Why is this a bad thing you ask?  Well, I’m sure you’ve heard the term spyware yes?  Spyware is a wonderful little thing who’s blame can be entirely put onto Internet Explorer 6.  The security of IE 6 is horrible.  You can get spyware installed on your system simply by visiting a web page.  You will never even see that it just got installed.

So, unless you are like me and started using Firefox (www.getfirefox.com), upgrade your browser already!  Not only is it more secure, it also makes my job a lot easier.  (coding for IE 6 is a pain in the ***)

Not sure what version you are using?  Simply click Help on the IE menu atop your browser window, then click About Internet Explorer..  It will give you the version number.  If it doesn’t say version 7 then you need to upgrade.  You can do so here.

Wordpress is installed. The wordpress theme you see is from themes.wordpress.net. I spent all of about 2 minutes finding it. Someday I’ll do my own but it is way way way down there on my to-do list. Just too busy. I appreciate designers sharing their templates. Thanks to Bob for this one. You can find his link on the bottom of this site.

Now its time to setup the plugins area. This being the reason to create this site.

Update:  Well, I’ve spent a few hours throwing some content in.  I’m pretty happy with this.  I’ve tweaked the theme ever so slightly.  So in about 5 hours I went from no site to pretty much fully done site and ready for me to manage on a weekly basis.  Not too shabby.
