Although there was a sort of “mini” upgrade a couple of weeks ago, it certainly was not to the extent of upgrade early this morning for Javamancy the Weblog, Javamancy mini, and all of the other Web applications running at javamancy.com (that most of you don’t have to interact with, or even worry about!). Since the [...]

As many of you who happen to blog via WordPress are waking up to this, you may have noticed that WordPress 2.8.2 is now available for download/updating. Yep, that’s right: version 2.8.2. For those of you who have just completed your due diligence and your blog upgrades, this may be one of those “Gotcha!” moments [...]

A few days ago, WordPress 2.8.1 was released to the public with surprisingly little fanfare. In fact, for many bloggers, it seemed as if the auto-update message in their WordPress admin consoles did not trigger for a few days after the release. Regardless, this release has a lot of security-related bug fixes, and it is [...]

After the WordPress 2.8 release, there was a flurry of plugin and theme update releases as well, which in turn prompted our massive software overhaul here, for Javamancy the Weblog, Javamancy mini, and all of the other Web applications running at javamancy.com (that most of you don’t have to interact with, or even worry about!).

As some of you already know, Microsoft’s [MSFT] Xbox LIVE online service will be experiencing a major scheduled outage for maintenance purposes at 3:01 AM on Tuesday, June 16, 2009. The bulletins floating around about it, like from Major Nelson’s site, mention that the outage may be as long as twenty-four (24) hours (!!!), so [...]

Earlier, WordPress 2.8 was released to the public, and it was announced by Matt over at its development blog. Although this is considered a major release, with plenty of new features, a lot of these new items are associated with the admin console and improving the blog customization and management. Of course, in addition to [...]

A scant few days after the last major Javamancy update, it’s been updated yet again, just in time for June, no less… And it’s a biggie: the massive undertaking of relocating the URN for Javamancy to its native domain, javamancy.com, after its year-long test period at its parent DevPal domain, has completed with this Javamancy [...]

Javamancy has just been refreshed with a decently large system update (although smaller than the previous one from about two weeks ago). In addition to new security updates, Javamancy has also had the page images (the ones you see at the upper right hand corner) refreshed. There were also several sundry operational changes made, including [...]

Javamancy has just been refreshed with a fairly large system update. Fortunately for you, gentle readers, the updated Javamancy should not impact you in any dramatic manner. Please enjoy the shift in the background color, which has apparently appealed to the vast majority of you during the testing (also, thanks to several of you who [...]

At this point, several of you have already experienced the harrowing excitement surrounding the Apple’s [AAPL] OS X 10.5.7 update for Macs. Earlier today, I’d spotted the OS update on my MacBook White while traveling. I did not think anything unusual about it, since it was just started to make the rounds, and nobody had [...]
