Should I put up a music section to my web site
I have posted a few mp3’s I have recorded of my playing my tin whistle, and chances are high that I probably will be posting more mp3 of myself playing. The question now is should I just keep putting links to the new mp3’s on my blog or should I put up some more php[…]

Sorry about the lack of posts with content
I have been busy as of late, so I have not had any really good posts to put up as of late. But in the next few days I will be putting up a major post.
The test failed
I was hoping that the anti-spam things I had put in place would have alowed me to stop blocking IP address, but I was getting more then 100 spam comments a day so I had to reblock all the address I had blocked before, I am sure glad I had backed up my .htaccess file.
