The newest MT beta 3 revision is out and tff4.com has been updated. The upgrade has brought a more streamlined MT interface, as well as faster response when using the control panel and during rebuilding. MT 4.0b1 was quite sluggish, and the current revision blows aways 4.0b1 and the faster 3.3 version of the CMS by quite a bit. Comments have also been fixed, with new authentication methods added, so get to it. I still owe someone a post reviewing Adobe CS3, and it will come! However, I've been more concerned working on getting the back end and the future front end of tff4.com suped up... More to come on that later.

During the Apple WWDC 2007, I couldn't help wondering why the entire Apple Store was down. Speculation indicated this was all about software. And aside from the expected iPhone update, it was--in fact--all about software. Looking back, I'm surprised the whole site wasn't down. Tricksy Hobbitses, them Apples...

So... I made a hasty decision to upgrade to the MT 4.0 beta. Comments are broken on the front and back ends, and I have to access my links in the footer (which are managed via a separate blog) in a very roundabout way. Also, the site loads very slowly, for my static site pages, and for the admin pages.

Apparently lobotomized monkeys somehow time traveled from 1992 and gifted us with the 2012 London Olympic logo. And the IOC gave Chicago grief for theirs?
