Not one week after releasing the new theme to my own blog I’ve tried my hand at another theme. At work we are gearing up for the release of theCloud our hosted services platform and I had the pleasure of designing the blog theme that we are using for theCloud blog which was launched yesterday there over the next little while you will be able to find posts related to hosted services, cloud computing and other related topics. I’m hopefully going to try and squeeze in some posts about customising the software we have available through coding.

The main reason I have not been posting lately is because I’ve been in a bit of a funk where I haven’t had the motivation to work on any of my personal projects. With nothing new to show off I have had no real reason to make a post.

What is different with today you might ask? Well not a lot in relation to the lack of motivation to work, however enough semi-interesting – and one important – things have happened which together warrant me writing something.  Yesterday I finally upgraded to WordPress 2.8 any issues the site might be having will probably have been caused by the upgrade.  Last week I brought a HTC Magic (which runs Google’s android phone OS) I plan to do a post in the next couple of days about how the phone is working out for me so far.

Most importantly, a month ago I quit my job (that was the required notice I had to give) because I was approached with an offer I felt that it would be foolish of me to refuse.  Today was my first day at my new job working for LayerX, a small software company based here is Hamilton.  Like my last job I’m a software developer and I am looking forward to the oppurtunities that this new position has.  Due to this happening I finally got around to updating the about page, it still is not anything fantastic but at least it is up to date.
