Lighten up
Going through all of my data, deleting all the chaff. Going for less than 500 GB total data storage.
Cleaning up
Finally deleted all the cool unused placeholder Twitter accounts that I signed up for years ago. I will never use them.
Goodbye Dashlane
After several years with Dashlane, I’ve moved on to a simpler, better solution.
Moving on
After 10+ years, finally moved the last of my sites away from Media Temple.
Going forward
MUCH work to be done.
How it’s going
Watching. Waiting. Praying.
Plugin updates Fall 2020
Got all of my free WordPress plugins updated for imminent WP 5.6 in early December. Pro plugin updates currently in the works.
BBQ Firewall
7G Firewall now integrated into BBQ Firewall (free version). Pro version soon ;)
Big Sur
macOS Big Sur update complete. So far no crazy issues. Except TextEdit, which is completely screwed up and unusable. Replaced with free BBEdit.
macOS red dot
Got so sick of macOS’ annoying “red dot” that I had to remove System Prefs from the dock. Come on Apple you can do better.
nG on Nginx
Beginning development of an Nginx version of 7G Firewall.

Happy Birthday to Perishable Press, celebrating 15 years online! :)
The strategy
Hide in the basement and hope for the best.
Look ahead
Part of my success is from being able to look ahead down the road and see things coming before they actually get here.
Portfolio refresh
Spent some time refreshing my business portfolio at MonzillaMedia.com :)

I disabled AI in Google search results. It was making me lazy.
Went out walking today and soaked up some sunshine. It felt good.
I have an original box/packaging for 2010 iMac if anyone wants it free let me know.
Always ask AI to cite its sources. Also: “The Web” is not a valid answer.
All free plugins updated and ready for WP 6.6 dropping next week. Pro plugin updates in the works also complete :)
99% of video thumbnail/previews are pure cringe. Goofy faces = Clickbait.
