Some new stuff

Dan‘s site is back to normal again. He had a fix in place after about 10 hours, not bad. I’m hoping to find another one soon, but the one I was hoping for doesn’t exist because PHP fixed it. Oh well, right? Dan should keep a score board in his left panel :-).

I ran into Chrissy (my cousin) today. We ran around looking for her u card and a place she could print. It was good to catch up with her and see her more ‘sassy’ hair style. I ran into Nicole (I say Nicole because Nikki links to someone else) (my other cousin) yesterday. We didn’t get to talk as long because I was in a rush to get to class, but yeah, it was good to see her too. We should car pool more.

Busses start again on Monday (more than likely). I’m debating whether or not I’m going to start riding. I should, but I just don’t know.

This afternoon should be pretty good as well. I have lunch with Sim at 1230 and the viewing of the final apprentice episode tonight. That’s cool. I have other various things I need to do this weekend, quite a few actually. Gotta plan some time out to get them all done.

I also went through my error logs, something I don’t normally do. I had noticed on my stats page that people were getting 404’s and I wanted to know why. The two biggest cuplrits: robots.txt and day.php.

robots.txt, for those who don’t know, is the file that search engines use to determine what they shouldn’t spider. I believe that the search engine should spider my entire site, so I built a very simple robots.txt file that looked like this:

User-agent: *
Disallow:

Simple enough right? I could have done more, but this should be enough to get rid of the robots 404 problem. The other one (day.php) is a file from my old site that I should have known better than to just flat our remove. To solve this, I should have picked better URI’s in the first place. However, because I didn’t, php header redirects were the way to go here. In this case the code was one line of php:

header("Location:http://www.rinsefirst.com/");

Those two fixes in place mean that about 99% of my 404’s should go away. Oh, that, and I put in a 404 page. Not a very good one, but one that should get rid of the 404 errors where there was no 404 page :-).

Well, I’m off laterz.
