Structural Changes
In an effort to make our public face and outreach activities easier to manage, we are currently changing some of our tools.
Current Situation
Official Blogs include this one (using WordPress software), and several others hosted using B2Evolution software. The B2Evo software, even though it has the same ancestor as WordPress, is a mess to work with. Many times we have only part of the administration pages–for days at a time–or it is full of PHP error messages (or even worse, “HTTP 500: Internal Server Error” messages).
Changes
We are moving our B2Evo blogs to Pivot and Nucleus. In either case, we have to configure the software and set up themes and widgets, plus import any content that is coming from the old B2Evo blogs.
We also intend to get deeper into covering local events–we live here and we want to ensure that things work better for local residents–and businesses.
Times have been slow at my main employer, but business has been slow to pick up apart from them as well. I will be looking for a temporary position so I can pay the bills while we weather this time period. If you are aware of Linux/BSD-related positions in the Victor Valley/Barstow, Palmdale/Lancaster, or Inland Empire (San Bernardino/Ontario/Redlands/Riverside/Rancho Cucamonga) areas, please forward the information to me: huckstech [at] webconnectconsulting [dot] com.
