Welcome Back!
Okay, so it occurred to me that I might have lost some subscribers.
That’s why there was a bit of finagling to get to this page for some of you. See, a whole bunch of folks who read this blog use aggregators, of one kind or another, and not all of them may have corrected for the format change. Well, that only occurred to me last night while I was futzing around with other stuff. So, I hurried about and made some changes that should not only let everyone know that I’ve changed things here, but how to get to the “new” site. At least, that’s the idea. In a couple of days, or weeks, I’ll get rid of the index.html page that redirects folks to the main blog. Before that, though, I’ll get rid of all the other faux indexes (indexii ?) which should let all my faithful readers find their way to my new home. (You know who you are!)
Actually, that brings up a point. How many readers do I have here? I have no idea. I average somewhere between 2500 and 3000 hits per day, depending on the measurement tool used, but I only show two subscribers via Bloglines. Now, I know my future-ex-wife watches this blog, even though she seems to have dropped her subscription to it via Bloglines, so that makes three of you. And, allowing for the fact that I probably only have 250 to 300 “unique” visitors per month, according to another reporting tool, that leaves somewhere in the neighborhood of 247 readers, of some kind, unaccounted for running around out there. (See, I not only managed mathmatics, but I didn’t end the sentence with a preposition!) So, where are you all? What are you all doing here? What brought you here? Why do you come back? Inquiring minds want to know! And, I do, too.
The plural of “index” is “indices”. As to the rest of your blog, I’m so new at this stuff that I couldn’t begin to comment, other than to say that it looks prety friendly and easy to read. Based on what I saw, I downloaded the wordpress software, and may try to set up a blog for myself.

Oh, sure, take advantage of a good night’s sleep why don’t you. Aw, who am I kidding? I’ve always been a little spelling impared, that’s why someone invented the spellchecker. Thanks for the vote of confidence on the blog. The WordPress install is very easy and I’ve really found that developing plugins for it is pretty painless, too. In fact, if you install WP, I’ll hook you up with some custom jobs. ^_^

Your blog said Novell in it, so I found it. I read it. It is good. We need more of us.

Amen, Brother! Not a lot of Novell action at work right now, but I’m doing lots of Linux. And, I’ll be travelling soon to roll out the desktop imaging solution and do server upgrades. That’s *world-wide* travel, by the way. There’ll lots to talk about there, eh?
