Blaize.net was hacked… and google is reporting my site as badware… I think I’ve got it fixed up for the most part, but that does not repair the damage done to the site’s reputation otherwise.

I suppose this is the official launch of my 365 Project. In case your wondering, a 365 project is when a person makes a daily installment for one year for something… in my case, it’s photography. I started this project as a concerted effort to improve my photography composition so I set a constraint on myself: my mobile phone which is an el-cheapo Nokia 2730 classic. This guy has a fixed focal length lens and virtually no post-processing  capabilities built into the phone, so what you see is what you get. I also opted to post only from the phone such that I won’t be tempted to post-process on a computer. I hope these constraints force me to think creatively about the composition of the image. The image quality isn’t the best in the world, but I suppose it’s good enough. So browse over to 365.blaize.net to take a look. I also syndicate it on Facebook.

It’s about time I came to the 21st century…I mobilized blaize.net using a nifty plugin called WPTouch. It’s free, easy to use, and works with just about every mobile device known to man… Here’s a screen shot from my iPod Touch.

Just vacating. I will resume posting tomorrow with a Photo Friday post.

I’ve made some minor changes to the blog…mostly just some tweaks.

• Dumped the Twitter feed…I’m not really into micro-blogging, and it was messing up search engine crawls too.
• Added a Contact page. Now you can spam me.
• Prettied up the tag cloud, and made it work better with Internet Explorer.
• Did some Search Engine Optimization (SEO) stuff…hopefully I’ll show up in more searches. If you link to me, it helps…
