Finally I got to re-rack and power up the servers after the move (that’s another post!)
Obviously being offline for a few weeks meant that there were updates to be applied.
One nice update that was available is the new version of WPG2 – the integration of WordPress and Gallery 2. The project is here http://www.wpg2.org/
WPG2 was updated to version 3.0.6 – which integrates with the new security model (password hashing) of WordPress 2.5. The update has been a few months in the works – kudos to ozgreg and the rest of the hackers on getting this out of the door.
I did the double upgrade to WordPress 2.5.1 and WPG2 3.0.6 – and so far everything is looking great on the main family blog site.
I’ll let this sit for a few days – and then update the other sites.

At last – back online. Posts from the technology side of the move coming soon.

One thing that was new to me was the number of ‘internal’ promo videos made by each Microsoft BU. There seems to be a real drive to fill headcount by recruiting and poaching enocuraging people to move across.
During my New Employee Orientation (NEO) this was one of the better videos – for Entertainment and Devices (E&D). It’s pretty good; made better by the use of a cover of Girl from Mars by Ash. (Takes me back to the early 90s!)

I’ll keep updating this.
Tracks of the weekend so far:
The Ting Tings – That’s Not My Name (Tom Neville Remix)
Goldfrapp – Ooh La La
Happy Mondays – 24 Hour Party People (Jon Carter Remix)
Colin Meloy – lead vocalist of The Decemberists – live
Durutti Column – Sketch for Summer
Ah – Colin Meloy is playing in Seattle on our first weekend up there. What are the chances of a late pass with no babysitter?
The Durutti Column track is from their first album “The Return of the Durutti Column” – I first got a copy of this over twenty years ago on cassette. My only CD copy is on disc 1 of the FAC400 Palatine 4 CD compilation.
