Yes indeed, things are moving fast here at Empty Room Blog.

As I continue to wait for my needed user account, I am taking certain steps regarding this webspace. As we speak, I am downloading the free ‘pmachine’ blogging software. I have already coughed up $5 to rent some server space to run the software at getmeonline.net. After doing so, I realized that they are based out of Dublin and Barcelona, which means it’s something like 7 in the morning there and my account ain’t going to get activated for a little while. Yes, that’s right. I am now waiting on account activations.

But progress is being made. I am conducting further reserach into the live-audio-stream. Once I have set up pmachine I have plans for a rotating photo, qoute and link gallery. And there may even be a name change in the works. Just as soon as I think of a better name.

Of course, all that depends on Mr. Lu and his imaginary friend (whose empty desk he pointed at as part of his “I need his help and he’s not here” plea when I angrily confronted* him earlier) taking a very long time processing my account indeed. But that’s not impossible.

*by ‘angrily confronted’, I guess I mean ‘knocked politley on his door, waited for a few undergrads to finish speaking with him, and then politely brought the subject up before thanking him for his time’. But next time I’m not going to be so easy to get rid of.
