I have been busy designing the new theme for this website and the result is in front of you. Blogohblog [dot] com has got a brand new theme for itself (I call it bob on fire!). Hurray!
I have made the layout of the website more organized with more compatibility for IE 6.0 and for people working on the 1024×768 resolution. Also, you will see the last five WordPress themes on the top in a slideshow (jQuery). The plugoo chat was inevitable, so had to create space for that too on the left side. The logo has changed a bit, and yes, I think it looks much better now. I have put also pagination on the bottom for easy reading of the posts. And finally, added a little fire to make things hot!
I will be tweaking some more stuff while you browse the website so just bear with me. And yeah, let me know what you think of this new template!

Written by Jai on January 11, 2008 – 6:34 pm - 2,142 views
A while back, I had posted news about server troubles and this website slowing down for two full days. During that time, I contacted Shinjiru Hosting company (I had them as my host because Bob was already hosting this website with Shinjiru). The tech support really sucks at Shinjiru because they literally forced me to switch to their VPS hosting by saying that my site had grown too big (that was not really the case which I found out later). I did that and guess what, the very next day they declared that I must switch to their level II VPS hosting which was even costlier. So, I did that. End of story.
To my surprise, I would never have found out how Shinjiru was ripping me off, if I hadn’t tried Hostgator to host my website two weeks back. Their shared hosting is far far better than Shinjiru’s VPS hosting (supposed to be level II of some sort). One of the posts on this website even got stumbled a lot during the last one week but there was absolutely no slowdown. Cheers to Hostgator!
What makes this episode even more entertaining is the following piece of chat today with their support coordinator who goes by the e-mail : traxport [at] msn [dot] com. Just observe how calm they are, even when they totally suck at hosting.
