• New Design: What Do You Think?

    05.02.08 | Site | 1 Comment | by junger

    If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!

    You've probably noticed a couple of things different around here: a brand new design!

    (RSS readers, you'll have to click through to see what the site looks like now.)

    The old design had been with the site pretty much since Day 1 and I figured it was time for a change.

    So, what do you think of the new design?

    Please let us know with your comments. Your advice is always appreciated!

  • Site Changes: New Design Coming

    We've been hard at work coming up with a new look and feel for the blog, which will hopefully launch Wednesday or Thursday.

    There's still a few things left to be done, but stick around — there're some changes coming!

    Thanks for your continued support.

  • New Web Host for the Online Savings Blog

    02.01.08 | Site | 0 Comments | by junger

    Just a quick update before the weekend: I've moved hosts!

    The Online Savings Blog is now being hosted by Media Temple, which should improve performance and eliminate a bunch of heavy traffic issues.

    If you see anything funky with the site, please let me know! Moving Wordpress is easy, but I can't guarantee I didn't miss anything. (Wow, nice double negative.)

    Have a great weekend!

  • What's Going On With the Site?

    Sorry for the problems with the site, recently. Wordpress was having some database problems — some plugins were overloading and not everything was up to date.

    Apparently, some worm was being propagated on my host's server because of some out-of-date software, causing the site to go down for a day or so.

    Everything has been updated, though, and I've actually re-installed Wordpress to make a cleaner database.

    Hopefully the site should be working fine for you. If you notice any problems, please let me know.

    On a side note, I'm considering a new Wordpress theme — have any suggestions?
