Snowulf Mobile lives again!

This past week or so has been pleasantly quiet for me at work, so I’ve actually had some time to myself. Additionally, I managed to spend a fair amount of time on the blog this weekend, both writing and doing miscellaneous site maintenance. One of the site maintenance related items was the discovery that the [...]

Snowulf returns from Hiatus, now totally unscheduled

Snowulf has been off the air for more than a month and change now. The hiatus was a bit impromptu and mostly based around the fact that I’ve been too busy to write much. Now that life is settling down back down to its normal level of insanity, I thought it was about time to [...]

Busy playing PlanetSide 2/Holiday Hiatus

Jon and I are both busy playing PlanetSide 2, which launched recently. It is free to play. If you haven’t tried it, why haven’t you? If you are curious about starting, but want some intel, check out this reddit filled with tips and tricks. Also, Snowulf is taking a hiatus for the holidays. See you [...]

Jon’s Moving; No post this week

See you next week!

John’s gone on vacation, English slaughter time!

We’ll call this post a PSA. As of today, John is off on this crazy thing called a “vacation” (aka Fleeing the country). As he is the Master Of English around these parts, we’re throwing a little party while he’s gone. The party is where Lauren and I slaughter the English language for shits and [...]

A wild author appears… introducing Lauren!

Since time immemorial (or at least 2005) I’ve been writing here on Snowulf. In 2007 John joined Snowulf as a “guest blogger”, but very quickly ascended to his rightful place as master of the English language (AKA Editor). For the last 5 years it’s been just him and myself, and while we’ve done decently, as [...]

Best of Snowulf 2011

Before Christmas John suggested to me that we should have a “best of” post for the year. For some reason. we’ve never thought to do this before. I thought it was a fantastic idea and embarked on the project post haste. Since we’ve never written one of these before, I figured I’d wing the format [...]

Weekend Server Overhaul

In early 2010 I signed up and migrated to Linode.com for my server needs. At that point in time, the latest version of Ubuntu that was offered was 9.10; the only useful colo location was Dallas; and IPv6 was unheard of (well, not exactly unheard of, but having a server with IPv6 was). We’ve had [...]

Houston, We have WordPress

If you are seeing this, you probably realize things look a bit different around the blog. Not terribly different, but different none the less. It is slightly more than changing the theme this time, though I managed to find one that was close to what it previously was. Today’s change is slightly bigger. We’re running [...]

Another day, another server migration

Sometimes I feel like all I do in my job and personal life is shuffle data around from one location to another. Last week it was re-installing Windows 7 on my two daily-use machines. This last weekend it was completing a server migration. Of course, I had just completed a migration 4 months ago. To [...]
