Backtracking on Typo

Inbound and outbound trackbacks are supposed to be working on Typo. And from what I’ve seen, Inbound trackbacks don’t seem to have any issues. However, from the online admin I can’t even find a way to put in Outbound trackbacks! On a post in the Typo mailing list, someone said that using a third party Blog poster/editor (like the one I’m using: w.bloggar) you are able to submit those Ping/Trackback links. I ran a test and it does seem to work, but I still think it’s kind of foo bar.

Also, I just saw that in the Typo Wishlist that they do mention “Make trackbacks work.” Very confusing. Enough dirt on Typo, I still like it quite a bit!

Not so polite tips from Bob Parsons

In the Era of Blogging Executives, we have Bob Parsons from Go Daddy (I wonder how that name got picked?!) also doing his own. I’m far from a fan, but found the Time Saving Tips post a good read. I can relate to a lot of the stuff mentioned, specially when it comes to the phone calls part.

What is interesting as well is the feedback given by the readers, most in outrage about the rudeness of it all. I guess you have to balance everything, but the point is good on saving time.

Invierno 2005

I’ve now been in Mexico for a few days now. Christmas is a great time to be here! We spent Christmas Eve at my in-laws, we’ll probably do the same for New Year’s. And soon after we will pick up my parents at the airport. After a few years of not being in Ensenada, I’m certainly surprised how in the big picture not much has changed.

Diego and Jimena are having a great time and adapted rather quickly to the climate. Regina and I are still struggling a little bit.
