Today you’ll notice we’ve added Polls to the site. On the sidebar we have our first poll on “How are we doing?” - feel free to let us know what you think!

I’m sure we’ll be doing some more interesting polls as time goes by.

As you may have already noticed, The Geekery has gotten a minor face lift this evening. We’ve tweaked the site theme fixing some issues regarding text alignment through-out the site. We’ve also enabled a few new things. We’ve enabled the WordPress plug-in Slashdiggilicious so you can quickly “digg” or bookmark this site in numerous web services.

Also: we’ve added a menubar at the top of the site for important links such as our About us page and our brand new Change log page designed to keep track of changes and implementations we do here on the site. You’ll see with tonight’s changes we’re at version 2.0.1 of the site. Yeah we’re using version numbers for the site - we’re geeks remember?

Based on feedback, we’ll be tweaking some graphics including the top header image and adding some new UI enhancements as we move forward. Here on out, I probably won’t post much in the way of site updates unless we make some big changes. We’ll of course update our Change log accordingly though.

Special thanks goes out to Long Zheng for helping with CSS issues this evening.

Just an FYI to our readers that we’re looking to upgrade to WordPress 2.2.2 tonight due to some security fixes. You can read about WordPress 2.2.2 here from Matt.

If the upgrade doesn’t happen tonight, it will most certainly happen tomorrow morning.

UPDATE: Upgrade to WordPress 2.2.2 has been completed. Smooth upgrade as always with WordPress - which is one of the reasons why its such an awesome blogging platform. If you experience any funkiness, leave a comment and we’ll see what we can do.

I’ll be spending some time tweaking the site this weekend so if you experience/see some weirdness, its probably due to me messing around with stuff. Just an FYI to our readers.
