Anyone that has been around here reading this blog before will remember that I had migrated from WinXP to various flavors of Linux in an attempt to settle in with an OS (operating system) that would work well with my design work and general duties such as pictures, videos, image editing, graphic creation and site work. A lot of things happened along the way that headed me in the direction I’m in now with Ubuntu’s Hardy Heron.

Windows’ constant ability to freeze or crash right in the middle of a project was one of my main reasons for looking elsewhere for stability.

Evidently, a lot is at stake in a name. Especially the name of a web site. It (hopefully) should be easy to remember, roll off the tongue and be kinda catchy. With all the sites out there today, this is no easy feat!

There are literally millions of web sites on the internet today. Millions! There are going to be headaches in store for anyone trying to come up with a good, catchy domain name these days. A fella by the name ofDave Zan has loads of good info on domain names and is a good source for those who are looking for that just right domain name. I touched on this subject in a previous post but as for the reason why it’s being repeated again, well…I’ve decided to change the name of this one yet again.

Yes, I know. It will wreak havoc on the SEO but The Mystic Bird just sounds so right to me. So, the change is imminent. Just a matter of time. May re-work the overall look too when it’s all over and done. We’ll see. ;)
