IsmailFarouk.com

Last week I received an email from Blogger informing me that they are discontinuing the Blogger ftp service for custom blogs. It seems the service was not required by the majority of blogger blogs with only 0.5% of all blogs  hosted independently.

Unfortunately, my blog was one of the 0.5% and so the end of ftp support has meant the end of the blogger platform for ismailfarouk.com. The problem presented my web guru, Babak fakhamzadeh with a serious challenge and after some extremely geeky dreams, he concluded that migration to the Wordpress platform was the solution.

So its my absolute pleasure to launch the new ismailfarouk.com website – now using the Wordpress platform. There are some significant functional changes to the site but Babak has retained the overall look and feel of the old website. So far, the migration to Wordpress has gone fairly smoothly, thanks to dedicated support from Mastababa.

1001 thank you’s to Mastababa – Still the coolest traveling web guru by far!
