Wow, I don’t know if any of you who have left messages here in the last year will see this, but I’m going to start getting back to you anyway.

I have a script on this page to enable people to leave message for me. I was under the distinct impression that those messages would be emailed to me… I haven’t received any emails so I figured nobody was leaving messages. After all, how many people actually leave messages on blogs other than in comments?

I have been repeatedly comment spammed recently by someone or someones. I haven’t spent enough time on it to bother seeing if it’s the same IP on all of them or not.

Bottom line is - you are wasting your time (even though they are clearly being automated - and in an odd sort of way, for that I commend you! =) I just go into my admin panel and mass-delete the comments with one button push. It is at most, mildly amusing/annoying. However you should know that I went ahead and contacted various channels and pointed them in your direction, so it’s possible you’ll get a phone call/email/visit in the near future to, er… kindly ask you to stop.

Wow, had some weird database disconnection craziness, but all seems fine once again. I just hadn’t looked at it in a couple weeks, been so busy on other things. But once again, the Macro King is back in action!

Boy what an adventure…

I tried to move this blog to a different account, and unfortunately it went very, very bad. SQL can be an ugly beast! I managed to get everything back up again after Tykoon in the Traffic Equalizer forum pointed me to this awesome WordPress resource. Nothing was lost at all, however during the move there was some DNS craziness that had to sort itself out. It seems to have done so now, so The Macro King is back!

Sadly, a friend and mentor of mine died quite suddenly about a week ago, and I will be attending his memorial service in Las Vegas tomorrow (Sunday), and won’t be back until Monday. That, combined with a rather crazy amount of other things that are going on for me right now, means I probably won’t be posting for at least a couple days. I know you’ll miss me… admit it, it’s ok.

But never fear, I’ll be back soon and as always with all kinds of nifty ideas for how to do things more efficiently and faster than ever.

Well, ok, so it’s really AUTOMATION that’s King, not me personally, but I take whatever accolades I can get!

So, what’s this little corner of the net about? It’s all about speed, baby. The faster and more efficient I can work, the better off my life in general (not to mention my bank balance!) gets. You’ve probably all heard the saying “work smarter, not harder” before, but how many people really put that into practical use? That’s what this place is here for.
