I just had a cool rushing internet session with Julian… learnt a lot of new stuff about blogpublishing, he recommended to install wordpress to my server, and showed me the options. Looks like its a bit more advanced than blogger/blogspot. I’m looking forward to trying out the new features.

Whilst installing wordpress on my webspace, I also found out that my hosting provider (Godaddy) has a lot more options nowadays than when I signed up 4 years ago. Like installing wordpress instantly from there, without having to do a lot of manual stuff. I also found the option for making subdomains Something which I tried to do a few years ago but couldnt figure out. Now the new blog will be visible on blog.christiaanleever.com, nothing there yet now though. Thanks to my intentions 4 years ago I made an account with SQL database possibilities, and I can host 10 blogs basically if I want. I also finally figured out how much webspace Im actually using on christiaanleever.com, only about 1GB, out of 10GB total. So thats cool. Im also only using 0.25% of my allowed bandwidth which is 300GB per month.

Later, Julian showed me Smashing Magazine which posts about photography, design, and lots of other random cool stuff to keep you inspired and busy. Only yesterday I had somehow stumbled upon Yanko Design which posts a lot of concept designs. Very cool and futuristic product design. Two sites that I’ve also added to my interesting links list to keep updated with their feeds.

Then as Julian was looking at Google Reader, a simple online RSS reader, I thought, yeah, Ive added all those blogs that Im following here to my google followers list, they should be in Google Reader too. I never used it before, but had a nice look at it and seems like a handy program if I ever have nothing to do… Like that ever happens

I think this morning just started out right. I had a dream that I was waking up and that it was a great morning, but then I really woke up, and felt good Started with photoshopping a drawing I made a while ago. I guess I felt creative.

Dont know which one I prefer. Which one do you like better?
