A Little Quiet Around Here… Huh?

Thursday, April 19th, 2007

As you may have noticed, things have been a little quiet around here for a while.
While the blogs have still been active, we hope to announce some changes soon that will breath a little fresh life into Niner Niner and our network of 27+ weblogs!
Cheers,

And …. we’re back!

Monday, March 27th, 2006

Ooops - I’ve been playing with WordPress Multi-user so that we can add blogs onto subdomains of NinerNiner.com.
I.e. “yourfavoritetopic.ninerniner.com”. I forgot to disable the Virtual Hosts directive after playing around with it the other day, causing My.ninerniner.com and Talkie.ninerniner.com to be inaccessible.

The numbers speak for themselves: […]

Sunday, December 18th, 2005

It would be nice if everyone was using The Better Browser, but unfortunately, that is not the case.
Not only that, but many are tethered to IE by the restrictions placed upon them by IT Departments that do not allow installation of even the most benevolent of softwares. (Firefox, that is)

Talkie Is Back!

Saturday, December 17th, 2005

For a bit there, we were trying to run Talkie out of the WordPress trunk.
This proved to be a bad idea, due to permissions issues.
We’re now rocking the WordPress v2 Release Candidate 2, available from the nightly builds over at WordPress.org.
It’s nice, indeed. The Ajax is slick but you can tell it eats up a […]

Using structured blogging plugin for reviews now

Saturday, October 15th, 2005

Just found the structuredblogging.org plugin that structures a Wordpress entry in a very logical manner, where you have specific fields for creating and editing a review that it then can format in a logical manner. Other than a couple of minor issues (the link checking doesn’t seem to be working, will need to look […]
