Another vendor bites the dust… the economy

Well I got a sad phone call, just a few days before Christmas.  One of my reps for perhaps my biggest vendor was on the line.  He was letting me know that the company he worked for shut its doors.

Quandry

I owe this company money for two jobs.  I’m not sure what the implications are so I’ll tuck that dough away and if they come calling I’ll have it ready.

Fuel prices

I’d be happy about gas prices, if I wasn’t in fear that I’d have no work soon.  I gassed up for $1.30 a gallon a couple of days ago.

PSB Upgraded

Pro Sound Blog is powered by WordPress, the best blog engine on this planet.  I’ve just upgraded to WP 2.7.  You may not see a difference in the front end, but I’m punching in a post to test the functionality and test out the back end features.

So far so good.

PSB on new server. Malicious code found.

Welcome to the new server.  I’ve had to move PSB and my many other sites to a new dedicated server.  Some of my other sites got way too big and needed their own space, not shared with any other sites.

So the good news is that since I’m able to post this blog, the site is running correctly on the new server.

Malicious code found

The bad news is that I found an encrypted bit of code in the config file here.  Some spambot had hacked in and put a bunch of junk in there.  That code is now gone.

Now back to our regularly scheduled blogram.

1st direct impact the economic situation has on me

One of my vendors emailed today. I’ve been working with them for eight years and I valued them as a supplier. They’re closing on November 24th.

This sucks. I have a few suppliers in this category but I don’t like hearing that my choices are dwindling.
