My web host blocked my site for about an hour because of the traffic surge it encountered and is using above the 10% limit for cpu resources. Good thing, Eugene is kind and helpful enough in unblocking my site and allowed me to fix my site by deactivating some plugins and by using the temporary default wordpress theme for the mean time so as to lessen the use of wordpress plugins.

Quoted from Marhgil’s: How about you, do you already have your own Privacy Policy? You can just copy mine if you want, just edit the pertinent information to make it suit your site. Or you can use this Privacy Policy generator for a more formal one.
At last, I have finally upgraded my blog’s wordpress 2.2.1 version to wordpress 2.3.3 version. Nothing easy but it was an experience.
Be back soon…. more one my new WordPress theme layout. Happy Valentine’s Day to all!
