I need a wiki!

Man, there's always so many little things I'd like to put in a wiki... I gotta get my wiki code running. It's really almost done, but I've been working really slow.

On Character Strings

Tim Bray: On Character Strings.

Also see Joel Spolsky's Back to Basics. Yeah, I need to fix the rendering of old posts...

Harmonica

I really want to learn how to play the harmonica. Anyone ever teach themselves? How'd you go about learning?

Loads of stuff about RSS

Via Scott, Expanation of RSS, How You Can Use it, and Finding RSS Feeds.

The importance of labels

Tim Bray:

To oversimplify, XML is winning and ASN.1 is losing. There are a variety of reasons for this, but one of them is that it seems to be more important to know what something is called than what data type it is.

(post title shamelessly stolen from Sam Ruby)

This was the principle behind... well, I can't talk about it.

xhtml:body

Ok, not reading this now, but John Udell has a thing on using xhtml:body. I'm trying to keep this stuff around for whenever I upgrade my RSS feed to version 2.0.

Smarty 2.5.0

Woo, via Jim, Smarty 2.5.0 has been released. Release notes and changelog. Now maybe I'll start using Smarty in my CMS Smiley

CMSimple

Via Martin, check out CMSimple.

But... uh....

simple installation and easy to modify. The entire site is stored in a single HTML-file - there is no need of databases. If you prefer, you may edit your entire site in your favorite HTML-editor, upload the content file and get a dynamic website!

Emphasis mine.

Artima weblogs

Via Simon, Artima weblogs (see announcement).

Tiny C Compiler

Via Martin, check out the Tiny C Compiler.

Phoenix and Minotaur to be renamed Firebird and Thunderbird

Mozillazine: Phoenix and Minotaur to be renamed Firebird and Thunderbird.

Yeah, Firebird is a database system (forked from Interbase, which is Borland's). Hmm...

Anyway, even if you weren't happy about the changes in the Mozilla roadmap, at least everything sounds cooler Smiley

BlogStreet

BlogStreet is cool. Via Scott.

Lucky # 7

Woo hoo, I've moved up to be the lucky number 7'th Keith on Google Smiley winking

New Strong Bad e-mail

Man, I laughed really hard at the newest Strong Bad e-mail. Whew. Thanks Adam.

The Matrix reloaded

Man, I get chills reading anything about the new Matrix movie. Man I'm SO looking forward to it.
