New Lenses, New Weather
by John Wilson Due to accidental mishap, I was forced to shop for a new lens for my camera. I dropped my 18 – 55mm “kit” lens that came with my Canon XSi. It was a great little lens that met it’s maker too soon. To replace the lens I started on amazon.com and [...]
Aerosmith Tampa Cancelled
by John Wilson I probably should have known. A 7.5 hour road trip to see a band of 60 year olds is a bad idea. Not to mention it was on the same night as UFC 100, arguably the best UFC card in the history of the sport. There was no way I [...]
Are you John Wilson?

About nine months ago this blog was the first link on page two, and then for some unexpected reason I moved all the way down to page six. That was incredibly disheartening, [...]
John Wilson Blog – The Last 365 Days
I can’t seem to get the database out of godaddy, so I’m going to sum up everything I wrote about last year, in reverse order, in a few posts (which is kinda sad I guess): Before I was listed on Google there were 109,000,000 posts in front of me (I still need a logo) Seth [...]
whereisjohnwilson.com is now on WordPress
We’re up and running. From blogger to WordPress. Now I need to figure out how to move the old stories over. The import tool on WordPress seems easy enough. But I can’t figure out how to get the content out of the mysql database at GoDaddy. Argh.
