I'm thinking of brewing something
And it ain't coffee.
I just bought a domain name. My very own, fancy, shit-laced, shiny bling-of-a url. Trouble is, I don't know that much about domains and I don't know anything about DNS and nameservers and code tweaking so it will take a LOT of reading and research to pull this new idea off. I want to do this right the first time.
For so long, that's two years of writing stuff, I never had a central theme for my works. Topics spew forth from wherever and I see it as a pile of Lego pieces from 20 different Lego sets, like a bag full of assorted and unmatched socks.
The other Saturday, at Peter's, I heard him say something that triggered an interest in me. Something worth pursuing. A thing that I'm not alien to but that has much potential should it be given focus.
The new url will be my brand. It will mark everything I touch. The idea plays well inside my head but it will take away more of my time to take it to the level I have set for it. Hard as it is, I will try to take so as far as it would go.
I now have the brand. All it's lacking is the facade to face the public with.

i recently got one too! pero ako, zero idea how to run it :) i just grabbed the chance coz it was only selling for 10 dollars hahaha i dont know if i will ever get it started.
inspire me fritz! :) i wanna see your new "fancy, shit-laced, shiny bling-of-a url". hehehe
hope this helps..
go to your domain control panel and point www to ghs.google.com
on your blog (blogger, if that's what you're using), go to 'publishing' and write your domain (http://www.yourdomain.com)
*make sure it has the www coz it wont work if it's just http://yourdomain.com
and then just go to your domain control panel and forward http://yourdomain.com to http://www.yourdomain.com that way anyone who types yourdomain.com will be redirected.
if that doesn't work, then i dont know.
I hope I could put it up in the next couple of weeks. I've crazy work in the office and this thing I'm planning is like a major overhaul. I'm going to use wordpress, by the way, Paolo. The host has wordpress so that's one problem out of the way. All I have to do is make the "feel" right for the idea I have in mind.
Hey angel! Long time, oh fair maiden. Don't set high expectations here, alright? Hahaha! I'm pressured enough as it is. In a couple of weeks, hopefully.
Get wordpress, and then you can make your theme as girly as mine!
