So, I managed to finish one of the websites I wanted to finish last week. I got started on the second but just didn’t quite find the time to finish it. It happens. Beyond that the CSS Reboot is almost here, and while I have an idea of what I want to do I don’t [...]

Just finished one of the two websites I planned on having finished this week. Got a little behind, as well as got a few other things on my plate, but I might be able to pull it off. The next site, for the most part has all the layout done on it so now I [...]

So I decided to sign up for the CSS Reboot 06. Hopefully I’ll actually make the deadline, which is May 1st, but I figure this is a good way to get myself around to actually making a new look for my site, which I’ve been trying to do for the past few months. I mean [...]

So I finally decided to set up my own flickr account today. Why? Because of the new phone and the ability to just upload photos to flickr as I take the pictures. I guess I’ve just held out until now because a) my digital camera has been dead for a few years and so haven’t [...]

Turned off trackbacks today…. I wasn’t sure if I should feel honored or what, but I was getting spam trackbacks and I’d rather not hurt my google ratings, as non-existant as they may be because of something like that. Comments should still work fine though.

I got the first round of pictures up in the images section. Just got those today from Graduation a few months back. Thanks Vito!

Ever since hearing about the power toy for tablet’s that let you create your own font from your handwriting I wanted to get one. Well I have one and created a couple of fonts because I have different ways that I write. Well last night I decided I should use that font on my blog [...]

So wow, I learned quite easily today while I was working on my syntax highlighter that I need to learn how to use regular expressions quite a bit better. In fact I would say I just need to learn them. I was able to piece together what I needed to do, but it probably should [...]

So I’ve spent a good bit of time today upgrading Dean Allen’s Textile to do a little bit more with code since that is something I use alot in my blog. Namely extending it to syntax highlight for other languages because frankly I don’t feel the need to grab another plugin when I can just [...]

So I’m slowly but surely trying to piece back together my website, it’s a slow process especially given that I’m moving from asp.net to php as well as doing it all on top of wordpress instead of writing everything myself. Granted there is still a lot of work to be done to extend wordpress but [...]
