RVO housekeeping: Stories from a DNS migration
What the heck happened? Well, we moved the site to a new host about 24 hours ago and since navigating the world of DNS changes is not an easy one for the expert – it does not come with a step-by-step guide – novices are lucky to keep their heads above water.
Read MoreNew website theme for Radio Vice Online
New theme implemented today, but there are definitely more tweaks needed. Might take a few days to flush everything out so please be patient. Note the placement of the pages, they are now at the top left of every page. On the home page, the sub-menu under the Radio Vice Online logo provides you with…
Read MoreNew Radio Vice Online look for smart phones
We’re experimenting with a new view for those of you visiting the site using your smart phone. You won’t see it unless you access the site with your iPhone, iTouch, some Blackberries, Android, or the Palm Pre, but if you do visit using a mobile device, you’ll see a very streamlined look.
Read MoreRadio Vice Online moving servers – yet again
As you may have noticed, we’ve had some Web server issues here at Radio Vice Online for the past six days. After a total failure (in my opinion) of a “migration” last Wednesday night, I elected to go with a new Web host. After testing on Monday, most of the files and the database were…

Read MoreRadio Vice Online home page format change
Slight change in formatting as you may have noticed on the home page. We’ve removed the featured content gallery (the big picture that scrolled through the items in the Featured category) and replaced them with a standard listing. We had some people note that although it looked cool, it was tough to read and keep…
Read MoreBlogging activity level through Nov. 7
Just a note that I’m covering for some people on vacation for the next two days, and next week I will be in a training class that will require long commutes each day. I’ll post when I can, but activity will certainly be limited.
Read MoreMy blogging activities
My blogging activities have expanded a little the last couple of weeks. I’m now a guest blogger over at Jim Vicevich’s Radio Vice Online site. This does not mean that I’m blogging any more than I used to, just spreading the wealth a little bit. My personal goal is to provide one or two posts…
Read MoreHousekeeping scheduled this week
OK, it’s not really scheduled, but it will happen at some point. I’m going to be updating my theme to the newer version that has some additional functionality and is a bit cleaner. The changes will happen within the next seven days and you may notice that the home page and article pages look a…
