Auckland is an amazingly beautiful place to live. Beautiful views, clean air, next to no litter in most places, nice cool weather… In a lot of ways, it reminds me of Vancouver, BC, but with more of a small town feel. Here are some more amazing views we had. From New Zealand From New...

Fahim and I have had a VPS – virtual private server – with SLHost.com for a while. A year and a half, maybe two years? In the beginning, the service was good. The last half year, however, it’s gone downhill. Fast. We experienced some problems with the server about a half year ago, so...
