Head Rambles Unplugged

February 11th, 2012

I have been tinkering around in the basement of this site again.

It is pretty murky and dusty down there, but in one corner I found a whole load of things plugged in.  They all do different things.  Some do really important things, like providing snow at Christmas [which I have never used] while others have more mundane tasks like keeping spammers out.  However I haven’t a fucking clue what most of them do.

The problem is that there so many of these plugin things that it is a right mess in the basement with extension leads plugged into extension leads, and plugs and cables everywhere.  In other words, it’s a right fire hazard.

Another problem is that all these yokes have been slowing the site right down and we all know the modern obsession for speed?

I have been unplugging various things to see what effect they have, or as the case may be, haven’t.  According to one of the little plugin thingies the site is running a good deal faster now.  The only problem is that I don’t know what the things I unplugged are supposed to do.

So if something you think should be there isn’t there, could you let me know?

Or if something is there that you think shouldn’t be there, you can tell me about that too?

You see, I wouldn’t know, as I never read this site myself.

I have better things to be doing with my life.
