Moved to a New Host & .net to .com

nettocom

Recently, I have changed my host which brought about lots of other things to do. Since I started publishing my website in 2006, I was using emiraydin.net as my primary domain because someone got .com before me in 2005. I acquired .com domain in late 2007 and redirected it to .net. So, .com was redirecting to .net for past 3 years. However, I instantly decided to use .com as my primary and left my worries about PageRank, SEO, etc. behind. I am now using .htaccess 301 redirect from .net domain to .com domain which relieved  my SEO concerns. From now on, emiraydin.com will be my primary domain.

Also, I’ve played with the code of the think bubble on the top of the webpage because the script could not get my Twitter status when Twitter was down and thus was causing a fatal error. I wrote a new script for that which will tell when Twitter is down instead of giving meaningless error messages causing to a mess in whole webpage’s view.

In addition to these recent changes, you will also see me setting up new projects very soon.

I have created my new the Beatles playlist, and listening to it frequently. Don’t take the rankings in order since I love all of these songs, but I love the ones at the top more : )
Without further ado, here are my top Beatles songs:

1. While My Guitar Gently Weeps
2. All My Loving
3. All You Need is Love
4. Hey Jude
5. I’ve Just Seen a Face
6. I Me Mine
7. Strawberry Fields Forever
8. Across the Universe
9. Come Together
10. A Day in Life (also listen to Jeff Beck’s solo version, it’s cool)

End of the McGill Frosh Week, Classes Begin

McGill Frosh

I arrived at Montreal on August 21st, and I have been experiencing lots of orientation activities for past week. It was an awesome beginning; I met lots of people that I will be dealing for next 4 years. These were the activities I was in:

August 23 – Rez Fest
August 24 – Discover McGill & Street Fest
August 25,26,27 – Science Frosh Mardi Gras
August 28,29 – SSMU Frosh

I just toured around the city with my friends on August 30&31. Signed up for the gym, looked for the buildings where my classes will take place. Tomorrow is the day! Classes begin! After 5 days of laziness of the frosh week!
