the URL problem – explained!
Posted on | February 12, 2009 | Comments Off
I dreamed of an elegant website, but as I have the technical skills of a cheeseburger cat, I struggled with even simple things, like permalinks! I had wracked my brain, thinking the URL gobbledegook could only be solved by fussing with the sub folders on my server side. Turns out WordPress had an answer for me and even allows me to choose (and customize) what my links will look like. Now I enjoy lovely hyphenated urls with pleasant little keywords!
I visited my friend’s blogs and apparently the did not have the problems I had in figuring out the permalink secret – They’ve probably had some time to research (lately I have not.)
Another thing I don’t have a lot of time for is twitter, which makes me very sad. You’ll notice in the iPhone post I stated that I can’t tweet because I don’t have an iPhone – this is one part that’s honest! Tweeting with a clunky Razr is a joke. Tweeting on the work PC could get me canned. Tweeting just once every other day from my laptop at home hasn’t brought me much followers. This isn’t working. I need an iPhone
Speaking of iPhones, until today I was winning the sales contest. Now I’m tied 1-1 with another guy in the group, and it’s giving me a sinking feeling.
I’m not happy with this. I want that iPhone. Plus, I don’t want that other guy to win.
