I don’t even know how to begin to talk about everything that’s been going on since the last time I’ve written here. My buddy got married. I’ve dealt with server issues (again). I’ve been promoted. Some stuff I can’t even talk about!

I’ve written since Matt and Suzanne were married, but I’ve yet to write about it. I was the best man, so I guess I’d be as good as anyone to say something about their wedding. It was a beautiful wedding. Matt and Suzanne are a great couple, and it’s been awesome to watch their relationship grow to what it is today. I’d do just about anything for those two, and I couldn’t be happier for them now.

I was promoted to Product Manager of MemberFuse lately too. If that sounds serious, it’s because it is. I’m the one in charge of the direction that product will take. I’ve recently gotten pretty hooked on what ning is doing, and I’m considering using them as a platform for MemberFuse. We’ll see if Sterling and Derek will buy into the concept, but I’d rather not re-invent the wheel.

Server problems…. Grrrrrrr……

Last Thursday, I noticed all of the sites on one of my servers were down. I tried to remote into the server, but I couldn’t. So I RDP’d to another server on that network and performed a remote restart. The only problem was, the server wouldn’t restart. I had the client ship me the server, and after a couple hours of tinkering it was apparent that someone had sabotaged the server.

That’s a long story, that I’ll probably write about later. The short version is: it’s fixed, and I’m using WordPress now. For those of you who had left comments before, they’re gone now. I’m really sorry about that :/ The client’s sites are going to take some time to get back to full capacity, but I should have the base of it done tonight.
