			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A few weeks ago, we were offered a 75% discount for our own slice of cloud computing via <a href="http://www.slicehost.com/" target="_blank">Slicehost</a>, a sister company of <a href="http://www.rackspace.co.uk/" target="_blank">Rackspace</a>. We basically get a cloud server with a Linux distro on it, 256MB of RAM, 10GB of storage 100GB of bandwidth, and the complete freedom (almost) to do pretty much anything on it.</p>
<p>Considering the price and the freedom, I decided to go ahead and dive in as our workload these days is pretty much none. This would give me something to play with aside from the PS3 whilst at work. At the same time, this would teach me a few more things about Ubuntu (the Linux distro I choose), managing an actual web server and hosting a website, things I learnt back in school but never put into actual practice.</p>
<p>With all the guides available, setting up a website running of wordpress was pretty easy and I guess it is about time to share it to the world.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ve been maintaining blogs on <a href="http://stingeyes.livejournal.com/" target="_blank">Livejournal</a> (since <a href="http://stingeyes.livejournal.com/2004/01/20/" target="_blank">January 2004</a>), <a href="http://stingeyes.wordpress.com/" target="_blank">WordPress.com</a> (since <a href="http://stingeyes.wordpress.com/2007/08/31/sold-out-tickets/" target="_blank">August 2007</a>), and <a href="http://stingeyes.multiply.com/">Multiply</a> for quite sometime now, however, they all have exactly the same content. I doubt I would be killing anyone one of them off as I did with my <a href="http://www.geocities.com/sting_eyes/" target="_blank">Geocities website</a> which started back in <a href="http://www.geocities.com/sting_eyes/archives_april_03.html#website" target="_blank">April 2003</a>.</p>
<p>Speaking of Geocities and it&#8217;s <a href="http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/geocities/geocities-05.html" target="_blank">coming demise</a>, another thing I could do is migrate the old site over, just so I can preserve it online.</p>
<p>Going back to this <a href="http://www.stingeyes.com">new site</a>, I doubt it would host any new content as well as anything drastically different from my other blogs. I don&#8217;t really have a passion for one exclusive thing nor a niche in some kind of field.</p>
<p>Hence sticking to the blog title, Perfecting Loneliness, which again is one of my favorite <a href="http://www.last.fm/music/Jets+to+Brazil" target="_blank">Jets To Brazil</a> songs.</p>
<div style="width:300px;"><object width="300" height="110"><param name="movie" value="http://media.imeem.com/m/B9b21-dORk/aus=false/"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://media.imeem.com/m/B9b21-dORk/aus=false/" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="300" height="110" wmode="transparent"></embed></object>
<div style="background-color:#E6E6E6;padding:1px;">
<div style="float:left;padding:4px 4px 0 0;"></div>
</div>
</div>
<p>With that said, I am hoping to post more creative entries as well as post with more regularity as I have been completely lazy these days. One thing though, extremely emotional content will stay in Livejournal as it was designed for.</p>
<p>So, <a href="feed://http//www.stingeyes.com/feed/">add me up</a> on your RSS reader. You do have one, right?</p>
