I will be hosting images, technical information, and what not at my personal website, however I intend to post periodic blog updates through this site. Mostly thoughts, observations, and 'goings on'.
See website at:

Comcast based home pages use to be absolutely horrid, but it seems to be improving.
If you are a Comcast person, skip their default page formats. Use your own and upload them. I have been using Microsoft Visual Web Developer 2005 Express. It is free and quite functional. Probably not quite as flashy as other progs, but it works great for me. If you are lazy, like me, to build a page from scratch.. there are plenty of freeware webpage templates out there you can snag and build from.
I found a strangely named one which worked great for me.. named 'spaceflight is boring'.
I am currently tweaking/tuning a newly obtianed Losmandy G-11 mount. So far it is working great! The next step is to get my darn laptop working with it. Having problems with a USB->Serial adapter. It doesn't want to talk to the Skywalker2 system.
Expect infrequent updates until warmer weather moves in and I get the kinks worked out. After that I'll be going full bore imaging with the CCD camera.
Keep looking up!
