Is it still copyright 2007? If so, this is your friendly reminder to change it. Better yet, why not use a little bit of code that does it for you?

1. Copyright ©
2. < ?php // automatically update the copyright date each year
3. ini_set('date.timezone', 'America/New_York');
4. $startYear = 2000;
5. $thisYear = date('Y');
6. echo "{$startYear} - {$thisYear}";
7. ?> all rights reserved

You can get a list of timezones from the PHP manual.

Oh my… I don’t know what to say… At least Lorissa’s thief had the good sense to pretty much leave her design intact.

I suppose I’ll be going through the same process Lorissa did to have the content taken down. The dipshit is linking directly to my images and he’s hijacked my RSS Feed as well. Anyway, hat tip to Jon Norris from OnWired for the link to Copyscape, I had no idea such a service existed.

Update: The site was taken down and an apology was given. He told me it was “just for testing” though I don’t believe that for a second but hey, I’m cynical.

As you can see there’s a new design at the blog. I’m sure there are still some bugs and a few other issues that need to be worked out and I’ll find them as I go but here it is. I even posted a really bad photo of myself but I just can’t seem to find the motivation to fly to the UK to have Lorissa take my picture! Although I have to say even her fantastic photography skills can’t make me look very good. The best picture I ever took was one where I wasn’t facing the camera.

I’m toying with the idea of redesigning my business site some time in the future but am not horribly motivated at this point to do so. I do know that when I redesign it, it will not be in line with this design.
