The worst week of the year
Last week we moved Blomap to a VPS solution. What a nightmare, the set up of the platform Blomap is based on and the update of the database have been extremely complicated and the website went up and down continuously.
Well, my good hours were the hours when Blomap was up obviously and the terrible hours were when it was down.
It has been like seeing 2 years of my work and money and time investments collapsing into an infinite abyss.
Actually, the lesson I have learnt is: a disruptive technology can be a source of stress for whoever decides to run it So I need to practice sport to be fit and make my heart work well. In fact, I thought I could have a heart attack soon, but I did not, fortunately.
It has been my choice, it is what I want to do, what I need everyday. Not my food and drink, but my drive.
Social media are the future, I am in there and in the present as well.
Web-development and usability improvements
The web-developer completed only today the html link functionality for Blomap because he had holidays and other commitments. All usability improvements are pending. I have to accept the delay and let it accept to the team
