Just a short post. I hope everyone had a great Christmas. I’m currently sitting in Orlando and will be returning home for the new year.
Pictures to come in the next few weeks so keep watching the Flickr feed!

RikeMedia Update!
I know I’ve been a little lax on blogging recently. All will be revealed. I’ve had a fairly large amount of uni work to do plus lots of Rike related work going on!
So, whats been going on? Well the first thing, WebmasterStash had a refurb, and merged with another webmaster community, giving us a much larger array of content in the forums. I decided to close the main site as we simply didn’t have time to add new tutorials, templates and scripts due to work and life commitments. I think we tried biting off more than we could chew with WebmasterStash. Anyway, take a look at the new site (well, forums) and feel free to provide some feedback!
Next up, CLUBdb. This is still a fairly secretive project so I cant go into much detail at the moment. All I can say is that its being backed by a large club in the UK. CLUBdb is to fill a huge void in the market and provide some fantastic features. This probably makes no sense at all due to its secrecy…but don’t worry. It will make plenty of sense soon!
Mike has been working hard at a new Rike script. He started off working on a download manager, much like FMDeluxe (if anyone reading this can remember that far back! :p). However decided that his time would be better spent on a non open-source script, that way it could be marketed and licensed out to other companies. Mike is now working on an e-commerce based script with some fantastic new features that rival some of the best shopping carts out there!
The RikeMedia website will also be making a return soon with a new design and company blog. We will be issuning press releases and updates on projects, plus have sections showing what services and products are offered by the company.
Well I think thats about it for now. I’ll be launching the WSDReg Christmas promotion in the next few days and will be offering some fantastic offers! Be sure to keep your eyes on WSDReg.com for the full details!
Moving Time!
Well as some regular readers already know, I’m about to start my first year at the University of Hertfordshire, studying Computer Science. Last week I got a letter to confirm my place so we opened a bottle of bubbly to celebrate before going to Scotland for a week (See flickr for photos!).
I’ve now started the mammoth task of moving from one room, to another…why you ask? To fit in 2 brand new desks! I was all prepared to put them in the current room, just about to go and buy them and did a final measurement of where they were going to go….only to find they weren’t going to fit! So I’m now moving to a MUCH bigger room, with lots of space for the desks. I decided whilst I was at it I may as well go all out and get wooden/laminate flooring put in too. So today I’ve gotta get everything out of my room (which is currently pretty cluttered with total crap so its gotta be a good thing!)
So, once I’ve moved in to my new room, I’ll post some pics of the workspace. I know members over at the MacRumors forums love seeing other peoples work spaces (and I have to say, so do I) for inspiration, so that should make a few people happy!
So yeah, that’s about it…I know this post probably wont interest many people, but I’m excited and had to air that excitement somewhere! (Yes, I can be sad :p)
Oops! Sorry about that!
Just a quick note, sorry to anyone who tried accessing the site yesterday or earlier today. I had started moving RickyMills.com back to our VPSLink server after doing a fresh install, however forgot that our nameservers are spread across the two servers, thus it created a conflicting DNS record which sat infront of the existing record.
Wont happen again!
