Entry 1735

Dwight's brother is silly

I've been watching this for awhile and not saying anything. Well, Dwight is having a lot of problems with his brother's hosting service, and I just wanted to say that it's silly that his brother won't let him run MovableType. What's the problem?

From what I know, his problem was that MT isn't Open Source. It is open source (lowercase), mind you... just not Open Source (capital). Get over it, it's a license! He runs a web hosting company and he won't let people run programs?

By the way... the Flash blog is silly too Smiley

Yeah, I know the flash blog was not a great thing but it was damned good for the time that was given. The creator has come out with some great new versions, some of which are scripts which my brother also wants me to run through him, and other's are Windows centric. Now I have begun a Live Journal blog(see link below) and though I have found many annoyances, it will do until I hear back from the people at Blogomania who I emailed three days ago and resent today.

My brother's reason for not having looked at it is because it is not a priority since I am the only one who wants it. It is not big deal to me, as I will simply find a host who is a little more blog friendly. His reasoning is security, which is never a bad thing, but for blog hosting that is just too restrictive. I keep my main site on his server because I have no intention of running anything that needs approval, but the blog, I hope, will be back up soon at the normal location. I was half considering just uploading new blog posts on a once a day basis and blogging that way at geekblog.net, but decided I didn't like that way of doing things, after 4 posts using that posting method.
