Peoria Chronicle now on Facebook

Have you noticed that familiar logo on my sidebar? Yep, the Peoria Chronicle now has an official Facebook page, and you can become a fan! For those of you who live on Facebook, this is an easy way to be alerted whenever there’s a new post here on [...]

Peoria Chronicle now on Twitter

Another new thing for 2010 is that I’m now on Twitter @PeoriaChronicle. Follow me and you can be among the first to find out when new articles are posted and get [...]

New year, new theme

For 2010, I thought I’d change to a new WordPress theme. This one is called “Atahualpa” and I think it’s more readable than the old theme. Plus, it has a rotating header image, so each time you reload the page, you’ll randomly get one of five different images of Peoria. I’ll probably add [...]

Hi, how are you? Long time, no see!

Wow, I just realized after I published my last post that it has been over a week since I last posted to the blog. Did you miss me? Things have been busy at work, but my project is finished now, so I should be able to start posting again.

Did I miss anything this past [...]

Computer blues

All kinds of news, and no new posts on the Chronicle…. What’s going on?

Answer: Computer problems. My Dell Inspiron 1501 is on the blink. Lately, it’s been shutting off unexpectedly. Not shutting down — shutting off. One second it’s on, and I’m in the middle of typing something, and the [...]

Nothing to say

In case you’re wondering why there haven’t been any posts lately, it’s because I just haven’t felt like blogging. I don’t have anything I’m just dying to say. And besides, it’s so hot outside, my energy is sapped.

Hope you’re enjoying your summer. I’ll write again one of these days…. [...]

Peoria Chronicle turns four

I almost forgot to mention, my blog just passed another milestone. I started this little blog as “Summers in Peoria” on Blogspot way back on April 15, 2005. I later changed the name to “Peoria Chronicle” and set up my own WordPress site. I somehow lost all of my May 2005 posts in [...]

Chronicle down for server maintenance this weekend

I’ve been alerted by the company that hosts my site that the server the Peoria Chronicle is on will be down for maintenance for about two hours this weekend:

The server peoriachronicle.com is hosted on will be undergoing a hardware upgrade at approximately

11PM MST Saturday January 17th

We expect the downtime for the account to be 1-2 hours, [...]

New theme… maybe

You may notice that I’ve switched my theme. I’ve been using a WordPress theme called Wu-Coco for, oh I don’t know, maybe three years? I rarely fiddle with the theme on my blog since it can be disorienting, but I felt like maybe this January it could use some freshening up. So now [...]

Resolution

I’ve been on the precipice of giving up blogging completely, but in the end I’ve resolved to greatly reduce, but not eliminate, my little hobby. That will no doubt be a disappointment to some and wonderful news to others.

In the past, I’ve tried for the most part to put up at least one post every [...]
