Today is a big day for my blog. I will be entering 3 or 4 new entries today. I've held off for a few days posting anything because I'm antisipating a server upgrade to ColdFusion 8. Why am I holding off posting blog entries you ask?

CrystalTech, the hosting provider of my web site, has stated that their intermediate plan, the one I have right now, will no longer support MySQL 4 or MSSQL. Only MySQL 5. My database is currently version 4. It's no big deal to move to version 5, but they will have to delete my current database and then I will have to recreate (move) my old data to the new database. I put a backup on my local drive to migrate with but if I put in an entry and miss a backup, I'll lose some data.

Any ways, the rest is jibber jabber. The important thing is that my site is moving to ColdFusion 8 so I can start doing some cooler stuff and making some tutorials and such that actually work. I think I'll start with the new cfimage tag in few days.

For now I'm trying to figure out a way to put those video tutorials I promised on my site. After looking into actually putting them on and the amount of space and such that it would take, I had to find another solution because I could only fit about 40 ten minute videos with my amount of space. I needed more space for the same price. So I'm thinking about just uploading them to Youtube and linking here. The only problem is that I would have full control and what if they changed something or deleted them or something. So I'm thinking still.

Keep that up, I mean about the multiple entries daily. I guess one needs blogs like this to hold on one’s own in the information arena. About the video tutorials, what is the issue in posting them, can you explain? I mean, other than the price issue limiting your numbers of course…I think the Youtube idea is great, I have seem some other bloggers do it the same way. I hope to keep a watch and make a point when you have moved on to Cold Fusion 8 and not before. It seems pointless to talk about things that aren’t really there.
