There is only one word to describe this experience: AWESOME. We took quite some fotos and some video footage, which I’ll try to compile here as soon as possible. Here you can see some of the pictures Alex took, for a start.

Drine http://s314884706.onlinehome.us/?p=5 Some of you might have noticed that my page was showing some fancy error page for a while.Screenshot of placeholder for my unavailable homepage This was actually my very own mistake – who would have thought that. ;-)

It was one of those really classic and completely unnecessary mistakes when deleting files in a Unix command shell while being logged in as root user. Oh well. At least it reminded me upon canceling the contract for my virtual private server and go for a good old standard web-hosting package instead. All the manual updating of services kept on being more annoying than benefiting, especially since my interest in programming web applications is gone since two years or so.

So now here I am, configuring this WordPress instance, waiting for my domain to be transferred to 1&1 and mocking up first content.  In the future you will not just be able to expect a simple blog about my life in Iceland (and the country in general) but even more so a series of articles about software development as well as tips, tricks and answers to general programming question.

On to a nice future with the next revision of my website. :-)
