Deep Keel

Cutting through the turbulent waters of blog commentary and analysis.

Vacation Time!

I'm off for a summer vacation so there will be no posting here until I'm back in a week or so.  Hope everyone is having a great summer!

Happy Easter

I hope everyone has a very happy Easter day with whatever friends and family they can gather together.  Don’t eat too much after you get back from church. 

Deep Keel Now Has an Icon

Long in the waiting it has been, but the day finally came at last that Deep Keel got an icon that shows up at the top of your browser.  If you use Firefox it will show up automatically on the address bar and in your bookmarks after you use them.  If you use Internet Explorer […]

Testing a New Layout

What do you think?  This layout is a merging of elements from two different released Wordpress themes, Butterfly/Laila and Red is Nice.  Butterfly forms the modified skeleton with significant graphical enhancements from Red is Nice.  And a lot of really detailed tweaking and a little work editing images.  It is not 100% finished but I […]

Deep Keel Layout Changing Soon

I’ve been investigating new layouts for Deep Keel, and considering some other technology upgrades and changes at the same time.  I am not yet certain which layout I will settle on and will likely try a few out over the next week or so to see how they feel.  I’ll put up a post each […]

Sorry for the Blog Being Down

Deep Keel is getting some upgrades which involve necessary downtime.  Some of the large ISP routers in this region were out for a while today so this seemed like a good time to do take the site down.  Most of it is done, though there may be a bit more downtime tomorrow.  Thanks for you […]

Thanks to all the visitors who came by to check out the blog since Octoboer 2004 when I started it!  Deep Keel had its 10,000th visitor much sooner that I had thought would be the case when I began.  For that matter I’m just glad anybody found the thing!  I hope you enjoyed your visit […]

Comment Rules

Comment traffic is up and it seems I need to clarify the rules for commenting on this blog.  After checking around a bit to see how others are handling it I have decided to use a modified set of rules I found on Austin Bay’s blog, which he originally copied from Donald Sensing’s site.

Merry Christmas!

Been busy the last few days, I will get back to blogging here shortly.  I hope everyone had a very merry Christmas!

Sorry for the light posting

I have had the flu the last few days and I am finding it hard to draw the mental energy needed to think of something worth posting.  I’ll pick up when this finally passes and I get some sleep at last.

Today Deep Keel had its 1000th visitor!  In comparison to other blogs this is vanishingly insignificant, but I’m grateful and happy to have gotten this far.  Starting just over a month ago I had no idea if anyone at all would find my blog, or come back if they did.
I’m still learning and working on […]

Pardon For the Mess

My blog is new and I am still trying to find the layout and style I like best.  So if you find the site quite different than you last saw it don’t be shocked.  Comments are welcome!
