So once more, development on an internal project hit a stumbling block. The latest release of Dojo, 1.3.1, has some bug fixes I'd like to use, and in general I like to keep my main project working with the newest dojo releases.

Why am I suddenly getting more spam? (Careful, rant ahead...)
One of our clients asks why she's suddenly getting more spam, and what we can do about it.
For a few years, she got no spam at all, and then suddenly she's getting upwards of 80 a week. What happened?

Black Vodka, a Finnish Sauna, and a Database
May 2009
As I got on the plane to Helsinki, I wondered if I had been duped. I was flying blind--I didn't know where I was staying, whether anybody would be there when I arrived, or if I would end up sitting in a hotel room by myself for three days. But when the well-known founder of a billion dollar company invited me to his home to help my business, I figured I'd better get on that plane.

Is Anyone Else Tw-ired of Twitter
I consider myself a pretty tech savvy kid, you may even call me a mid-term adopter of all things tech. But there is one project that has offended me more over the past few months that has finally pushed me to post a blog against it.

Ask Freelock: Shared hosting, managed hosting, dedicated hosting, what's the difference?
Ksenia asks, how difficult is it to move all our stuff from Media Temple to SliceHost? I want to be able to make changes on site any time myself.
