I usually have my writing juices flowing between the time of 11pm to 2am and quite frankly, the tap for the juices have started to trickle since a couple of weeks back and for the last few days, there wasn’t even a drop left!

Not that I have nothing to write though. I have views. I have opinions. But I realize that some point in time, I can’t really say what I need to say anymore on certain stuffs. The source for the tap of juices is still there but the filter on the tap end gets bigger. I then just write on the light hearted ones and peppering the posts with ‘WAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA(s)’ so that my readers will be entertained. And then I face another problem whereby I am seldom pleased to blog but rather, blogging to please.

Some may think that I am having PMS but I have yet to go for a sex change.

WAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAA!!!!

.

In any case, I will be back soon!

(Who knows! Maybe tomorrow!)

Only taking a break! Be back REAL SOON!

The very first popular blog that I came across was Xiaxue‘s back in the days when she was funnier and less commercialized(IMHO). Blogs at that time were a form of entertainment and a way to keep myself updated on my friends lives. Having a steady income back in 2005, I got a webhost and the URL ‘krisandro.com’ without going through what most bloggers go through; Having a free blogging platform like blogspot/wordpress/xanga and then realizing later that they want a self hosted blog.

It wasn’t my intentions to use it as a blog in the 1st place but I eventually hopped onto the bandwagon and started to write. I used dreamweaver/frontpage to design and code my blog and it wasn’t powered by any blogging platform. I don’t have any friends who had a self hosted blog during those times, and without the knowledge of blogging platforms for self-hosted blogs, you can imagine how stupid it was for the period between March 2005 to Feb 2008. I was basically coding everything manually like my archives.

LOL

My traffic back then was mostly made up of my ‘offline’ friends and colleagues and then I start to hear good comments that I was ‘funny’. I then started to write a little more frequently and got ‘tomorrow-ed’ a couple of times. Unfortunately, after migrating to wordpress, you guys won’t be able to see the old entries that I had before Feb 2008.

I had a very long blogging hiatus for a period of almost 6 months because of personal reasons and there are 3 reasons that made me come back to blogging in February this year.

#1 – Friends

KuKuNehNeh knew me better through my old blog archives and after we got together, she kept badgering me to revive my blog. Friends like DX, Ade and my WLNY pals also popped by every once in a while through my shoutbox and say things like…

“YOUR BLOG IS DEAD!!!”
*REMOVE COBWEBS*
“KRISANDO!!! COME BACK! I LOVEEEEEEEEE YOU!!!”

Okay, it’s obvious that I made the last one up but the point is, these people gave me the confidence that they would like me to write again.

#2 – WordPress

Seriously. Without wordpress, there is no reason for me to update my blog as often as I can now. Everything is great about the platform to the point that I only need to concentrate mostly on content, content and content. Well, in krisandro’s blog, it’s actually rubbish, rubbish and rubbish. But I know you guys like rubbish and rubbish is gonna stay!
.

#3 – Ping.sg

I don’t think the traffic for June can match the traffic of May though

Without Ping.sg, my blog’s growth would not have been what it is now. Nice folks do submit my works to tomorrow.sg every now and then but it is Ping.sg that gives me constant traffic. It’s also the folks at Ping who are very supportive of my blogging style and they make up a majority of the ones who leave comments whenever I post something up and it feels bloody nice to have people leave comments.

This is my 100th wordpress post, and I’ll dedicate this to the 3 reasons I mentioned and all my supporters, including those who are SILENT READERS. You know who you are.. (Cuz nobody else knows who you are…)

Hello my devoted readers! Yes, yes. readerSSS. With an ‘S’, because I am sure there are more than 2 of you. I hope…..

I just rummaged through my mails and found this from my hosting company

Dear Krisandro,

The time for our big Data Center move is quickly approaching and I wanted to give you another update as to how everything is progressing.

For those of you who signed up with us in the last few weeks, this will be news to you! Your websites are already hosted at our new data center, so you will not be affected by the move. Please take a look at my first announcement here:
Announcing The New Ecommerce Data Center

We’ve been very diligent in planning the move of our data center and we’re on schedule with all preparations. Our primary target date for the relocation of all servers is the end of next week: Midnight, Friday March 28^th. At that time, for a period of up to 48 hours, there will be service unavailability. It is not certain when your account will become unavailable or how fast it will come back up. Please allow ample time for us to make the move safely and securely.

I know I’m asking a lot of you and am truly thankful for your patience. You can expect significant service improvements with this move. It is likely that most accounts will only be down a portion of the allotted 48-hour window.

Once your site is up and online, you can rest confidently knowing that it is hosted in a brand-new high tech Data Center. With multiple large, ultra-fast connections to the Internet, a state-of-the-art power grid and redundancy systems and high-capacity cooling, the new Ecommerce Data Center is the place to be for your website, for years to come.

Krisandro, next week I’ll email you again shortly before the move – and I’ll have some inspiring pictures as to what your websites can call their new home.

Until then!

Kind Regards,
Faithi Said

I don’t know which time zone the “Midnight, Friday March 28^th” is referring to, but I hope the downtime won’t be that long!
