The NEW Spreadsheet Page

Finally, I redesigned The Spreadsheet Page. The official launch is Friday, but you can take a sneak peek if you're interested.

Out with FrontPage, and in with Expression Engine. Man, that's some powerful software. The site is all database driven now, so it will be much easier to maintain and update.
Feedback is welcome. If [...]

Site Statistics

If any readers or authors are interested in site statistics, here are a few for you. Stats are tracked using Reinvigorate. As far as I know, there’s no facility to link to real time stats.
It looks like I should have set up Reinvigorate a little earlier in the move. I lost about [...]

New Authors

Recently, I’ve invited some fellow MVPs to author posts on this blog. Lo and behold, some of them took me up on it. I don’t know how many of the invitees will sign up or how frequently they will post, but you can expect to see some new faces soon. There will [...]

I Have Slashdot In My Sights

I’m putting my caffeine addiction on hold. My cartiologist will be so happy.
Techweb announced its Blog Readers Choice winners on Monday, and DDXL finsihed a respectable 5th. Not last, but not showing off, that’s the way I like it. JWalk provided me with a nice slogan “Just Slightly Less Popular Than [...]

Switching Servers

I’ll be switching servers this weekend.  If I’m lost in the vast expanse of cyberspace, don’t worry.  If I’m not back by Tuesday, send help.
Once I get this done, I should be in a position where I can respond to your comments and emails.  Sorry about the lack of response lately.

Technical Difficulties

If my last post isn’t evidence enough, I’m having some technical difficulties.  TypePad recently changed their UI and it’s wreaking havoc on my VBA html.  I’m sure they’re only trying to make things easier, but it’s having the reverse effect on me.
I will be redoubling my efforts to get this blog to its new server.  [...]

Movin’ On Up

I’ve exceeded my bandwith at TypePad three months in a row now. They haven’t charged me anything extra, so they must be pretty nice people over there. I don’t intend to abuse that graciousness. I will recommend TypePad to anyone who wants to start a blog with a minimum of fuss.
Over the [...]
