Hopefully there weren’t too many visitors turned away by the “Warning - visiting this web site may harm your computer!” message from Google. Here is a blog article with more information about the problem. I deleted all of the WordPress files and upgraded to WordPress 2.5.1, then reloaded all of the ScribbishWP theme files from a backup. http://geek.pittcrew.org/posts/2005/09/vsip-event-at-dodger-stadium/ Tue, 13 Sep 2005 15:55:33 +0000 http://geek.pittcrew.org/posts/2005/09/vsip-event-at-dodger-stadium/ The company I work for, SPI Dynamics, is a Microsoft VSIP partner. The Visual Studio Integration team from Microsoft held a special partner-only tailgate party last night at Dodger Stadium with tickets to the Los Angeles Dodgers vs. Colorado Rockies game. I’m not a sports fanatic, and being from Atlanta I’m definately not a Dodgers fan (Go Braves!), but sitting in the second row of the field level just inside the right field foul pole was a pretty cool experience even for a geek. http://geek.pittcrew.org/posts/2005/09/heading-to-pdc-05/ Fri, 09 Sep 2005 09:50:08 +0000 http://geek.pittcrew.org/posts/2005/09/heading-to-pdc-05/ Next week I’m heading out to Los Angeles for the Microsoft Professional Developers Conference. I’m sure I’ll learn about a lot of cool new technologies that I won’t be able to take advantage of yet, but hopefully I’ll at least be able to find some time when I get back to blog about a few of them. http://geek.pittcrew.org/posts/2005/09/new-tech-blog/ Thu, 01 Sep 2005 13:54:09 +0000 http://geek.pittcrew.org/posts/2005/09/new-tech-blog/ My name is Kenny Pitt. Very few people have ever heard of me, and I don’t expect that to change just because I started a blog. I’ll probably lose interest in this after a month or two and stop posting, but who knows? I created this blog for all the geeky, technical stuff that nobody over on my family blog is going to want to read. It’s a place for me to capture links to cool applications, useful technical info, occasional thoughts about programming, and maybe even a code snippet or two.
