About This Web Site
Apologies for any confusion, I just made the necessary change to switch the blog back to eastern standard time. Goodbye daylight. :-(
Today marks the third birthday of OrangePolitics. What might our fourth year hold for us? I have been considering some improvements in how things are run, but they will require more time and energy from more people to make it work.
Our blogging software, WordPress 1.5, is being stretched a little beyond its capacity. I'd like to consider moving to a more powerful platform, such as CivicSpace, which would make it easier for all readers to have their own blogs on the site, and add many other useful tools. (See BlueNC for an example of a typical CivicSpace community site.)
Sorry for the site being down so much of yesterday. It was particularly bad timing as several things came up that I wanted to post about including Madison and NextBus. Look for a few new items showing up this weekend and feel free to suggest better web hosting services...
OrangePolitics passed the 20,000 comment mark yesterday! (See counter in top-right of each page.) Here's an open thread, keep 'em coming...
