A Global Village Sitting Just This Side of Cyberspace
Well, It’s been one helluva week for global communications at my house. First my computer decided to chew up the operating system and spit it back out on the screen in convenient little chunks. I decided to reformat one of the hard drives and install an Ubuntu Linux derivative, Mint as an additional operating system. Usually I’m a Zenwalk man but I got irritated with always running into good Ubuntu software repositories and very little for Zenwalk. I also couldn’t get the Raw Photo plugin for GIMP to work in Zenwalk for some reason.
Anyways, that’s pretty geeky stuff. I know most would be completely uninterested in it. Let’s just say the computer is working on all levels at the moment. Whew! I then decided to upgrade my WordPress installation on my server. I know, I must be a real glutton for punishment. I stared the upgrade and left for work this morning expecting the files to upload and all be sweet. I’ve done this many times before. Here again, the electron gods were not smiling on me. I got to work and hit my site only to notice that there was nothing there! Nada! Not a single line of code or anything!
OK, so that’s all sorted now. For this week’s Creative Photo, I’m gonna appease those Electron Gods and produce a real virtual Global Village suspended in Cyberspace. Hope this changes my luck!
On a side note … see the circuit board in that photo? It’s no longer causing me any troubles
