Balcells Blog Home

Pretty good travel article about Cincinnati in the NYTimes, I know well almost all the places it mentions from the years I lived there

Done some cleaning up around the apartment, and caught up on bills and such. I am charging my old BB curve because I never finished transferring all my phone numbers, so i occasionally get txt messages on the iphone and I can't tell who it is.

I also played around with the database behind the blog and optized its size. Seemed like way too large (20 Mb) for the amount of data it contained, I got it down to 3 Mb compressing certain tables. The blog should now load faster and be more responsive.
