Hello everyone,

It’s been more than a week since my last post at the beginning of this month as I logged an IT request to transfer my generationmechjournal.com domain to another new host. The impact of this transfer would mean any new post I try to blog during the first week of this month will be zilch-out! So no point having to carry on blogging while the transfer was taking place….

But now! The wait is finally over! GMJ’s finally moved to a new home! I’m glad to say this week’s harrowing burden filled with anxiety and uncertainty for me has definitely lifted off my shoulders. I’m finally rest assured I got my peace of mind back that everything’s going back to normal ie my blogs, tweeter, subscription feeds, etc etc. Everything!

Those of you who commented on my blog posts during the transfer, will notice your comments are no longer there. I’ll do my best to address as much as I can during this transition as there may be similar incidents such as these do crop in the blog.

That’s what you get when you perform an IT change request. Somethings are bound to not work ’smoothly’ as the original setup during this move. If you’ve worked in IT as long as I have, you would understand where my cynicism is coming from. :)

Stay tuned. We’ll be in touch within a few days time!

Hmm.. Great.

Just when I was gonna make plans this evening to upgrade my Wordpress installation, I got a report from my web admin window that I’m already approaching the maximum capacity of my disk space capacity of 100 megabytes.  I was a bit stunned how on earth, I’ve managed to store this much after only just started blogging for a few months.  Until I figured out that I’ve been uploaded lots of images and media files that come with considerable sizes.  Which also means I am starting to get a lot more “resource-hungry” than before when comes to uploading media.

Oh dear.

What a interesting predicament.  Don’t think upgrading my blog would be such a good idea since upgrades do take considerable amount of my disk space.  Looks like I need to ‘upgrade’ my plans before my wordpress can have its own upgrade….

Just FYI everyone.

There’s been a new upgrade of Wordpress for a while, version 2.8. Currently, mine is on version 2.7xx.
The upgrade version has been out for quite sometime. Thought would be nice to start make the change…
I did an upgrade test on another blog and it turned out okay.

But I’m very anxious to do on the main site as the total file size is very huge compared to the test. And lately this afternoon, I seemed to struggling to get this upgrade process working. So I reckon t’s best to leave it till weekend when it’s much quieter…

Hope it’ll go okay. <Fingers-crossed>
