Good day, fellas! Finally the maintenance is done. Several things have been
done, some with success, some have not been successful. Short summary is
that I optimized the database once more so that the blog will load fast with
less delay. The video implementation is still not working as intended.

smart tags are of essential importance as the video smart tag is often used
and causing problems with other plugins.

out that most of my video posts are not properly viewable on mobile phones

trying to open the player.swf instead. also the iPhone can’t deal with FLV.

Hello people, my blog is back again. The downtime has based on the lack of
ability to process a payment for the webspace between two banks. After some
haggling and several phone calls, the two banks were finally able to process
my transaction without any unwanted surprises. Now I have peace for 1 year!

Fellow blog readers! I know you’re waiting for daily updates. But at the moment,
my smartphone is either on snail network or even having no network at all. The
