Site-related news… upgrades, modifications, announcements, etc.
Don’t mind this entry. This is a test entry for this new plugin#[1] I’m using.
[1]: The plugin is called Bö
I’m also trying to hack it while testing… make it a bit more similar to how Daringfireball‘s footnotes behave… and of course provide some CSS tags to skin it.
We’re headed for Singapore this weekend. I’ll be back on Monday.
It’s a bummer I don’t have a camera with me since I plan to just do some sight seeing when I get there (because I focused on shopping the last time I went). But now that I don’t have anything to document it with, I guess I’ll just look for some cool stuff to buy.
Ok now I’m testing Ecto to post once more. According to MovableType.org, the internal error problems have been resolved by their own developer working with the DBD::MYSQL author to resolve the problem.

Recently I’ve been experiencing erratic behavior of my weblog. I’m getting strange errors that don’t tell me what the hell is happening.
I post something, and get an error, but when I check back, it has been posted. I try making test posts and they go fine. Then when I make lengthier ones, sometimes they publish, sometimes they don’t.
Given the symptoms I’d gather it was a plugin conflict since it seemed that the text is the one that decides wether it freaks out or not. But strangely enough, when I kill the text parsing plugins, the same error occurs.
I searched the web and found out that there are a lot of similar cases… exact cases to be precise. The kicker is, that this all happened within the past week. And people have been tracing it to a cPanel (which is a type of administration/interface system used by most webhosts nowadays). Apparently, there’s been an “update” to some modules and they broke MovableType, and now the whole MT blogging world (myself included) have severely crippled systems because of these upgrades.
I hope this is resolved soon.
Taking my cue from Third’s blog, I visited South Park Studio and created a South Park version of myself (at least as of today).
