Fixed the issue with the drag and drop upload on firefox. I didn't realize it was happening or I would have fixed it earlier.

You can now use the SSL version of estrip.org if you are somewhere sketchy or don't want people snooping on your activity. Godaddy had a good deal on SSL certs so I bought 5 years worth for estrip.org for $65. This doesn't mean that I don't want to fulfilll my dream for making a buffalo based free and local SSL provider. But for the prices of $12.99/year I could not beat it. It also helped that vimeo and youtube both now have https services. Previously that was always an issue with SSL and blogging.

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.
