Working again

I’ve been out of town again, and when I’m in town I’ve been distracted with a few things that have pushed brewmanager to the back burner again. Tonight I’m back in force and ready to get started on it again. The layout is still pretty ugly, but its serviceable to make sure I’ve got the back end working the way its supposed to. My current plan is to look into why things fail when we are running at dreamhost but they work when I’m running them on my laptop.

So… off to it then.

Todays progress

I took this afternoon off work because its slow. Thats a nice change fwiw. I got a chance to get much of the stuff needed setup on dreamhost. I’m using Google Apps for email, that was super easy to setup. Good for those guys. Once again Google pretty much proves they are the bees knees when it comes to these things.

I got the boiler plate webpage up that says “hey I’m going to build something”. I hope to have recipe creation up by the end of the weekend. I’m going with the release early and often approach I think.

In more exciting news, for me at least. I got subversion up and running on a host outside my house. So now it runs on dreamhost. Hopefully I’ll get bugzilla installed and I can stop making notes to my self via google docs.

So far I’m liking dream host a lot. I’ll put up some intelligent and organized thoughts about why I switched over from godaddy hosting later.

Making progress on the hosting front

I’ve got the blog moved from the old site to the new. It involved all of clicking export and then import, but still I fell proud of myself.

Two problems solved

I registered a new domain tonight, and I guess we will change the name of this thing. It will be brewmanager.com now (DNS probably hasn’t propagated yet). If you know what I do for my day job it’s kind of a fun name. I also changed the hosting to dream host (but haven’t’ moved anything over yet). They seem to have a better deal for more or less the same money.

I’ll move this blog over and send out an upudate via RSS when it stops working. For the nearish future everything will still live at beersessions.com and the blog will redirect to the right place.
