Look, the blog is back! For those few that keep checking on my site. The server moved and in the process my files got moved to another folder. It turned out to be an easy fix but my life hasn’t been. This has been a busy year filled with travel, divorce and moving.

Now that the blog is back, look for changes at the first of the year. There will probably be a shift in my writing. Until then, have a great Christmas and holiday!!

Good news, the Sagan4 website is back online and virus free. We have been taken off the Google “bad” list and learned a big lesson in keeping wordpress software up to date.

Happy 4th of July everyone!!

I cleaned the blog site, it contained malicious code in each blog post. I updated the blog software and hopefully closed the holes. I resubmitted everything to google so hopefully the site will be unblocked soon. Stupid hackers.

The Sagan4 blog site is showing up in google as being infected with a virus. We have temporarily taken the site down until we can clean it and make sure it’s okay to use. Please bear with us, hopefully it will take just a day or two.

Yes I know that I’m six days late in posting this but better late then never. I know I haven’t posted much here in the last couple of months but I’ve been having a rough time in my real life. Major changes have happened and I’m still adjusting. I’ll try to start posting more and get back on track this year. But for now, I wish anyone reading this a good start to 2010 and hope everything goes well this year.

Back in January I made a resolution to finish some video games that I started. The main game was Knights of the Old Republic (KOTOR). No, I still haven’t finished this game though I did play it a few times. Enough that I forgot where I was and got myself killed a few times. So this game tops the list.

All is not lost though, I did finish Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles.

I have recently discovered another game on the XBox 360 to add to my unfinished list and that would be Portal: Still Alive. In a effort to get organized and finish my goals and games I made a new page called My Games. You can find it at the top of the blog. This has a list of the games I have completed, not completed and still yet to play. I’ll try to update on a regular basis, mostly for my benefit but if your interested in what I play, you can check back.

Now you can have your Facebook photos printed in a book once a month and mailed to you for free!  It’s free because advertisers are paying for most of the service. The ads won’t be printed in the book but there will be in insert for the advertised product included. It can be thrown away. I think this service might become a hit.

HotPrints has launched a new service which eliminates the key barriers to making a photobook, time and money. Beginning now, Facebook and Bebo users have the opportunity to create a free, fun HotBook every month, sponsored by select partners and HotPrints, the web-to-print specialists. By simply logging in, individuals can create and personalise a physical photo book in a few clicks, using photographs not only from their personal collection, but also those of their friends. The easy-to-use drag-and-drop application is a great way to share special memories with friends, family and loved ones at little or no cost.

Each 16-page book picks up the tags from the chosen photos, automatically adding the names and captions under each image. These high-quality photo albums are delivered to the doorstep worldwide, bringing the sharing culture of Facebook offline and into the home. Each book is completely customisable and currently comes in two languages – English and Italian. As an added bonus, users will also receive a free PDF version of their album to digitally share with their friends and family, even if they do not order the print version.
