If you have tried to subscribe to my site’s feeds today, you’ll have found out that they aren’t working. AddThis appears to be fully down right now, and if it isn’t back up soon, I will need to butcher them up some so that I can get them up and running. If you want to still subscribe to a feed, use the below links for now; It’s the same destination as the others, it just provides you a direct link to the feeds.
As well, I am in the process of moving, so likely for the next week the site will be a little slow beyond the daily 15-Minute Reviews. Stay tuned for future articles, reviews and more!

Hello all! If you may or may not have noticed, the site was having some slowness issues. I reset the servers and all is running smoothly now. From what I can see, the issues were only for a few moments before I caught the issues, so no major problems.
On that note, I’d like to also mention that I’ve added more products to my online store for you that I have personally used and recommended. Each has a short review attached as well for your reading pleasure. With time, I will add more. If you’d like to support BladedThoth.com, this is a good alternative as well, as since you get something out of the deal that I personally use myself and recommend as well.

With a month of hammering out the CMS into a form I much more preferred including my own flair, I bring you (albeit not 100 percent complete… Yet) the new BladedThoth.com.
With the new version of BladedThoth.com, you may have noticed some of the new areas, most of which are not quite up yet due to lack of content so far. This brings my site more inline with my true goals for the website; A personal stomping grounds for all which I involve in. There is a blog section (Which I have given an option to avoid by RSS if you really want to miss the great content there); an reviews section including my exclusive 15-Minute Reviews as well as room to expand into full reviews when time permits; an articles and tutorials section where I will let known my theories, tips & tricks and more in the future; a blog section for ramblings, comments on sites and more which may not normally fit into the other categories; easier access to the forums for discussing all of my website as well as other discussions (I prefer forums – It is a lot easier to track and manage than comments on every single page, especially when you’re talking dozens of pages a month and in my opinion develops better conversations); as well as an information and downloads section to expand into in the future when I start publishing some of my personal works.

For those of you who haven’t noticed the changed forums, there’s change in the wind. A site redesign is underway, and I’m almost to a point to where I need to start putting it live to finish. Over the next few days, there may be some site wonkiness to come. While I will attempt to keep the changes as sane as possible, there is a lot to the backend that is changing and will be based on how fast I can change the code out (With what I am using, its not as easy as it sounds unfortunately.) I will keep the downtime to a minimum during the daytime so that my 15-Minute Reviews will be kept up for my peak times. Please be patient while I upgrate the site for the better.
Thanks!
