mod_rewrite

And so much for getting down to writing. Had to write a redirect to a more secure page because the russian spammers were getting through an older script and being a CMS it was hard and dangerous to remove it.
So I'm hoping the old script now redirects ok to the new captcha secured form.

Still it was somewhat sucessful just until recently and required these mods...

What mods - well the following

Its great to be writing again

I have been focusing too much on technology and it has drained my time. Though I have some help these days with the websites sometimes coordinating it makes me feel like its almost not worth it.
Except one guy who has real enthusiasm initiative and surprises me often. I am of course trying to get him on more and more as much as the site can afford.

Still here is an excerpt from the travel blog 10 of worlds top places to go Backpacking Part 1

1) Australia. If its not on the East coast North coast South coast or West coast its to the centre of the biggest island in the world to visit Ayers Rock. I didn’t make Ayers rock myself as I was under too much budget pressure and yes its amazing but it felt as far away as New Zealand. Australia though has cities with dynamic nightlife for the young great wines for the old some of the most fun hostels you are ever likely to find and surf galore. This is what keeps making it the go to destination for many a Backpacker. Its also got massive kudos and you can’t call yourself a backpacker if you haven’t been !

2) Japan. The first myth is that its expensive – not so and the youth hostels or just plain hostels (house some oldies like me now) in style with private rooms and sturdy lockers its all very Japan works every time. Ride across the swathes unique and interesting countryside in the Shinkanson at break neck speed while the crew serve up service with a bow. The karaoke bars are amazing fun. Check out the natural north at anytime of year but in winter you had better go for the powder. Its like no other on earth. Sapporo is the main city in the north. Tokyo will be your gateway and it’s a neon lit treasure trove. You see the greatest thing about Japan is that something every half an hour will amaze you.
