In case you’re wondering, Chappie and I are still alive, despite reports of our recent demise. We’ve just been busy working on other things this week, and plan to return to regular blogging within the next couple of weeks.

by Matthew Smith · August 3rd, 2007 · No Comments
After successfully meeting the majority of our goals for July, we’re adjusting the focus slightly for August. This month, we’re going to focus on getting a redesign and the completion of a new project. Thus, for the beginning of the month, you will see fewer posts here.

Goals for July: Record Number of Visitors and Profuse Writing

Ladies and Gentlemen, I’d like to introduce Michael “Chappie” Chappell, the newest addition to the writing talent at digivation!

Site Broken, Now Repaired

Notice: When upgrading to Wordpress 2.2, disable all plugins before beginning the upgrade.
This vital piece of information was ignored, and resulted in an unaccessible back-end for around a week (mainly due to my own laziness). However, all is well now.

by Matthew Smith · March 6th, 2007 · No Comments
For a while I’ve been using Google Analytics to keep abreast of my site statistics. I recently discovered (and registered with) reinvigorate. First, second, and third impression? I like it a lot! I’ll elaborate later.
