Hopefully things will die down shortly and reliable email and web performance will be back by the end of the week.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This is my new web presence.</p>
<p>Here you&#8217;ll find updates that are much more varied than my previous endeavour, <a title="XSIBlog" href="http://www.xsi-blog.com" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/article/www.xsi-blog.com');" target="_blank">XSIBlog</a>. There have been many subjects I had been reluctant to cover in the past on XSIBlog because they weren&#8217;t strictly focused on technical computer graphics issues. Hopefully I will be more at ease in covering these issues in my own little corner of the internet.</p>
<p>In a world of <a href="http://www.facebook.com" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/article/www.facebook.com');" target="_blank">increasingly</a> <a href="http://www.linkedin.com" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/article/www.linkedin.com');" target="_blank">numerous</a> <a href="http://www.twitter.com" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/article/www.twitter.com');" target="_blank">social</a> <a href="http://www.orkut.com" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/article/www.orkut.com');" target="_blank">applications</a> this should also act as the hub for my various presences as well as place of experimentation with these tools. Check out the left sidebar for links to my <a href="http://www.twitter.com/pboucher" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/article/www.twitter.com');" target="_blank">various</a> <a href="http://www.linkedin.com/in/patrickboucher" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/article/www.linkedin.com');" target="_blank">presences</a> or the right sidebar for an <a href="http://friendfeed.com/pboucher" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/article/friendfeed.com');" target="_blank">up to the minute feed</a> of whatever I care for.</p>
<p>Why do I say that things are starting off with less than bang&#8230; actually, kind of a fizzle? Well, for the first time in over five years my <a title="Webfaction web hosting" href="http://www.webfaction.com/shared_hosting?affiliate=pboucher" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/article/www.webfaction.com');" target="_blank">provider</a> <a title="Webfaction downtime" href="http://statusblog.webfaction.com/" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outbound/article/statusblog.webfaction.com');" target="_blank">experienced massive downtime</a> on some systems because of an electrical problem and fire in a Texas datacenter. This explains any trouble you folks trying to access XSIBlog may have had.</p>
<p>In closing, have fun and take it easy. See you around.</p>
