Redundancy is not always good
The problem with my media files aka as pictures not showing up when I post now, is of course, my fault. When I changed my domain, I ended up with two directories for this blog instead of one.
That was fine until I fixed the redirect. And now it is redirecting to the wrong place. And I’m not quite sure how to fix it without bringing the whole thing down. Nice.
This time I learned my lesson and instead of mucking about for three hours, just sent an email to Bluehost support.
I deleted my old geekthoughts domain, my failed experiment, if you will. I didn’t like the model, which I set up as recommended by some blogger expert whose name I cannot remember at this moment. It got traffic and comment, none of which proved useful to me in real life. So, off with it’s head! Well, not exactly, I let it die a slow death of abandonment and just now got around the deleting it a year later. It was a good experience though, reminded me I still know how to write deeply geeky stuff and did use it as a resume of sorts for a while.
In spite of my three hour foray into wtf is wrong with Bill’s redirect, I managed to get almost everything checked off my to-do list today. I should work in cafes and libraries more often.
