==> Prefs ==> News items. There you'll need to switch on the news items feature.

Then you don't flip the page anymore, you create a new news item instead. Sure, these can still be short, or very long. Basically, it's the same thing as your old vanilla manila, but it gives you the option of much, much more power.

So there'll be trackbacks, comments, searches, email to blog, aggregators, and a few more things which I'll remember later.

And you really ought to get used to news items manila instead of vanilla manila.
