Welcome to my new home. I dunno, I think it seems to happen about once a year, I get restless and start doing things. Last year it was setting up a blog and moving to Ubuntu<\/a>, this year it’s buying some sensible domains names and moving everything around in a bid to take over the world with my Grand Master Plan.<\/p>\n

So anyway, I bought adamsweet.org<\/a>, adamsweet.net<\/a> and adamsweet.co.uk<\/a>. adamsweet.com<\/a> is already taken and I emailed the guy about 2 months ago to say hi as we share the same name and he didn’t reply. My old website<\/a> still exists and so does everything at that domain, like my blog, just that it’s all Apache virtual hosts now on my own server. Yeah, I got my own server at work, it’s not a powerhouse or anything, just an old server that was lying around in need of some parts replacing.<\/p>\n

I decided some time back to buy the above domains and consolidating them all onto one server under my own control, I’m a sysadmin for chrissakes. Theres only so much you can do when you have 3 meg of disk space left and you run out of bandwidth 6 days before the end of every month. It’s like a statement of where I am in terms of my skills. As I said, last year it was setting up a blog and moving my desktop to Ubuntu. This year I have a clear plan of everything, I want my blog, a new website and my own mail set up, along with a stats viewer and a few other bits and pieces. Hopefully I will look back in about a years time and think how primitive it all is.<\/p>\n

I’m about halfway there so far. My old website was a simple upload and Apache<\/a> virtual host<\/a>. My blog was the same, along with setting up the database and it’s prerequisites. I’ve still got to sort out the gallery as I didn’t bring the old one over as I wanted to get away from Coppermine<\/a> and move over to Gallery<\/a>. I originally chose Coppermine because it looked nicer and more featureful than Gallery, but now Gallery is looking good and Coppermine was just too awkward and I didn’t want to invest the time to learn to use it properly as it should be obvious how to use it in the first place. I want to do the mail system before I set up my new website. To be honest, I have no idea what I’m going to put there either. My blog says who I am and what I do and thats most of what I want to say. My old website is much of the stupid stuff I wanted to do when I was younger and it’s largely unmaintainable now. I think I’ll have to do all of the tutorials and stuff I’ve been threatening to do for years, even though I don’t have that much time these days.<\/p>\n

Anyway, welcome to the other side.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
