Yup, along with the upgrade, which restored the widget sidemenu, I found a new theme I liked.

Its called Mandigo and what’s really neat about it is the level of configuration that the author’s built in. Currently I’m using the default look, but there’s about 5 or 6 to switch between via a radiobutton list, and there’s options for including your own header image, date format. The works.

Well, I picked up Lord of the Rings Online last week, as I mentioned before. I’ve now actually had a chance to sit and play it (busy week), and I’ve been really enjoying myself. I’ve tried a lot of MMORPGs, and until now the only one that really sucked me in was City of Heroes.

Lord of the Rings Online seems great fun though. The tutorials throw in some familiar characters as NPCs to get you started, and its reasonably solo-friendly, which suits me. There’s no compass for your missions, which takes some getting used to, but the directions in the quests are usually ok. I’ve been enjoying it a lot so far, playing through the early elven quests. It’ll be interesting once I head over to the Shire, and the village of Bree, and see if I start to meet more NPCs from the books.

I’ve just finished upgrading the blog to version 2.2. There were a few neat features (the Sidebar widgets are now builtin), so I figured I’d go for it.

Hopefully there won’t be any issues from the upgrade. *crosses fingers*
