Movable Type
I have decided to move the weblog into the 21st century and have subsequently upgraded to Movable Type This was not without some pain.
I am currently hosting with Canaca. They have hosting plans starting at $3.95 per month with 5GIG, yes that is GIG, of space. Throw in with that is the ability to have 5 subdomains. I already have one in my Photography Website. The subdomains support CGI scripts, so I decided to install MT into a new subdomain. I figured this would allow me to test getting it working before deleting the Greymatter weblog.
The installation had some hiccups. I had some initial problems getting the pathing correct. Then I had to figure out how they had strung together the templates. I finally got it running. Jason at Jclark helped with a few bugs. The navigation is still kind of funky. I may end up changing our site around to accommodate the changes.
Lastly here is a picture of the snow in Charlotte. This will be a pain for me with the trucking business.
