Hi folks,

I have a VPS I am using coffeemud on it and I am looking for a site administrator.

I have plugged in Ubuntu and did the java thing, but I am in need of someone
who  is a wiz at this!   I can do things but it takes me forever. Help files
are my friend, but there is that person out there who just smiles knowingly and mutters an incantation, and boom, things work!

I am doing game design, writing files, working on the book at the same time.
Unix is kicking my ass.
This is making me babble, as you can rightly tell!

So, if you can direct me to someone who, list that does, your aunt's step neases cousin Jane, if they know unix, and knows at least what java is, I'd be forever grateful.

See, writing was mentioned in the email so just sort of off topic.

Write On,
Creativily yours,
Atty

Phyllis it is sooo easy. And, what I like about it is that no one has to be
a "member" to get into your blog. A couple of other sites I know of and
checked out require a reader to be "registered" with them in order to be
able to read or leave messages on your blog. That is not so good, because
sometimes a person does not want to be registered, they just want to have a
look at your blog without the hassle.

Here is where to go to see it:

http://www.blogger.com

It is BLOGGER, and then after you have a blog there, it is at "blogspot dot
com" that is the end of your blog address. But, you go to blogger dot com to
write your blog, edit it or whatever you want to do. That is where your
"Dashboard" is.  Yes, Phyllis, you definitely can get a lot more attention
to your books by writing a blog. I love doing it.

Lynda.

>>> appreciated. I would really like to make my entries more professional
