Posted by admin under Photography

Looking to do some photo work soon. I’d really like to head to the zoo and take some photos. I need some better lenses! Hoping to doing relatively soon. Going to Mendon Ponds Bird Trail today. Definitely excited. It’s a beautiful day out to top it all off!

iWHMCS and Direct Admin

Posted by admin under Uncategorized

Since Ive been working on web hosting, Ive been trying to learn as much as I can about direct admin and whmcs. They are both great products, but quite a bit to learn. I was working on doing backups for users manually and searched through direct admin. Doing backups is available, but definitely need to find a good workflow for it. Whmcs has been amazing, however their iPhone app has been less than great. After a $40 purchase to turn on iWHMCS, I downloaded the app, and it crashes every time upon login. Tried on other phones, still the same issue. Im hoping there’s a fix for it soon,
Im still learning this stuff, but I’m enjoying learning it. If anyone has some good practices with the software, please feel free to email me or write a comment. Thanks!

New Theme

Posted by admin under Uncategorized

So I decided I didn’t like the way my blog looked. Im no designer, so I found a theme I like. I think I’ll keep this one for a little bit and see how I like it. Let me know what you think!

A New Beginning

Posted by admin under Personal

So today is going to be a new beginning for some things in my life. I want to make a few good changes. I’d like to start biking more often, eating healthier and blogging more often. Hopefully if I write enough, I can keep myself on track for things. I feel that writing about my experiences will help me with a few things. So what I’d like to do is eventually ride 10-20 miles on my bike daily, eat healthier and write a blog entry every day. Is it possible? Sure. I just need to discipline myself to do it. It will probably be a rocky start, but I’m up for the challenge. If anyone eants to help by going out riding, or eating somewhere good, let me know!

So here’s a start…

SpiderOak

Posted by admin under Uncategorized

So SpiderOak is an online backup solution for syncing your files from a computer to a cloud storage. At first I wasn’t too crazy about it because I had a few issues, but after the kinks, things have been great. It automatically keeps things backed up without me needing to think about it. I still use Drop Box for some things, however SpiderOak is another tool I will be using in the future. If you’re interested, please check them out: Sign Up!

Accomplishing Day!

Posted by admin under Personal

So this morning I woke up, found a little extra money, so I used it to pay some bills, and also get a couple tubes for my bike. Replaced the tube and rode around for a few minutes to make sure it was ok. Damn it feels good to ride again. Can’t wait for summer!
Also can’t wait for my Canon 40D to show up any time from the Canon repair center. It’s been a year with out it, and a couple weeks ago I finally stopped procrastinating and shipped it off. Can’t wait to take a look and see what the issue was. Hopefully they’ll tell me.
Tonight I’m also taking my car over to my dad’s so he can help replace a coolant flange so my car isn’t over heating anymore. I’m interested to see if the AC works on the car since I got it in winter and couldn’t really test it. More to come if things go well even more later.
