Every Day Should Start With a Smile :)

Enjoy!

I didn't completely fail myself.

Well, for my first post I figured I might as well point out some areas of improvement I have. Today I tried to set up my own custom URL on my cargo collective website. I had to pay Cargo $66 for an upgraded membership, then $25 to GoDaddy to register my domain name (www.saraheven.com). It takes two days to process so I won't know if I've failed until 48 hours from now!

I figured since Cargo is for people that are not technology inclined that this process would be simple. WRONG. So it has step by step instructions but the terms they are using are foreign to me. DNS, A Records, CNAME, etc. So I google them, learn what they stand for, but am still not able to understand where I go to "change" all of these terms.

Eventually I think I figured it out. We will see, I suppose. Right now I feel slightly proud that I found my own way around the issues I faced, but I am not completely confident that I succeeded....yet. Oh, I also did this all while maintain concentration on the movie, Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets. :)

Tarin will be back from work soon and maybe she can point me in the right direction as far as this website stuff goes. I spent around $90 today on it, so I better at least figure it out before it expires in two years! Wish me luck.
