Comments on: Pardon our plainness http://thewordnerds.org/2007/02/08/pardon-our-plainness/ A podcast about words, language, and why we say the things we do Fri, 25 Jul 2008 02:20:33 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.5.1 By: Dave http://thewordnerds.org/2007/02/08/pardon-our-plainness/#comment-4524 Dave Sun, 11 Feb 2007 03:15:17 +0000 http://thewordnerds.org/2007/02/08/pardon-our-plainness/#comment-4524 Thanks for the feedback, Sandy. I'm glad to know it's working for you now. I hope this doesn't mean everybody will have to unsubscribe and then re-subscribe, but in case that's true, I'll do another main blog post before we post our next podcast next week. Moving servers is a nerve-wracking experience, I must say. I'm happy with our new company, BlueHost, but even a move to the best possible hosting service can be fraught with obstacles. My next goal is to restore the old look of the website. If all goes as planned, that might happen tomorrow (Sunday, February 11). Then I think everything will be back to normal, and I'll quit spending so much time working on my websites! Thanks for the feedback, Sandy. I’m glad to know it’s working for you now.

I know you're probably working hard to fix this; but just in case you thought it was already done, I thought I'd drop you a line. I'd hate to miss any of your podcasts!

It had to do with the code generated by podPress. I have updated podPress now, and all seems to be well. As always, I would appreciate feedback from anyone having any problem whatsoever getting our podcast. I hope to have our "look" restored in a few days. According to some weather reports, I may be home from school for a snow day or two next week, so I'll probably hack away during some of that time. The <a href="http://forum.thewordnerds.org" rel="nofollow">Word Nerds Forum</a> is working fine, and has now been protected from spambot registrations. If you are a human and you want to register for the forum, you'll just have to answer a simple visual question. The iTunes problem is apparently solved.
