Any regular readers (if I have any left) will have noted a slight drop in the posting frequency here. This is mostly due to my new job. The job is great, doubly so because it comes after almost a month of no job, which is no fun at all when you have a wife & 3 kids. The down side to the job is that I am now having to commute over an hour each way every day, which leaves little time for much else 
The job is a bit of a change in direction for me. It’s still a web job, but it’s exclusively .NET (well, there’s a little legacy ASP, but anyway). This is a big change for me, as almost all my prior work has been PHP/Perl based. I’m liking the change, no anti-Microsoft bigotry here, C# is a damn fine language (even if it’s fineness has been largely pilfered from C, Perl and Java). It’s also a change in environments, as the role is the webmaster of the Drive.com.au site, which is part of Fairfax digital, Fairfax being one of if not the biggest publisher in Australia. I’ve never really worked in a major corporate environment; it’s been agency stuff mostly. But FD is a great place to work, non-formal environment, friendly people and most importantly, our own espresso machine!
So for the time being, all WordPress Plugins are on hold, this unfortunately includes bug fixes. I will get back to it once my schedule has settled down and I get a stable routine going, but for the time being, duty calls…
Wow, congrats Glenn! Sounds like a cool gig. What happened to Liquorice? All the best settling in!

Cheers on the job! What do you do to pass the time during your commute? Podcasts? Music?
Reading mostly, I haven’t been able to convince my wife that an MP3 player is an essential item yet

And i supose i am to deduce that having no job for a while would have been loads of fun for you if you could have just gotten rid of us!
And regards your comment, sure you can have a MP3 player darling, just as soon as you get me a house!
