If you are seeing this entry you are visiting estrip on its new centos 6, kvm based virtual guest on the new server. It probably doesn't mean much to most people but it is an exciting step forward in technology for me. I was up till around 5am getting everything moved. I still have a few finishing touches but most functionality works as expected.

The way virtual technology works I shouldn't have to spend much time moving estrip in the future and migrating it to a new host should be trivial.

Someone plugged a high power dehumidifier into the same ups that the server was on and drained all the power. Should be okay now.

I fixed the signup bug. It was caused by a change to the USPS site that I was using to validate the zip codes. They changed the site and the validation wasn't working any more. Thanks for reporting it @heidi and Jolene.

Oops, I forgot to tell some of you there is in fact a new years 2012 party at the 24 (24 Linwood Ave). Its open invite, feel free to invite all your friends. Ball drop at midnight.

I updated the android app You can find it by searching the marketplace on you android device. The new version allows you to back out with the back button and return. I also saves the category, title, entry, pics selected when you leave the app without publishing so that you can come back to it as requested.

Don't forget about the Halloween party Friday, Oct 28th. 24 Linwood Ave, 14209. 9PM open invite.

Sorry its so late in the season to announce it, but we are having a Halloween party on Friday, Oct 28th. Feel free to bring whoever you want besides that one sketchy Chris guy, lol.

24 Linwood Ave 9PM.

It works again. You are welcome IE and Safari users losers.

1. Logins last 1 year from the same IP unless you explicitly log out or empty your cookies.
2. You can share blog entries with facebook, twitter, or email with links at the bottom of each journal.
3. If you scroll the front page in the latest firefox or chrome beta you see more comments and chat.
4. Clicking on pictures in blogs loads full size, if it exists.
5. Clicking use as title in topic idea box, transfers topic to title of new journal.

This might be helpful for those of you that type an entry and then accidentally refresh the page or click the back button before publishing. The site will now prompt you to make sure you want to leave.

The restore backup system is also still there, this is just an extra safeguard. You can test it by typing something in the blog publish box and then hitting the refresh button before publishing.
