Humphrey Fire Dept Practice Burning and Updates

First, I think I should put in a plug for exchange hosting. I got exchange 2007 up after deciding to get a bigger server and host a few more people.  Exchange 2007 is a bit more bloated but has nicer spam fighting features and has a much nicer interface in browsers like firefox.  I’m still looking for a few people to help me pay for the server.  I put all the details on codecall in this thread: http://forum.codecall.net/hosting-registrars/18780-exchange-2007-email-hosting-offer-personal-server-looking-4-more-people.html.  If you’re interested, feel free to drop me an email :)

Now onto the rest of my blog (and the main reason why I’m even blogging)

I really think its time I take the time to update other parts of my site.  My blog gets a lot of my attention because it is fun to write when I get a chance to write about stuff I care about!

Lets start with why am I taking this sudden initiative to update the rest of my site.   A few days ago, I was talking to John who has a low page rank (PR) on his blogging site at johnciacia.com.  John wants to increase his PR.  I currently have a much higher rank than he does but I’d like a higher rank too.  Higher PR means more popularity and higher search rankings for common key words.

Why would I want a higher PR?  Higher PR means my popularity will go up on search engines and I will get more traffic to my site.  I really want to get 10,000 people reading my blog within a few years.  I feel this is a very obtainable goal because I tend to write 2 to 3 very technical articles per month that aren’t easily obtainable elsewhere on the web.  I constantly find the Microsoft knowledgebase is insufficient at helping me fix my own problems, so when I come up with a solution elsewhere, I tend to post it either here or on Adminreference.com.  I have looked back on AR quite often to find my own solutions to recurring problems due to corruption, etc.

Now time to move onto my photo gallery

I finally got around to putting a few photos up from the same old photos forever.  I have yet to filter out the spam comments, but they will go eventually.  Within the next week or two, I plan on posting a few of my nature photo galleries that I’ve kept on my computer now for quite some time.  These include a fox that comes to our house quite often and a rare shot of baby skunks.

Anyways, I would like to point your attention to my latest gallery: http://famousphil.com/gallery/?level=album&id=4 (You can get to this from the main page by clicking the photos navigation link).  This is of a practice barn burning for the Humphrey Volunteer Fire Department (no website available).  Our Fire Department is very small and right down the road from us.  We had a barn on our property that was falling down and we felt it was time to burn it before someone got hurt in it from beams falling, etc.  Anyways, I got a few really cool shots and thought I’d share them :)   Look forward to more nature photos in a few days.
