I have been really busy the past few days, too busy to blog? Probably not…but I have been really focused on a few projects to learn new technology. My biggest project at has been getting plone customized. I knew it was time to get serious with some solid CMS solution, and plone was the best […]
I have been looking for good Mac (not MAC) OS and UNIX training opportunities and think I finally came up with the missing piece, Big Nerd Ranch. Over the years, I have looked for good training for Mac OS X/Mac OS X Server, Apache, PHP, and other web technologies, but have often come up empty […]
I found something funny on the web today and wanted to share it: http://geektechnique.org/projects/iNO.html. The link is to a web site that makes fun of how the old Apple mouse looks somewhat similar to the iPod. Nice work!
Sometimes I cannot work until I have the perfect desktop picture on my computer, other times, I fight with ugly application interfaces…and working with “gross” interfaces affects me. I am constantly scanning user interfaces, colors, layouts, etc with everything I look at. Cars, computers, street signs, etc. I also spend a great deal of time […]
What is going on here? Adobe announced http://opensource.adobe.com/ which allows the open source community to have access to some of Adobe’s great C++ libraries in the past few days. I am, for the first time in my life, installing a non Apple OS on my PowerBook…Mandrake Linux 10.1. Wow. Sun…your turn…and please do not forget […]
Today, Yahoo! is celebrating their tenth birthday, and to celebrate, they are giving away free ice cream…just print out the coupon! Apache also recently hit their ten year birthday. Good work!
Finally, Sony actually announces SoCom III after months of speculation by fellow SoCom II players. SoCom III will be out sometime next fall and will feature vehicles and all the fixings. More photos are located at IGN’s web site.
I do not usually post anything on the weekends, but I wanted to give my respect to Jef Raskin who died yesterday.

If you find yourself developing more than one web site at home, or anywhere with a *NIX machine with Apache, and want to be able to access all the sites for testing, it is time to set up Virtual Hosts. By using Virtual Hosts, you can access all your web sites easily (especially if you […]
Since moving to WordPress 1.5 I have been getting tons of comment spam, but I finally have a solution. I am using the spam karma plugin. Within a few minutes of installing it I had it up and running, blocking comment spam left and right. In less than 24 hours, I have blocked 72 comment […]
I updated my installation of WordPress to 1.5, and am still working out some problems with some of the plugins that have not been updated yet. I am hoping to get everything working ASAP, but until then, you might notice a few things are a little funky (like my photos). I have also been going […]
