Prometheus 6

All respect and no restraint

Daily open thread # 6 - No Cho Zone edition

One of the reasons I have NOT done some things recently is a series of technical problems at my web host. Feels like a hardware thing, and lord knows we don't want to be sinking any hard capital into a service business. That's why the site's been disappearing recently and there's no use starting things on an unstable platform. Problem is, this level of resources and control is a lot more expensive anywhere else. They'll do what they have to once theyh exhaust all possibilities, they just have to exhaust all possibilities.

Meanwhile the Afrospear crew is set up at wordpress.org.

Also (and for various reasons I'll take the hit for this myself) P6 is nowhere to be seen in Google. Nowhere. I haven't gotten a single Google referral all month. This does not disturb me, as traffic has not dropped off nearly as much as I thought it would...if my fucking server was stable I might be close to my pre-loss-of-Google-traffic levels and I'm not seeing the disgusting queries. Still, I have to concern myself with Google Analytics and sitemaps and shit I'd really just rather ignore as I write. It takes me out of my rhythm sometimes, all this switching back and forth.

Anyway. Right now I'm not feeling it so I'm taking the day off. I got this book, Nightwatch by Sergei Lukyanenko, that I bought on a whim a couple of weeks ago. Subject matter derivable from the title. I like the magical realism genre. Nothing In fact, I find it scratches the same itch I used to reach with an Isaac Asimov book...an easy read of some crazy shit I don't have to take seriously.
