  • Halffull Gear: Sarcastic Chic

    After a long and grueling staff meeting (and I use the words “staff” and “meeting” loosely here) most of the old items available in the halffull.org shop were killed and replaced with some of the nifty items you’re seeing over on the sidebar. Old items still include the ever offensive but popular Halffull Happy Bear.…

  • New Server, asmallorange

    Two important points today. I got a new web hosting provider, asmallorange, this weekend. I’ve tested everything I can think of on the site, and the only issue so far is that the database transfer wasn’t perfect – in some posts with double-quote marks, the right quote is replaced by a weird black symbol and…

  • Upgrading to WP 1.5

    I’m going to start working on upgrading the site to WordPress 1.5. I’ve made a lot of personal changes to the codebase that don’t particularly fit into a plugin, so I’m going to hope I can reasonably manage all the hand-merging. One thing I definitely do not want to do is leave the site in…

  • Importation

    I’ve been working on importing all the articles and comments from old halffull. Trust me… it’s a *huge* job. I could probably write a script to magic the SQL over, but it’s a one-time job and I wanted to fix up some of the text anyway. I may skip a few posts, so if anything…

  • Fresh Style

    I’ve been working on different styles for halffull most of the day (along with importing a lot of the old posts). You can switch styles via the menu bar on the right. I like them all, though my least favorite is probably Rainy; I’ve made a lot of improvements to Default – “the first bite…

  • Welcome to the New Halffull

    Welcome to the new halffull.org. It’s a work in progress at the moment, but I hope it’ll be a lot more elegant and functional for everyone (not to mention standards-compliant). In case you’re a new visitor, the idea behind Halffull is that anyone can feel free to post any opinions they like directly on our…

  • That time of year

    It’s that time of year again when I have to fork over some cash to keep Halffull on the web. I don’t want to sound like PBS or a hobo, but this year, you can help. The Halffull store has always been available for you to buy swank goods, but I’ve set up a special…
