New Job<\/h3>\r\n

Last week, I was finally offered a full time job as a web developer\/designer with one of the best web development companies I’ve found in Australia. HotHouse Interactive<\/a> have a strong focus on standards compliance and accessibility; and, although their own homepage is ill-formed XHTML served as text\/html<\/code> with a few other mistakes, they do a reasonably good job of seperating the presentation from the structure and content with relatively semantic markup.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

My first impressions, after having worked there as part of a contract role for the last 3 weeks, have been very positive. I’m sure I’ll learn a lot from working there and I believe they’ll also learn a lot from me, now that I’ve become permanent.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

Hosting Plan<\/h3>\r\n

It seems the traffic to my site has steadily increased over the last few months. I exceeded my 3GB bandwidth limit on the final day of last month and I was getting very close to going over again this month, so I decided to upgrade my plan. I now have 10GB of bandwidth, which should suit me well for quite a while.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

I had been putting off upgrading previously due to financial contraints, but now that I have a full time job I should be able to afford a lot more. It has been suggested to me in the past that I consider using advertisements to help pay for this site, but my current feeling is that I hate advertisements and to do so would be hypocritical of me. I may one day consider other alternatives, such as accepting donations, but at this stage, I have no plans for that.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"I’ve been offered a new job and I’ve upgraded my web hosting plan.","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[16],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/lachy.id.au\/log\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/80"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/lachy.id.au\/log\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/lachy.id.au\/log\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lachy.id.au\/log\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lachy.id.au\/log\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=80"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/lachy.id.au\/log\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/80\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/lachy.id.au\/log\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=80"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lachy.id.au\/log\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=80"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lachy.id.au\/log\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=80"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
