Hi, all. First off, I apologize for not spending much time in this space over the past couple of months. If you’ve followed my blog activities (and inactivity!), you know that on October 22, I accepted a position as marketing and media director at one of the Assemblies of God’s…
Site Outages
I apologize for any difficulty you’ve had recently connecting to the site. This blog is hosted on a shared server at SiteGround.com. Unfortunately, when you’re on a shared box you suffer along with hundreds of other providers whenever someone gets spammed, DDOSed, or hit by a runaway process or script.…
New Feature: In-Line Editable Comments
Hello, Gentle Readers. If you’re part of the one-percenters who comment here from time-to-time you might be happy to know that I have enabled a feature to edit comments after you’ve posted them, and you don’t even have to leave the page! (Thanks to Ronald Huereca.) Come on, leave a…
Yet more PneumaBloggedy Goodness: PneumaWidget, Power Reader and More!
In a mad dash of creative craziness, a few more things have popped up on the PneumaBlogs tool-set. So, for your blog-reading enjoyment, here’s a quick summary of everything not covered in my previous post (“PneumaBlogs, PneumaSphere, PneumaSearch“). FireFox Search Plug-in First off, fellow PneumaBlogger Christoph Fischer (“my cup of…
PneumaBlogs, PneumaSphere, PneumaSearch
In case you haven’t noticed, over the past several days I’ve been trying to bring my “Pneuma” pages up-to-snuff within the new design and to make them all a bit more usable. Just now I’ve added a third page to my collection: PneumaSearch. Yes, that’s right, I’ve gone crazy with…
Blog Flux, Redux
Sorry for the thrashing around on the blog lately. I’ve got too many plugins running here, so I’m pulling a lot of stuff off the server, cleaning junk up, and trying to get things running faster, faster, faster. This’ll probably mean another change in themes. Whatever theme you see now…
More PneumaBloggers
Just a very quick note to say that I’ve updated the PneumaBlogs list in recent days to include some stellar new names, including:
Christoph Fischer ( My Cup of Coffee )
David Copeland ( Re…
Using Windows Live Writer (beta)
Okay, so I’m trying out the Windows Live Writer — because I’m a sucker for new tools and I’m always on the lookout for the better (free) blogging tool. Besides, Amy at GentleWhisper made me do it. … Installation The install went okay … the second time. The installer wants to…
New year, new design.
Since we’re a year older here at the BlogRodent’s bolt-hole on the Web (I use the royal “We,” of course, any blame accruing from this blog is entirely mine–my wife happily observes), I thought it’d be a good time to effect a complete redesign. My WordPress install has gone from…
Subscribing to BlogRodent by email
I just realized that my subscription tool for subscribing to BlogRodent by email was dysfunctional. So, I’ve fixed it and wanted to let you know. If you’re a regular reader of this blog and don’t use a feed reader to monitor the site, you can still catch all the blogalicious…
Battling Referrer Spam with WordPress
For some reason, my weblog became the target of hundreds of referrer spam hits from pornographic websites over the last week or so. I keep an eye on my referrer logs (a record of URLs that generated traffic to my site), and lately a bunch of URLs showed up which…
Plugins used on Blogrodent
Updated: See, instead, a live list of plugins, here. For any who care, here are the plugins currently in use here on BlogRodent. I turned off BAStats for a while to improve performance, but then installed WP-Cache and performance improved so dramatically I’ve turned it back on for a test.…
Most popular blog posts in 2005
I thought I’d take a look back on the last six months, since I began blogging here, and see which of my posts received the most attention from you, my patient readers. The results are in, and I am dutifully sharing them, despite the fact that this post will only serve to draw more…
Assemblies of God newsfeeds
I’ve added a page of RSS links and email newsletter links for official Assemblies of God news outlets (and a couple unofficial). This includes links to the AG-News newsletter, Dan Betzer’s “ByLine,” and several new Women’s Ministries newsletters that look good. If you’re interested, see: Assemblies of God newsfeeds It’s…
Blog Flux Complete!
Okay. I’ve finally completed the transition of TatumWeb, ChurchRodent, TypeRat, and BlogRodent, and everything else off of HostedToday and now onto the exalted servers at midPhase. I was frustrated with HostedToday early on because the support staff were hired anonymous technicians one or two continents and three or four language groups away…
Blog Flux Coming
Sorry, folks, but there’s going to be some blogflux over the next couple days as I move from my current web host to a new one. Hopefully, when the move is complete, we’ll have a much faster and more stable service. More later. Rich.

About me…
For all the curious, I’ve been remiss in adding an “About” page to this blog. I’ve finally done so. Find it here, or in the navigation area to the right.
Pneumablogs updated
I’ve been adding a few links here and there when I find them. So, check back to see what’s new. Also, I’ve updated the ordering of the list so that the newest items float to the top of the list. PneumaBlog: Pentecostal & Charismatic & Assembly of God Blogs [tags]BlogRodent,…
Pneumablogs updated.
Hi. I’ve performed some major updates to the Pneumablogs page. I probably have too many personal journal-style blogs represented here, so over time some of the links may be dropping off. See, especially, my comments at the end of the page regarding “cat” blogs and “boss” blogs.
Pneumablog has been posted.

Blog tech and blog updates
Blog Feed Changes, Notification by Email, and My Blog Tools.
New feed for site updates.
I just created a new category for general site updates, so all you IPTools, ANSIRodent, and ChurchRodent users can keep up-to-date on the latest changes—of which there have not been many of late. Hopefully, that will change. Subscribe directly to the category feed here. — Rich. [tags]BlogRodent, site-updates[/tags]
This is easy.
Never realized how easy it is to set up a blog with WordPress. This is pretty sharp. Now, let’s see if I can come up with something to write about. Of course, this being the first post of the blog, there’s literally nothing to write about except yet further inane…
