If you wonder why there are quotation marks where there should be an apostrophe, you are not alone, I am as puzzled as you.
It started when I “upgraded” to Wordpress 2.5.1 and I started to get a couple of lines of php warnings before the blog proper loaded. I also couldn`t access the blog`s admin [...]
Yet another Google map test
0 Comments Published by August 19th, 2007 in GPS, Goldwing, Touring, WordpressThis time I have included the track as well as some photos. Pretty easy in fact. I used RoboGeo (running under Parallels as I use a Mac) to produce the code and simply put it on my server. It sits here in the blog in an iframe.
I am trying this neat tool to put maps into the blog (click on the box in the map entitled “Build Your Own Map” to go to the site that does it. Basically it lets you incorporate a live map from the “My maps” bit of Google maps, so it can include markers and data [...]
Just updated to 2.2.1 and as far as I can see, everything works as it should. It is always a bit nerve-wracking updating these dynamic sites, sometimes there is a problem and it can take ages to resolve. To be fair, I have had no difficulty yet with Wordpress and the plugins I have been [...]
Cover Ordered
0 Comments Published by June 12th, 2007 in Bits and Pieces, Goldwing, Touring, WordpressWell, the first item arising from my lessons learned is underway.

The stock seat suits me just fine and the heated seat and grips are very nice to have when it’’s cold.
The large information panel on my bike is great for reading without [...]
I was pleased to see that Dave had commented on this blog. Evidently Wordpress had alerted him to the fact that I had linked to his blog, he has kindly linked to this one but so far Wordpress has not informed me of that incoming link. I have also installed the latest version - 2.2 [...]
This is a test of posting using a Firefox extension. I wanted to try Scribefire but for some reason it is not working for me. I don't know if this is a clash between versions of FF and Scribefire or a Mac thing. Anyway, Deepest Sender seems to work OK for me.
I chose Wordpress for this blog having seen how flexible it appeared and also the wealth of themes and plugins around the net. Setting it up has mostly been a trouble-free experience, including making a few posts and adding a variety of plugins to do stuff like displaying photos. However, a couple of glitches have [...]
Another Goldwing owner uses Wordpress for his Goldwing Blog and it looks very smart so I thought I would give it a try. Installation could hardly be simpler, I wonder how usage will be and what it takes to develop a nice theme of my own? Basically, I like simple elegant themes - I [...]
