BONTB Deserves to be Mentioned
February 29, 2008
It's perhaps too long since I last posted any article on the web design or blogging topic. Today I decide to break the ice by mentioning a blog that I think deserve to be mentioned. It's Blog or Not to Blog (BONTB.com). I haven't visited BONTB for a while and I notice the blog is still active and with more great tips. I just made a few comments on that blog and so I decide to write a review about it here.

The Future of Binh dot Name
January 23, 2008
I've been busy these few days and haven't post as many useful posts as I should. My apologies for that. I would like to restate a few reasons here and I hope to receive your suggestions. The reasons are:
- This blog is being redesigned.
- New sub domains or domains are coming up.
- The URL structure is not finalized.
If you are kind-hearted, knowledgeable and give me suggestions, I will have rewards for you too. Don't worry, the minimum I could give you are some good keyword back links to your site from my PR3 blog. I'm not rich now so my pocket money is limited. I can make some nice award if what you give change my life.

New Look for My WordPress Blog for 2008
December 28, 2007
Christmas is getting over and New Year is coming. The seasonal theme is getting out-dated soon in a week or so. Also, my blog Binh dot Name is growing from few unique visitors to average 50 per day. I really need a brand new unique look for a professional image.
So far I've been holding back writing and promoting my blog and asked myself Should I Migrate to WordPress MU?. Since then I made the decision to Migrate to WordPress MU and then finally Successfully Migrated to WordPress MU.

Migrating to WordPress MU
December 9, 2007
I waited too long and the consequence is growing big. Have you read the article Should I Migrate to WordPress MU? Well, regardless of what others are saying, I'm going to migrate because:
- I found out that the migration process is not that easy. The links will break even though I was using ugly permalink.
- The longer I wait, the more posts I will have, hence the more trouble when migrating.
- I'm holding back on writing personal thoughts, which lead to lack of communication with family and friends.
