This Internet Stuff Is Hard

Hey Everyone,

So I don’t know if anyone noticed but our web sit betterthanthemachine.net was down for a few weeks. Apparently we had some bills to pay. You see Reid was always the one who took care of the web sit and he is the owner of the site. Since Reid’s been ill I’ve had to take on those responsibilities. Any way after a little while I finally found all the people who I was suppose to pay and paid them.

You also might have noticed that the featured video picture is not up dated. This is because I don’t have access to our ftp site. Thus, I can’t up date the web site. But I can make blog posts.

You also might have noticed that for the new video, “The Most Nonchalant Man In The World” there is only a link to the youtube page, and not an embedded video like there normally is. This is because there seems to be some sort of a privacy setting on our site where only the admin (Reid) can embed videos. If I put in the html to embed a video the web sit immediately deletes it. But it does allow me to do the html for linking to web sites. This seems very silly to me.

Anyway, you’ll have to bare with us. I hope that answers any questions people might have had. Keep checking back we should have more videos coming soon, and we’re starting to get into doing corporate events (WHOO!) so I hope to post our demo for that with in the next couple of days.

Take care,
Paul
